If the reality of airborne transmission had been validated earlier, businesses and governments would have had to "do something" about workplaces' generally poor ventilation.

And schools. Could be some very costly rehab. If they tested the air for other unwholesome attributes, who knows what else might be found- so thorough recap may be $ well spent. And this probably won’t be our last contagious disease

I went to my former gym to ask what steps they were taking to address aerosol spread - turned off fans. No air exchanger, HEPA filters, C02 monitor, etc. Require masks except during exercise. Still my former gym. I try spreading the word to my church without success.
