In reading through comments and other posts the fact that coronavirus is aerosolized has came up a thousand times(figurative speech). Any way I question I have if it is aerosolized how far in the air can it travel, Can it travel 100 yards, a thousand yards, a mile, what is the common travel for something like this virus.

The distance depends on the velocity of the air.
Bear in mind though that it’s concentration decreases geometrically with distance.

One fact sheet I saw said distance greater than 1 meter, not a lot of help. But, there are reports that people from one apartment have affected those in one above, and that it can travel via hvac systems like is likely happening on the cruise ship, and people in apartments were told to shut off their air systems.
