This risk is highest in crowded indoor spaces with poor ventilation. What does this mean?https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🧵" title="Thread" aria-label="Emoji: Thread"> https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/06/health/coronavirus-airborne-aerosols.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/0...
2) ā€œIt’s unclear how often the virus is spread via these tiny droplets, or aerosols, compared with larger droplets that are expelled when sick person coughs or sneezes, or transmitted through contact with contaminated surfaces, said @linseymarr, aerosol expert at Virginia Tech.ā€
3) ā€œAerosols are released even when a person without symptoms exhales, talks or sings, according to Dr. Marr and more than 200 other experts, who have outlined the evidence in an open letter to the World Health Organizationā€

5) What is airborne? ā€œFor the coronavirus, complicated. Experts agree that virus does not travel long distances or remain viable outdoors. But evidence suggests it can traverse the length of a room and, in one set of experimental conditions, remain viable for perhaps https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="šŸ“" title="Runde Reißzwecke" aria-label="Emoji: Runde Reißzwecke">3 hourshttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="šŸ“" title="Runde Reißzwecke" aria-label="Emoji: Runde Reißzwecke">ā€
