Science.
- blacksmith_tb 11y agoI read that as suggesting that the concentration of viruses in the dipping solution was intended to produce a coating comparable to someone who hadn't washed their hands much at all. I wonder how much energy (so to speak) has been put into using a strong vacuum, either by itself or with a blower, to dry hands. Filtering that airflow wouldn't be too difficult, though obviously more expensive.
- geoelectric 11y agoThe degree of dispersion should be the same, though, right? It's just that with a lower starting density you end up with a lower ending density. But the relative performance of the methods would still be valid.
- wodenokoto 11y agoif the starting density is insignificant, then the ending density is insignificant. we expect hands washed in soap to be clean enough to handle food, so they damned well be clean enough to breathe nearby!
- midnitewarrior 11y agoThis is the correct answer. It should be blowing all of the CLEAN that's on your hand all over the room from having just washed your hands.
