Original Note:
Handwashing and blocking coughs/sneezes are insufficient. Infectious people exhale SARS-CoV-2, which can linger in the air and infect outers. <1 in 10,000 infections are prevented by handwashing. The post skips effective mitigation: vaccines, masks, and air purifiers. https://archive.cdc.gov/www_cdc_gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/more/science-and-research/surface-transmission.html https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(21)00869-2
