I was delighted to co-chair this conference with Lisa McNeill of @aspertrust.bsky.social
Listen back to learn about this little known debilitating fungal disease #Aspergillosis

Das Bild ist als Hochformat-Poster gestaltet und besteht aus mehreren klar voneinander abgegrenzten Elementen im Comic-Stil: • Oben befindet sich der Schriftzug „Kombiniere…“ in schwarzer, handschriftlich wirkender Comic-Typografie. • Direkt darunter ist der Oberkörper eines Detektivs im Retro-Cartoon-Stil zu sehen: grüner Hut, kariertes Sakko, Krawatte, Pfeife im Mund und eine Lupe vor dem rechten Auge. Hinter seinem Kopf sind gelbe Strahlen dargestellt, die Aufmerksamkeit oder Erkenntnis symbolisieren. • In der Bildmitte steht eine zentral ausgerichtete, vertikale Liste von Krankheits- und Erregerbezeichnungen in fetter schwarzer Schrift, u. a.: Covid-19, Influenza, Common cold, Chickenpox, Measles, Mumps, Adenovirus, Bocavirus, Rubella, Bronchiolitis, Smallpox, Whooping cough, Diphtheria, Legionella, Meningitis, Tuberculosis und Aspergillosis. • Unten links ist derselbe Detektiv erneut abgebildet, diesmal freudestrahlend mit erhobenem Zeigefinger. In der anderen Hand hält er eine FFP2-Maske, gut erkennbar durch die typische Form und die Aufschrift „FFP2“. Auch hier sind gelbe Strahlen und Glanzsymbole um den Kopf dargestellt, die eine gefundene Lösung symbolisieren. • Unten rechts befindet sich die Illustration eines Luftreinigers in modernem Design. Aus der Oberseite strömen stilisierte blaue Licht- und Luftstrahlen nach oben, ergänzt durch kleine Glanzsymbole. Auf der Front ist ein kleines Display mit einer numerischen Anzeige zu sehen. Der Hintergrund ist vollständig weiß, wodurch Text und Illustrationen klar hervortreten. Insgesamt vermittelt das Bild visuell die Idee, dass durch das Kombinieren von Schutzmaßnahmen – konkret Maske und Luftreiniger – eine Lösung im Umgang mit luftübertragenen Krankheiten dargestellt wird.

A #respiratorMask and #AirPurifier helps prevent all of these👇
