This is why weather is the only reliable predictor for SarsCov2 case surges:

It's aerosolized, not droplets.

On the video call, tensions rose. At one point, Lidia Morawska, a revered atmospheric physicist who had arranged the meeting, tried to explain how far infectious particles of different sizes could potentially travel. One of the WHO experts abruptly cut her off, telling her she was wrong, Marr recalls. His rudeness shocked her. "You just don't argue with Lidia about physics," she says.

Morawska had spent more than two decades advising a different branch. of the WHO on the impacts of air pollution. When it came to flecks of soot and ash belched out by smokestacks and tailpipes, the organization readily accepted the physics she was describing-that particles of many sizes can hang aloft, travel far, and be inhaled. Now, though, the WHO's advisers seemed to be saying those same laws didn't apply to virus-laced respiratory particles. To them, the word airborne only applied to particles smaller than 5 microns. Trapped in their group specific jargon, the two camps on Zoom literally couldn't understand one another.

Which is why it does not spread by contact.

Which is why standing a meter away (or six feet for Americans who don't know a meter is 39 inches) makes no difference.

It's why billions in plexiglas made no difference.

It's why hand washing, sanitizer and wipes made no difference.

The only thing missing from the article was the last piece of why there is nothing that can be done about and endemic respiratory virus that is aerosolized.

We have to breathe, and the air we breathe contains the infectious agent.

They do not use hospital grade HEPA filtration systems or N-95 magical masks at the Wuhan Lab to avoid becoming infected with airborne, aerosolized, respiratory viruses. They use the only thing that works, closed loop respiration delivery systems.

They for damned sure don't use disposable masks that look like what actors that play doctors on TV wear.

The actual scientists interviewed for the article are experts on how aerosolized particles travel, not on how you stop them.

No industrial hygienist would recommend even an N95 mask for either control or PPE against and aerosol.

Because math.
 
What an unusual fetish 😏

Ha.

Indeed.

Wrong forum. On the other hand with the amount of fear porn involving this particular virus, there are clearly some people who have fetishized some aspect of it!

Good catch.
 
So to sum up: it's air exchange that matters. More air means less virus copies per inhalation. When people are spending more time outdoors and with the windows open, less cases. When people are spending most of their time indoors, reliant on HVAC, more caees.

Other than outdoors, bars and restaurants were always one of the safest places, relatively speaking. Exhaust fans.
 
At some point in the future, you'll pop into the convenience store for an aluminum cylinder full of fresh air to plug into your car's fresh air port the way we buy bottled water now.

great even literotica fetish and sexuality central has been

infiltrated by those homegrown pretend scientists who seem to believe they know more than all the actual experts.

I guess it's their little fantasy and we should let them have it.
 
Yeah this is a pretty weird topic for a fetish board. But n95 masks and HEPA air cleaners really do filter out a lot of the virus. It is similar to how they filter small smoke particles, which are of similar size to virus particles, around 0.1 micron.
 
Order of magnitude difference between HEPA (which even the pro-mask "scientists" acknowledge cannot make an indoor space "safe" and N95. N95 properly worn on a beardless individual only gets 95% of -dust-.
