Agreed. The other factors though for the public is most people have no idea how to properly fit a n-95, how hard they are actually breathing in said mask, or how long that mask is actually good for.
The numbers came from one of the studies I looked at a few days ago their results were for a 15 minute exposure. And yes, a lot depends on the environment you are in. A closed in taxi with an ill person isn’t somewhere in an outbreak you want to be...even with a n-95 mask.

For sure! And that tosses us back 50 years, where ‘travel’ was going to a place within a day’s drive with the families station wagon (when flying/cruising was simply out of reach for all but the upper class). Otherwise, it’s literally impossible to avoid crowds (other than when everyone else is afraid to go out).
Funny how life can go full circle.
