  1. At the science deep end, if you aren't fluent in the required mathematical language nobody, professionally, will give you the time of day. Verbal or visual descriptors won't cut it with them.
  2. How far away from the window and door are the smokers, typically?
  3. Proper sushi sandwhich.
  4. Is it done under negative or positive pressure? I think operating theatres are positive.
  5. I would think moisture would be needed on the alveoli surfaces to permit gas exchange.
  6. Given the novelty, every country is a test tube with different experiments being tried, and from the different results, scientists and politicians will surmise the best mitigating strategies going forward towards the next situation like this. We are all learning. There is no time or value for recriminations and blame. It is what it is.
  7. That's what the trillion and billions of dollars of handouts are for: to ameliorate.
  8. Miley does this classic quite well for this Floyd fan.

  15. Maybe use explosive subsonic charges attached to drones to deliver them, either as a missile or by gravity from above. A laser-guide could be used to work out the edge of the swarm and then the explosion can calculated to occur when the missile has penetrated the swarm sufficiently for maximal efficacy.

  17. I was reading some stuff yesterday on what it takes to really understand GR, and tensors don't really get you there if you want to understand purely mathematically. There seems to be two types: those that can work with it and those that understand it.
  18. That supports the minimum 2m rule. It also suggests to me that it's not so infectious as an aerosol.
  19. I think only if it's moving wrt something else that it can influence; like a conducting wire..
  20. They'll also become more obstructed with condensed vapour.
