Ria I read that Article and I took a completely different message from it. One that is never pushed enough.

1. You are not safe with a mask. If you want to be safe, where there are people with the virus, you need mask, googles, and you need procedures.
2. If you are in the presence of the virus, just washing your hands is not good enough. You need to wash your hands, then the taps and anything else you are going to touch. Before touching your face you need to wash your hands and you also need to then wash your face as your face may have droplets on it.
3. If you want to be safe and someone sneezes, you need to leave the room, immediately wash your hands and face, then don't go back for at least half an hour.

Finally. If you want to be safe you must protect yourself from people breathing on you, sneezing or coughing in a room and touching anything that anyone else has touched unless you immediately wash your hands.

All sounds pretty impossible.

Go back and look at the articles bout Chinese doctors and Chines with masks. Then look again in march. Masks, gloves, and surgical capes in Jan. Suits, hepa breathing masks with flitters, googles with full coverage and gloves taped to the suit in March. People on the street, similar protection differences.

The only thing this article proves is what I have been saying for months now. If you move, travel, work or shop outside of the home you run a level of risk. If you want to remove that risk entirely, you need to take bio warfare levels of protection. If you don't you run an increased risk.

Nice to see it all in one place. Pity the key messages were missed. The virus is pneumonic in droplets, your eyes are porous, your hands are the most likely thing to transmit the virus unless you are in direct contact with droplets without a mask and goggles and, critically, take a level of care in everything you touch.

Those who understand Binary and those who do not.
