[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People we are talking about contagion of Covid19 not some yeast infection.  There are of course billions and billions of germs...what differentiates each is the infectivity and morbidity of each.  Ebola’s mortality rate is high in the 80-90% so many people who contracts it usually die thus the virus dies with them.  On the other hand, influenza virus mortality rate is much lower in the teens so virus can propagate and each year comes back.  Covid19 being a fairly new virus is  both deadly and contagious...the perfect virus for pandemics [/quote]

Except Covid 19 is actually not that contagious, as we have learned. Virtually all the cases are from people in prolonged close contact with a breathing human, in low circulation places. Not from stuff, or not a brief encounter/passing.

“Not that contagious”. Tell that to the 4 million people infected and the close to 300,000 deaths.  Tell that to the International community that now have borders shut down so no travelers allowed in.  Tell that to the business owners who were required to close and are now probably going to be bankrupt.  Tell that to the children Zooming class from home.  I can go on and on.  Oh right, Covid19 is NOT that contagious  [/quote]

Not that contagious from contact transmission which would be the concern in a conversation about scrub wearing outside hospitals.[/quote]
