| If both were in KN95s and in the same room for 1.5-2 hours, although more than 6 ft apart, what’s the likelihood of one contracting COVID if the other just tested positive? |

I think it is extremely unlikely. I've seen write ups about a positive case in a salon, but none of the masked hairdressers tested positive. Obviously, they're way closer than 6 feet.
That said, my husband wears a KN95 absolutely everywhere without fail and got covid. So, no guarantees. |

There's no specific number. So many other factors. Ventilation, size of the room.
But I am in a room with my students for hours. Some of them are masked and some aren't. I'm masked and spend plenty of time closer than 6 feet. I haven't gotten it (yet). I test weekly since I'm often exposed and don't always know when. Think about medical staff who is well masked and surrounded by confirmed positive cases, and don't get it. |

| Amati zero if you were both wearing 95s correctly the whole time. |

| I think the positive rate for living in the same house (obviously unmasked) is only 40% or so. |

You take a covid test every week...just...because? |

| It is possible but by no means a certainty. Good luck. |

| Covid positive was KN95 masked 100%? Chances are close to 95%. |

Yes masked the whole time. 95% chance of contracting it? |

Intelligent adults care. We know. That’s not you. |

| The 6 ft thing is totally meaningless. |

| Jen Psaki was unconcerned that Nancy Pelosi (unmasked, but tested positive) hugged Joe Biden (unmasked) a few days ago. So….you should be fine. |
