How do you infect 600 people during a 2 hr service if it's only transmitted through droplets and prolonged close contact.
- drclau 7y agoTransmission doesn’t occur only via droplets. The virus is supposed to survive for up to 9 days on surfaces/objects in normal conditions, and for up to 28-29 days at low temperatures: “Droplets transmitting coronaviruses only stay suspended in the air for a short time. Details for SARS-CoV-2 are not available as of 26 February 2020, and it is assumed that they are similar to other coronaviruses,[64] which may stay viable and contagious on a metal, glass or plastic surface for up to nine days at room temperature.[65] Disinfection of surfaces is possible with substances such as 62–71% ethanol applied for one minute.[65]“ — source: Wikipedia [0] What sort of rituals do these people follow? Do they have mass? Do they share maybe something like a spoon? Or touch the same objects on entering or leaving the place of prayer?
