NY Times reporting that airborne virus plays a significant role in transmission. Live virus has been identified in aerosols collected at a distance of 7 - 16 feet from Covid patients... further than the recommended social distancing. They are saying that social distancing doesn’t work indoors because an aerosol can fill a room in five minutes. Bad news for pubs, restaurants and schools.
