SHUT THE FUCK UP

yo.. dolby an son... innit


AND WEAR A MASK

There’s mounting evidence that airborne transmission indoors is a key
— perhaps the main —
pathway to SARS-COV-2 transmission.


..by reducing superspreader events in enclosed spaces like churches
(airborne transmission via singing),

restaurants (loud talking, especially if room is noisy), bars (ditto),
 
nursing homes (shouting[1]), gyms (grunting),

meat-packing plants (shouting),
 
call centers (talking),
 
offices generally (air conditioning),
 
and other hot spots,


A crowded indoor place, then, with poor ventilation..
 
filled with people talking, shouting, or singing..
 
for hours on end will be the riskiest scenario.

 
A sparsely populated indoor space with open windows is less risky
(but not completely safe).
 
Running quickly past another jogger outside
is on the other end of the spectrum;
minimal risk.


It sounds too good to be true.
But a compelling new study and computer model
provide fresh evidence for a simple solution to help us
emerge from this nightmarish lock down.

The formula?
Always social distance in public and, most importantly,
wear a mask.


AN ILL WIND
