Another reason why everyone should wear a mask today

An aerosol cloud of virus in a store:

1. Cough into the inside of your elbow, ya fucking sim slob

Mythbusters did that test enough years ago that it should be universal among adults and nearly so among school age kids. Infant, toddlers and preschool kids need to stay home if they're sick enough to cough or sneeze.

2. Really?

And the 5G towers are also spreading this, right?

3. Gawd. That.

Just a whole lot of stupid with those people.

4. Wow. That was scary. I assumed the travel distance for a cough was much smaller.

5. that's why i run around a couple of chairs on the patio instead of doing long walks

last time i took a long walk some twit on a bicycle passed too close, huffing and puffing with a big dumb grin on her face with the whole road available to her

btw if you do a 10ft diameter circle in 4 secs you can do 1.8 miles in 20 mins. change direction every 5 mins to balance. faster tighter circles is more like skating - and a lot less pounding than regular jogging, running

2 chairs etc makes a figure 8 and a fair bit more work.

6. Now imagine that in a crowded movie theater...

...I have always been creeped-out when someone in the theater - especially behind me - started coughing.

I may never go back to a theater again after this.
