Research shows that spending 20m with one infected person, you have a 10.4% risk of catching it if you both wear surgical masks.

This goes down to 1.5% if you wear a fitted FFP2 mask, and down to 0.14% risk if you both wear a fitted FFP2 mask.

It’s less likely but still possible to become infected when you’re vaccinated. So it’s still worth testing yourself, and asking the friends/family you meet up with to test themselves too even if they’re vaccinated. ⌘ [Read more](https://twitter.com/MattGrayYES/status/1471083911568674819)

🔹Vaccinate! Have both doses, and a booster if available!

The vaccine is 75% effective against the variant once you’ve had your booster dose too.

Book your vaccine here. You’ll have to wait in a queue like getting gig tickets but it’s worth it.

This evening I ended up in a rabbit hole of UK electricity generation data.

Here’s my interpretation of where the UK’s electricity came from in one half hour period today:

The sky is gloriously clear tonight. If you’re in/around London it’s probably worth finding a nearby hill to look at the view, or looking up at the stars!
