- giggles_giggles 7y agoAre you a doctor? Can you explain why a study about influenza would apply to SARS-CoV-2? Or is your doubt baseless speculation?
- tzs 7y agoSARS-CoV-2 is a spheroid with a diameter of about 120 nm. There's a lot of variation in influenza viruses, but most are spheroids or ellipsoids with a diameter from 80-120 mm. For simple mechanical filtering, such as with a mask, they are going to behave pretty similar.
