or better yet don't use public transportation
many people need to use it but if one passenger is sick then you're probably fucked.
You're assuming everyone has that option
Or if you do need to use public transport
No I'm well aware that many people rely on it, as i just said
Maybe try and catch an earlier bus or train
If that means there will be less passengers.
What I hate is seeing people eating food on the bus
Why not just eat straight off the toilet seat
If you're in an affected area you're probably going to get sick from using any sort of public transport at anytime. Even if there's no infected passengers, if one was on the bus beforehand then that person likely left viral particles on surfaces within it, and the virus can live outside the body of up to 9 days so far. It's stupidly durable.
Eating food on a bus is gross, agreed.
Ok @Cobra Commander I want to be super clear here- because it’s not really cool to spread disinformation to win an argument
Generally, though, transmission of the new coronavirus comes with so many unknowns that it’s “plausible but unlikely” that it would spread through hand-to-eye contact, says Dr. Stephen Thomas , chief of infectious diseases at SUNY Upstate Medical University in Syracuse, New York.
Hi
It is not likely to be transmitted via the eye
👍
So yes, you’re right, it’s technically possible
I never said it was likely, I said it was *possible* and *can* obviously occur given what information we already have on how it spreads
But it’s not part of CDC or WHO guidance that we need to worry about spread via eyes
So please, if you want to be right yes you’re right you win
Try to avoid touching your face
Bryh
I just touched my face
Don’t worry about protective eyewear
I’m only going out in a hazmat suit from now on
LOL
Frfr
Why would you *not* want to inform people of the possibility of transmissions through other means? That can literally only help people take precautions.
LOL
