August Abolins | Sean Dennis | The 6-foot rule dates back to the late 1800s |

Hello Sean! ** On Sunday 08.01.23 - 17:49, Sean Dennis wrote to Gamgee: SD> [1] https://tinyurl.com/23jedw2n Interesting article.. I never heard about: "The 6-foot rule dates back to the late 1800s, when a German scientist found that pathogens were present in large droplets expelled from the nose and mouth." "However, wind and weather can affect how droplets travel. If the humidity is low, bigger droplets can shrink and stay in the air longer. " This was amusing.. "This whole idea that there's this 6-foot perimeter, and if you're one inch beyond it then you're safe, really doesn't make much sense," said Capecelatro." I had people think exactly that if they were just 6ft + inch then they were good to go. WRT to poor ventalation.. "If you're in a room and someone coughs, sneezes, or speaks, the droplets they expel can hang around for a long time," said Capecelatro. "It doesn't matter where you are in the room. You are going to be breathing in some of those droplets, especially if there's poor ventilation." Never thought that clustering would be an issue wrt to turbulent... "Airflow patterns matter and sometimes can make things worse." ... "What the airflow can do, especially if it's turbulent, is cause these [virus] particles to cluster, and that will increase the number of particles that you could breathe in," said Capecelatro. But out of common sense, in my shop I have a ceiling fan that I engage + I make sure the furnace intake is on most of the time. -- ../|ug --- OpenXP 5.0.57 * Origin: The LOOK of MicroNET https://kolico.ca/ftn/micronet (618:250/1.9) |
