Just last week a medical scientist was being interviewed about covid19 being airborne.  It is kind of late to emphasize this because about 2nd quarter last year, foreign journals were full of publication about Fluggean theory on covid19 spread.  

We are kind of late in accepting that covid  is airborne.  We are kind of fixated that is like a bacteria which could be stopped by foot bath, by disinfectant, steam  and wiping off fomites.   

We were influenced by the movie Pandemic.  But covid19 is unlike the disease in Pandemic.   

Covid19 is spread by droplet coming from coughing, speaking, singing thus the spread is ripe from

     1.   People close to one another;
     2.  In an enclosed space where ventilation is full
     3.  Where there is enough time for viral loading.

Thus the following events should be banned and avoide.

    1.  Parties
    2.  Drinking sessions
    3.  Sports events
    4.  Direct face to face classes;
    5.  Dining 
    6,  Religious events:   masses, choir singing, funeral

Thus it would seem absurd that various quarters quarrel with politics and religious doctrine when all the public health officials wanted is to stop the spread of the disease

Sometimes our fear and so with our non public health officials order

Some measures are inutile:

     1.  Highway checkpoints
     2.  Physical barriers
     3.   Traffic flow  etc.

The covid 19 virus are molecules and non living but only acquires life when attached to the epitheleal cell of the host.  Even a dead person can not infect you (unless you ingest the body fluids) since he can not speak nor spew out the droplet infection.   

It is spread by droplet infection:   as large drops in cough or sneeze, or microdroplets when we talk or sing.    We are now getting it from family members.

The best bet vs covid 19 are:  1.  building immunity, 2.  face mask   3.  face shield  

Keep safe.  Wear masks, Stay away from crowds
