I am starting to think there really isn’t much asymptomatic spread. It’s more presymptomatic so I do think that makes it a little easier to handle

Yup, I think asymptomatic spread is low and limited to a very short timeframe and not present at all in many asymptomatic cases.

What I didn't understand was how was an asymptomatic person spreading it when they didn't have symptoms to spread it, like coughing. I get that people sneeze or cough even when they are not sick, but if people would wash their hands, wear masks, cough/sneeze into their elbow, then asymptomatic spread would not be occurring at all.
Too many people that are symptomatic are going out into public and spreading it cuz they don't really care or just figure they don't have it. |

Contact tracing shows that, when it comes to COVID-19, being outdoors is 20 times safer than being indoors, which argues that aerosol transmission is much more important than droplets; outdoors, there’s plenty of air in which aerosols can become diluted; not so indoors. |

Aerosol transmission depends on size as well. Big ones contain more virus, fall quickly, small ones not so much linger.

You should just stay in your house until we have a neutralizing immunization. See you in a few years.

Oh ****. Did not know that. Is there any other virus spread like this? Could you imagine if this thing was killing just like 5-10% of people? Id never leave my house lol.

If SARS-CoV-2 is airborne, wouldn't the R0 be comparable to other viruses which are also capable of airborne transmission?
