That article is about as good as popular journalism can get. It explains things, it discusses sources, it does not scandalize, it only vaguely recommends. Yes, it is not critical against mainstream advice, but that is not wrong per se.

There is no solid research that demonstrates that 6ft are sufficient. That advice comes from very old flu research. This article gives a normative recommendation in a situation of uncertainty. Meanwhile, social distancing has not gotten R0<1 in California.

Cargo Cult Science: “Just as cargo cultists create mock airports that fail to produce airplanes, cargo cult scientists conduct flawed research that superficially resembles the scientific method, but which fails to produce scientifically useful results.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_cult_science …pic.twitter.com/DYi1kJWXUi

i'm unaware of any research regarding the minimum infectious dose of this virus, but in some cases (eg hiv) it's one virion!!pic.twitter.com/HjfaOsHM86

How wan it be better than one virion? So the virus infects, the body detects and at some point builds antibodies. Are antibodies so mobile they might win the body-wide arms race early on if they start building early enough? (so with multiple virus seeds production can't keep up)
