If you read the academic research that the CDC has cited in defense of the 10% benchmark, you will notice something strange. A very large share of supposed cases of outdoor transmission have occurred in a single setting: construction sites in Singapore. How could that be?

But also that agree with Muge Cevik that the Singapore sites also had shared dormitories (which is what my own chasing down of that number revealed) so that was likely indoors/outdoors in many cases. Thanks for getting the more correct number out.

And the most part of the construction workers aren't usually in outdoors enviroments. They work usually in partially closed space with still to be launched and unfunctioning ventilation system

Hi Zeynep. Does this mean a packed sports event — with supporters chanting/singing loudly for prolonged periods of time — would possibly see outdoors transmission?
