Pic Of The Moment: Let This Sink In

[Larissa]

17. It's going to get worse

Winter is coming. As usual wash hands, wear your mask. But, above all, stay away from people indoors: restaurants, bars, parties. Yes, it is schizophrenic that across America bars, restaurants and parties continue. Just don't! People tend not to wear masks at these venues, where they congregate for hours. When people get lubricated by booze, the spittle flies like confetti. Even during sober conversations, the droplets still magic carpet ride in the air. Consequently, they remain the most dangerous places you can be when it comes to contracting the novel coronavirus. The breeze from the air conditioners (spit launchers) recirculate and SARS-CoV-2 surfs right into the nostrils, its preferred landing strip. How do I know this? Science, baby!*
