- JoeAltmaier 7y agoCarried in a sneeze or cough? What do we call it then?
- 0xffff2 7y agoAerosolized. The difference is important because the aerosolized virus only survives in the bodily fluids expelled by the sneeze/cough, which gives it a much, much shorter range than if it was actually airborne, which would imply that the virus could survive long enough to spread without the need for a bodily fluid to host it.
