By now, most people know that 'social distancing' generally means staying at least six feet, or two meters, away from other people.<br />But according to Gizmodo, British and American researchers are arguing this blunt public health tool for COVID-19 prevention needs to be a bit more precise.<br />They say the six-foot rule is based on science from more than a hundred years ago, and is based on the behavior of different viruses.<br />For instance, it's been shown that the COVID-19 virus isn't always transmitted via droplets from breathing, speaking, and coughing.<br />Rather, it can be aersolized and travel through circulated air, as in air-conditioned restaurants, offices, and airplanes.
