I'm moving out soon and I'm thinking of moving into this beautiful pre-war building. I'm worried though about covid spreading and I'm wondering what precautions people living in apartments currently are taking.
Thing is I can find an apartment with a private entrance and in-unit wash/dryer, which would probably be better for covid, but this building is just nicer - better location, maintained better, it seems like the landlord is more present and responsive. Idk it's a better deal, I'm just worried about covid.
"COVID is spread via water droplets and touch... and additional measures are pretty worthless" and COVID "don't waft around on it's own" is factually wrong and and mildly dangerous if left unchallenged. I don't want to be a dick, but I have a responsibility to comrades here trying to keep themselves safe.
Literally any mod or admin can reverse my decision. But honestly I'd just move on, it's not something worth getting upset over.
I'm upset that you're ignoring the science, even the science you provided. The comments are whatever, which is why I suggested reconsidering the definitions of the terms for future actions instead of reinstating the comments.
Water droplets, or, if you prefer, respiratory droplets, or even aerosols, is how COVID travels through the air and settles on objects. That's what the link you gave me explicitly says, and it is what I said. It does not waft around without that medium, to suggest it does is factually incorrect and not backed by any science.
Guy, you stated that we don't need to have ventilators in closed rooms because COVID is a spread through droplet form, not "wafting" around like an aerosol. I'm being really nice, but this is started to get to debate bro behaviour. I'm middle aged, and I have better things to do than listen to you pretend that you didn't say something that's factually incorrect.
Not cool, please don't.
When you're alone, in your own apartment, with a closed door, yeah. That's why lockdowns were effective at preventing transmission. I also said ventilation was necessary when in rooms with other people, especially when you can't distance.
I corrected myself to be more specific when I realised I hadn't been clear enough, and I backed up the specifics with science. I'm sorry that you feel that isn't sufficient. Feel free to do the things, I'm out.
Disengage.
