COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Pandemic

[RandomMe]

I for one would just compare demographics of countries instead. That and dimensions.

The USA, Brazil and Russia are obviously big, India is far too densely populated. However the infection rate in India is a little lower than both the USA and Brazil, at between 20 to 25000 new cases a day.

I’m confused as to how airconditioning attracts coronavirus?

 

[Low Spark of Lyman]

Yeah, I'd like to know myself.

 

[wonderfly]

It's referring to air conditioning in public enclosed places (like restaurants, or maybe in offices, etc), not the air conditioning in your own home.

Can Air Conditioning Spread COVID-19? Here's How Risky It Can Be

Can air conditioning spread the coronavirus? Find out what experts say about the air conditioning in your home, office, or a public place like a restaurant and if it can transmit COVID-19.

www.health.com

Air conditioning circulates air. If droplets (coughing or sneezing residue from an infected individual standing near air conditioning vents or fan) are sucked into the air current, there is the possibility of it spreading beyond the normal "6 foot" radius that everyone's trying to heed to, but that danger may be limited.

The possibility is there, but....it's probably not a "super conductive" way to spread the virus. Standing right next to an infected person without proper safety masks is still the more likely scenario for catching the virus.

You’re right. And man, I’m so gulliable.

I went to the mall today and I think everyone (excluding very young children) had a mask on. That’s good news.

And also, Bloomberg thought this 4th of July was the end of America as we know it.

Articles like this just love to tell lies during the pandemic.

Yep, masks are now required in my city, along with most nearby cities, Toronto included. This coming as daily increases in cases have been in single digits for a while.

 

[AdrenalineRush1996]

Oh, no. That's not good.
