RE:”
At 6 feet the virus knows to stop and if closer it will only be allowed to be inhaled and not end up on your exposed skin or in your eyes or on your clothes.
It is a smart virus.......” Here's livescience explanation for the 6 feet:
Six feet is the average distance that respiratory droplets from a sneeze or cough travel before they settle and are no longer likely to be inhaled by other people. I have seen estimates for social distancing of up to 10 feet if someone sneezes quite hard, [or] does not cover their sneeze [or] cough,” she said. “This allows those particles a little more distance to settle so that you are not breathing them in. As long as someone’s not outwardly ill, though, you should be safe maintaining a 6-foot distance.”
Other opinions at the article say 6 feet isn't enough
Is 6 feet enough space for social distancing? (By Rafi Letzter - Staff Writer March 31, 2020 livescience) Not everyone thinks that's enough distance.
