MASKS ? WHAT ABOUT THESE ?
What did cowboys wear to keep the dust from chocking them when it was kicked up in cattle drives? Bandanas. Seems to me They would do

Hmmm. Pretty much that's true, BUT, the size of the virus may be smaller than the cowboys' dust particles.

Hell, I don't know.

I don't think anyone knows how coronavirus travels OR infects except the folks WHO CREATED IT.

Here's hoping the actual guilty people go to hell sooner than later. Maybe China then could "enjoy" a different and less ancient, evil leader.

Since you asked...

A dust particle is 40,000 times larger than a single virus partical.

So dust on a scarf is not likely to get inhaled through the scarf as you breath. And even if it does, it is not goingt to kill you. You wouldn't even notice breathing trace amounts of dust throug a scarf.

You get Caronavirus on your scarf, and as you breath in and out it will moisten with your breath. Every time you inhale, the virus is going to work its way through the water in your scarf until you begin to breath it in.

Then their is the fact that a scarf can't possibly be tight fitting. It is always going to be open to the bottom where it just hangs in front of your chin. Every time the wind blows, you are going to get a little dust in your mouth. With a virus, that is all she wrote -- you are infected..
