The article people teetering on the brink of insanity did not need. My god.


Kinda true though. And I’m trying to nail down exactly how airborne this is? Can it linger in air for hours? If you walk behind someone on a windy day, will you inhale it even 6 ft away??


There is commentary on specific recent studies about this, just published via New England Journal of Medicine.

If it’s stable for hours, simply entering a store is almost guaranteed to lead to infection.

Scary but not at all unrealistic. Stay at home people.



It's scary because it's poorly written panic porn.


Love this analogy.


Agreed. What a piece of garbage that was.


I like how he said “for most people, the story will stop here” and then spends six paragraphs waxing about death.


Well is that where he should he have ended an article about what coronavirus does to your body?

This is why I wish everyone, symptomatic or not, would wear masks. It would help contain small and large “droplets.” Putting droplets in quotes because CDC continues to insist that transmission is primarily through droplets and downplay the possibility of aerosol (basically small droplets lol).
