Mickwhitt 4,134 #26 Posted October 14, 2020 Looks like immunity is not going to come, so herd immunity is a myth with thus one. Masks are only good to prevent you from spreading it as far as I know. So I would want anyone visiting me to wear a mask for my sake. Surgeons wear them to prevent their germs going into open wounds, not to protect them from the patient. If the patient is infectious then they would wear far more than just a fabric mask. Keeping your own hands clean is a definite prevention move, after handling anything touching someone etc. The space idea is also good, although I'm not sure that the variations help, some are saying 1m other 2 and 3 metres. This may develop into a way of life for us, I hope not but its looking like this thing is here to stay. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
