Assumptions about the spread have been wrong.

There is no way society can protect itself from this virus or probably any other.

The answer is we have to lock up the healthy people and release the prisoners including killers like the Green River Killer (who ALMOST got out of life imprisonment) because of “Covid”.

That’s what immune systems are for. You get small doses of a germ. The body develops a defense. Sometimes the germs overpower the immune system but that is also nature. What we are doing now is destroying the body’s ability to fight off infections. This is not good for our future.

Better take up all the “x” marks on the floor in the check out lane and move them 20 feet apart now

BS. Hospitals ran out of PPE when this all kicked off and hardly any of the workers got the Chicom flu. It’s difficult to catch this bug unless you are very old, very unhealthy or very unlucky.

Now.... try this again with masks that have been worn all day. See if there’s any difference.

Masks prevent you from spraying droplets. But guess what? Either you’re going to end up breathing through the sides of the mask, or you’re going to have a soppy, wet mask within minutes.

The CoVId-19 viron is so small it almost defies gravity. Comparing a mosquito to the virus, a mask is a chain link fence.

That’s why virologists wear pressurized suits when working with it.

Article says, “We concluded this was a droplet transmission, and beyond two meters.”
* * * * * * * * *
So I am a bit skeptical about their conclusion. They have all this “perfect storm” stuff worked into it. I mean, they figured out the exact MINUTE that this person was infected?
As joe biden would say, “C’mon man!”
Regardless, the odds of this happening are still possible. What is impossible is that Joe Biden won the 2020 election.

There is no way society can protect itself from this virus or probably any other.

As it pertains to airborne viruses, the amount of "protection" is questionable. Outdoor transmission of the virus doesn't seem to be a big issue. Indoor transmission appears to be due to the recirculation of indoor air and the inability to kill the virus in recirculated air.

Yes, there are some methods such as UV Light installed in furnaces' and other filtration methods that can help minimize it, but eliminate the potential of spread?

That's what immune systems are for.

Well, that does it.

We can’t go outside or we’ll die.

we can’t stay inside or we’ll die.

We’re all gonna die.

Do you know what we need? We need the DS to chum up more outrageously inflated and outright bogus “death” counts so that the truly stupid cattle among us can just go ahead and die of fright.

Then we can hang the liars and get back to doing that living life thing.

Just riot and loot. You’re protected against the virus.

Every student at Virginia Tech wore a mask around campus but not when partying in bars and houses.

And even the conclusions so far drawn from this story are missing a very serious point.

SINCE South Korea requires everyone to wear a mask and since the requirement is enforced, it must be a fact that everyone was wearing a mask at the time of the infection.

If masks are not effective when the wearers are 20 ft. apart, they are truly worthless.

So this test effectively demonstrates that every thing we have been doing to stop the spread of wu-flu has been worthless, other than perhaps the total isolation of everyone, both those infected with it and those who do not have it.

Just tie a hankie across your face. Because “masks work”, all the Smart People say so because science.

Don’t try to distract people with fancy words like viral load, just wear the damn mask! Else we’re telling!

I am 73 and have asthma. The CDC guidelines include a recommendation that people with respiratory issues should NOT wear a mask. Yet everywhere I go, including doctors offices will not honor this exemption. My own asthma doc refuses to write a letter for me confirming I have asthma and should not wear a mask. So, I have to delay knee surgeries and other procedures until this is over.

If you are in a building with central air conditioning and heating, it doesn’t matter how far away you are, it is in that system and spreading all across the building.

Why haven’t all the news readers dropped dead then if this was a real pandemic? They sit near each other with air circulating.

“There’s a real misconception about this in the public.” said Seung, who was not involved in the South Korea study. “They’re thinking, if I’m not a close contact, I will magically be protected.”

Well Gee, I wonder where the public got that misconception? Could it be that the Government and the Media demanding masks & distancing as the only way to "stop the spread" for the last 10 months just might play a small role?
