It is airborne and droplet

I never said a mask wasnt better than no mask, but unless its a respirator its ineffective at filtering the virus

I can assure my mom needed a respirator....

We don't use respirators here on the covid wards and we are fine

If the disease was airborne, a lot more people would be getting it, and social distancing wouldn't work at all

" Airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 can occur during medical procedures that generate aerosols (“aerosol generating procedures”).(12) WHO, together with the scientific community, has been actively discussing and evaluating whether SARS-CoV-2 may also spread through aerosols in the absence of aerosol generating procedures, particularly in indoor settings with poor ventilation."

"Experimental studies have generated aerosols of infectious samples using high-powered jet nebulizers under controlled laboratory conditions. These studies found SARS-CoV-2 virus RNA in air samples within aerosols for up to 3 hours in one study (21) and 16 hours in another, which also found viable replication-competent virus.(22) These findings were from experimentally induced aerosols that do not reflect normal human cough conditions."

A respirator would work in an environment where aerosols occurred, which doesn't typically happen even in normal hospital wards

"TB bacteria are spread through the air from one person to another. The TB bacteria are put into the air when a person with TB disease of the lungs or throat coughs, speaks, or sings. People nearby may breathe in these bacteria and become infected."

TB is spread without introducing aerosols that don't reflect normal human coughing conditions.

That's a true airborne disease

but does any conservative want to discuss fiscal policy

i support free college, federal jobs guarantee, nit, public option healthcare.

Do you support private options for college as well ?

Or only public

I'm from Canada, we have all of those except for free college

Free college only available for natives

Oh and we have universal healthcare

public

im for a public option tbh

m4a not so much, but more so pragmatic reasons/political

So 100% funded by gov't?

public option is similar to like Germany or France, granted in the us it would be somewhat different

its a option

if you want goverment healthcare you get it

I'd want private school to be included as an option

hospitals would still be private

Doesn't mean it will be good but you'll get it
