The HEPA filters used in biohazard labs would fix it. The problem is largely the noise from the fans. Bacteria and viruses are particulate. The ones where they don't allow people are probably pretty near sterile for exactly that reason.

You can do it, but it's not easy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleanroom The problem is the hurricane you need . A cough can travel as fast as 50 mph and expel almost 3,000 droplets in just one go. Sneezes win though—they can travel up to 100 mph and https://www.lung.org/blog/sneeze-versus-cough

Essentially, the problem is not adequately specified or has no unique solution.

OK, I had a look

A new explanation of the electric current
John Cuthber replied to Mitko Gorgiev's topic in Speculations
Because it is wrong in many ways. All the relevant ones. It is entirely possible to build circuits where most of the conductors are not mental. But that's not the point. You do not NEED a metal. This is not a language problem. As far as I could tell by looking through it quickly, there were no experimental data presented in that document. -
Nobody is going to have compiled that list. Apart from anything else, it is impossible, because the materials are slightly variable. We have the genome, and the proteins involved which are the major components, but those are not precisely conserved from one virus to the next. Since you are looking for something impossible, I think your viewpoint is doomed to fail.

That isn't obvious at all. It's quite possibly not even true. Unless it isn't. The term is also used for these http://www.hambletonbard.com/how-to-make-wine-beer-moonshine-alcohol/wine-alcohol-meter-homebrew-vinometer.html Except it won't work very well. A saccharometer will be designed to measure densities above that of water. Solutions of alcohol will be less dense than water. To use a hydrometer to get anything like an accurate measurement of alcohol concentration of wine or beer, you need to know the density before and after fermentation. Otherwise the other components of the mixture will influence the density and thus the apparent alcohol concentration. In the absence of better data, about half the weight of sugar becomes alcohol.

Create visible light from magnetic field or antenna
John Cuthber replied to fredreload's topic in Speculations
You could sort of make an argument that this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second-harmonic_generation is used to generate green light from infrared using an "antenna"- the electrons in the frequency doubling crystal. But to make light in the "classic" electrons moving up and down a wire way, is a non-starter. -
I think pretty nearly everything is opaque at 116 nm

cannot transmit static electricity through wire
John Cuthber replied to Eiot's topic in Classical Physics
To be fair, they are closely related ideas. -
The experts are right. But the anecdotal evidence is interesting. The cost (in whatever terms) of doing the trial isn't high. The potential benefits are large. So it's worth doing the test. The costs of what Trump is suggesting are much higher. The benefits (if there are any) are similar. That's the difference between the two approaches. One is reasonable, the other reckless.

We now need to add "It was the international Maritime Organisation's fault that we hit the iceberg, so I'm not paying my membership fee".
