That too.

2020-11-09 20:27:03 UTC  

the singapore study didnt look for operational virii, but RNA fragments.

2020-11-09 20:28:11 UTC  

Water also furthers the expected lifespan of the virus itself.

2020-11-09 20:28:18 UTC  

To potentially weeks.

2020-11-09 20:28:29 UTC  

Its worth reading the cruice ship swab studies too. They found the highest probability on bathroom floors, and the second on pillows.

2020-11-09 20:28:47 UTC  

40 something and 30 something.

2020-11-09 20:29:52 UTC  

I saw one interesting case here, where an entire nursing home got infected, yet the staff had observed all rules and regulations.

2020-11-09 20:29:54 UTC  

why would you put your mask back on before washing your hands

2020-11-09 20:30:02 UTC  

They had been sharing bathrooms, however.

2020-11-09 20:30:11 UTC  

Because your mask is contaminated.

2020-11-09 20:30:37 UTC  

Ideally you wouldn't take it off, ever.

2020-11-09 20:30:39 UTC  

@realz the mask you wear into a public restroom is now full of aerosols with virii, if the person before you is sick.

2020-11-09 20:30:54 UTC  

next to your eyes, mouth and nose.

2020-11-09 20:31:06 UTC  

got it

2020-11-09 20:31:13 UTC  

but how is that worse than no mask

2020-11-09 20:31:18 UTC  

it isnt.

2020-11-09 20:31:24 UTC  

OK

2020-11-09 20:31:44 UTC  

its just hanging around in the air in the public rest rooms then

2020-11-09 20:31:46 UTC  

its just that a mask does not protect

2020-11-09 20:31:59 UTC  

yes, once you flush, it gets airborne.

2020-11-09 20:32:06 UTC  

like enterovirii

2020-11-09 20:32:09 UTC  

mmk

2020-11-09 20:32:17 UTC  

It hangs in the air. Anything you smell can be a particle that contains a viral load.

2020-11-09 20:32:24 UTC  

It eventually settles on surfaces.

2020-11-09 20:32:27 UTC  

mhm

2020-11-09 20:33:10 UTC  

so pubs, clubs, hotels and cruice ships become superspreaders.

2020-11-09 20:33:17 UTC  

not subways.

2020-11-09 20:33:27 UTC  

and that is exactly the spread pattern you see.

2020-11-09 20:33:36 UTC  

Portapotties sound like they would be the worst.

2020-11-09 20:33:56 UTC  

irradiate the bathrooms

2020-11-09 20:33:56 UTC  

😛

2020-11-09 20:34:57 UTC  

@realz not a bad suggestion. In infection wards, the air is constantly sucked into UVC-irradiation devices.

2020-11-09 20:35:29 UTC  

I was thinking more like direct lighting but that could work

2020-11-09 20:35:43 UTC  

UV light is surprisingly effective at sterilizing things.

2020-11-09 20:35:47 UTC  

direct UVC is somewhat unpleasant.

2020-11-09 20:36:13 UTC  

It's concentrated unlike sunlight.

2020-11-09 20:36:28 UTC  

but it would make more sense to bathe everything in UVC and make sunglasses mandatory.

2020-11-09 20:36:41 UTC  

haha

2020-11-09 20:36:57 UTC  

I'm sure it's also terrible for your skin.

2020-11-09 20:37:01 UTC  

I was thinking more like when people leave the room

2020-11-09 20:37:16 UTC  

how long does UVC take to work
