"the likelihood of being infected by droplet-borne virus vs. aerosol-borne virus"


Please inform me of the latest propaganda info you have been provided with to disperse to the general public.

As said, I am all ears.

droplet-borne virus vs. aerosol-borne virus,


Is surface tension going to come into the discussion? That is one of my favs.

How big is a "droplet" for example. ?

How long is a piece of string.?

I presume when we are talking about "droplets" we are talking about something bigger then a virus. Although some animals grow a new head, or a new butthole (depending which half), if you chop them in two, but I am not jumping to any conclusions here. I am assuming any "droplet" must contain an integer, or whole number of viruses.

No portion of a virus is allowed into my calculations. ... so any "droplet" has to be bigger than a SARS2 Covid virus yes?

What about the size of an influenza virus.... is that much smaller?

Looks as if you have "caught me out", I bow to your superior knowledge on the subject.

I do wonder why the Chinese have started to check peoples buttholes for viruses. Are the droplets of a more consistent size there?

Let us humble average citizens know the score.
