Scientists are still working to understand the "trillion-dollar question" of how the coronavirus can spread through the air. The role of aerosols — smaller droplets — is crucial. Here's what we know now.https://nyti.ms/2xsproA
This simulation uses research data to show what happens when a person infected with a virus coughs indoors. For a heavy cough, about a quarter-teaspoon of fluid is released, containing respiratory droplets of different sizes. https://nyti.ms/2xj39Wx pic.twitter.com/lzyELEFdWI
The CDC says staying at least 6 feet from others can help avoid coming into contact with the larger droplets and lower the risk of infection. But the droplets can travel farther, the simulation shows — and smaller ones can stay suspended in the air or travel with air currents.pic.twitter.com/bkT8b5WWHu
Researchers at MIT observed particles from a cough traveling as far as 16 feet. Inhaling these particles or touching the surfaces where they land may lead to infection. https://nyti.ms/2xj39Wx pic.twitter.com/lA15XGbijQ
We used augmented reality to show what social distancing guidelines look like in real life: at the grocery store, on a sidewalk, anywhere you might go. Try it yourself, using the AR feature in our iOS app. https://nyti.ms/2xj39Wx pic.twitter.com/rlYAOzOHYH
See the full simulation to show how far respiratory droplets can spread — and how a mask can help. If you haven’t been keeping your distance to fight the coronavirus, it may persuade you.https://nyti.ms/2xj39Wx
This is not true!
Wheres the wind factor???
The air current???
The body moviment and aerodynamics effects??
