Loud speech can leave coronavirus in air for up to fourteen minutes - study

As Israelis are notoriously loud, it is perhaps in their own interest to continue wearing masks to stop the spread of the virus and "lower the curve."

Tiny particles escaping from a person's mouth when they speak loudly – which may contain the coronavirus – can stay in the air from eight up to as much as 14 minutes, a study has found.

The study was published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America.

Italians are also loud LOL but I don’t buy this. Another excuse to make us with face coverings.

Face covering is for Muslim women and criminals.

I am none of the above.

Ok let me get this straight: in order to avoid the ‘rona we should be a blind deaf mute. Tommy is not just a pinball wizard, he’s evidently going to be the lone survivor of ‘rona.

Loud Howard from Dilbert will be forever banished and erased from comic history.

He might inspire someone.

Wally is my inspiration. I don’t live up to his ideals though.

Have no fear. Loud Howard will always exist. I happen to work with him!

"How did it spread in Italy, Italians talk with their hands?"

Easy. The Lombardy hot-spot in northern Italy has thousands of Chinese in their factories to produce Italian clothing, shoes, purses, and other goods. This was reported weeks ago. Italy didn't stop the Chinese workers from flying back and forth to China until after Trump did such. It was also reported that many of those came from the Wuhan province.

Big wonder how and where COVID spread throughout Europe. /s

Because of that, Gov. Cuomo is now saying his New York COVID comes from Europe. That may or may not be true, but it doesn't negate the fact that the virus has unquestionably originated in China.

I would love to see some researcher smarter than me pull together a list of all US politicians who have ties to the Chi-Coms. I would bet they are the regular suspects we've all heard of.

They told us that singing hymns in church is dangerous, too. They’re pathetic and desperate to try to make something stick.

Just great.

Wear a mask so people that rely on reading lips can’t understand what the wearer is saying.

Don’t wear a mask and speak loudly so someone can read lips and hear the speaker, and the virus spreads.

Being hesring-disabled sucks.

My wife and just about her whole choir crowd believe it.

I guess persons will have to carry around signal flags and flashlights or apps that will flash messages.

No verbal communication.

How did it spread in Italy?

Granted, last time I was hugged by an Asian woman that attractive, it cost me $250 (cash) but they PCd themselves into three months of lockdown IMO.

Are you kidding me? Should I get a hanky out for that obvious propaganda video for that one Chinese lady? Read my post #28. It is proven fact. Do some research on the Lombardy area of Italy. I don’t blame Italy’s companies since every company wants cheaper labor, but that was the original hot spot in Europe. Sheesh.
