Indeed. Gravity is the same indoors and outdoors, the difference can be this big if floating particles rather than ballistic ones are driving transmission. Sunlight can matter, but as Jose says, basic science of it says it can't be that big. I repeat: open to a theory that fits.

A correct understanding of the transmission mechanism would empower people, direct investment to correct mitigations, assuage fears, encourage outdoors (instead of stupid beach shaming) and help with other respiratory diseases. We aren't into Twitter battles for the fun of it.

There were elderly people in there with me, and I was the only one wearing an N95, amidst the Omicron wave in NYC and when we know elderly will have especially difficult time fending off antibody evading variants. Nobody has been explaining this to people. TWO YEARS IN.

I'm good, thanks. Similarly, MDs on WHO committees *yelled* at the aerosol scientists on this thread, but time has spoken there as well. Not everyone with degrees can do good science.
