Replying to @kdrum
Not only is this account embarrassingly wrong, I'll just say this part: most viruses are ABSOLUTELY not larger than 5 microns—you are way off. (Besides that particular cut-off error, while interesting and telling, did not play a major role in the history of this.)pic.twitter.com/MIS0EtrfSR

Could he have meant droplets?

Would still be incoherent beyond fixable.

Sorry about the unit mistake. It's fixed now. And I'm sure the rest of the post is coherent enough to criticize. If you have any specific criticisms, please let me know. It doesn't seem like my summary is all that different from one of yours that I've read.

Your corrected sentence is wrong, too (though the unit is correct, facts aren't). Also the rest of the history is wrong. And many factual errors. Chinese hospitals immediately used airborne precautions, and their very first Nature paper on the virus said it was likely airborne.

Many scientists had extensive work on this from before. And while the five micron article is excellent, and the topic is interesting that cut-off (and the error associated with it) plays almost no role in the arguments/history. (ID doctors don't know the cut-off, nor care).

And again, your explanation of the argument / disagreement itself is still incorrect. And the history you present isn't factual either.

If it is of any help, here are three articles of the many articles on this topic I worked on. It really, really, really isn't one study was misunderstood and then corrected. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/07/opinion/coronavirus-airborne-transmission.html … and https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(21)00869-2/fulltext … andhttps://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abd9149 …
