Perhaps its more to do with dust particles than just breathing – https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-17888-w
“…we conclude that airborne particulate matter from a non-respiratory source is able to transmit influenza virus through the air to a susceptible host.”
“These results show that dried influenza virus remains viable in the environment, on materials like paper tissues and on the bodies of living animals, long enough to be aerosolized on non-respiratory dust particles that can transmit infection through the air to new mammalian hosts.”
“Our data suggest that aerosolized fomites may contribute to influenza virus transmission in animal models of human influenza, if not among humans themselves, with important but understudied implications for public health.”
This still supports the idea likely being inside is not a good thing. Also still supports mask wearing and adaption of HVAC. Need to dispose of tissues more carefully. Similar to my thesis – that the virus was coalescing with droplets – it looks like they can very much coalesce with dust particles and eventually if you are in a room with a fan and someone exhaling the virus onto the dust particles eventually it could be inhaled by you and eventually the level reach a level of infection.
On the health front since is the most personal accountability for the prevention and eventual demise of covid – not very popular message I suspect for many – https://www.wsj.com/articles/men-urged-to-limit-alcohol-to-one-drink-a-day-amid-new-concerns-11597688916
“Men should consume no more than one alcoholic drink a day, according to a federal committee’s recommendations for new U.S. dietary guidelines.”
I will agree with this message – https://www.thegrocer.co.uk/health/our-underlying-epidemic-is-chronic-junk-diets-its-time-to-eat-real-food/647463.article
“In a sane, wise world he’d spell that out more graphically with a simple “If you eat junk, you’ll get sick” message. Coronavirus has held our attention, but the underlying epidemic is chronic metabolic ill-health. Time for a new slogan: ’Eat real food. Save lives.’”
Back to the midweek high death report days – US 1324
Deaths seem to be evenly distributed from FL, TX, and CA
LA California leads the county view at 67. TX leading death county Hidalgo – border county – at 44
I put the top 4 county of the current headlines with NY city with the counties to show the stark difference in terms of confirmation and deaths. Confirmations may end up very close due to the elongated confirms – but the deaths are not even close yet.
