[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You aren’t going to catch coronavirus in the fraction of a second the runner is near you. [/quote]

Why not?[/quote]

Because if you were likely to, EVERYONE would have it at this point.  It's not measles.[/quote]

I think someone panting and sweating is way more likely to hit me with their droplets than someone just walking calmly by.[/quote]

Look, I know you need fodder to keep your anxiety wheels running, but you clearly don't understand how minuscule this is. About as minuscule as catching COVID from staying locked in your home, but opening a window.

I had the flu 6 years ago, and it had no effect on my lugs like COVID 19 does. It started like this:

- sunday runday, let's go!
- (7 minutes in) omg what's wrong with me I feel like I've been hit by a big truck
- regular flu symptoms come on rapidly, aches, chills, fever, etc.

This coronavirus situation is clearly a lungs/breathing thing. I know you're not a runner nor have ever been one, but I cannot imagine running 1 minute with it, if my body reacted so quickly to having the flu (w/ zero respiratory effect)

Stop clinging to your anxiety like it's a warm comfort blanket. Or just stay home (where you can't eliminate all risk to 100.00000000%). Or just admit what you really dislike is cooties. [/quote]

Runner who just posted. PP above, you are wrong -- one can be asymptotic and still carry/transmiit corona. Please read up. [/quote]
