I checked and mine filters people by symptoms at the door and has symptomatic people wait in their cars. But then, something crazy like 70% are asymptomatic, right?
- tomohawk 6y agoI saw a recent study of an Italian town where they exhaustively tested everyone. It was something like 40% got it but had no symptoms. The main means of transmission appears to be when people are talking, coughing, sneezing. If someone is talking without a mask on, they are spraying droplets everywhere. If they have a mask on, then the risk is much lower. If you have a mask on, too, then it is even lower. In Singapore, medical personnel had excellent success by wearing surgical masks at all times, and wearing N95 masks only when performing procedures where lots of droplets were expected, such as extubating a patient.
