OK so you get into an elevator and
someone else is there
and let's assume the worst they're infected with COVID-19.
How likely are you to become sick as well?
So in your everyday scenario people
coughing or sneezing
it doesn't actually get suspended in the
air,
it simply travels in these droplets
and these droplets will you know
they'll hit a surface
or they'll land on the ground,
but they won't stay suspended in
the air.
So if someone coughs or sneezes
your best defence is simply to face a
different direction.
Remember it is your face that you're trying to protect.
That's where the germs go in,
as long as they're not spraying those germs
directly at you, they're largely not going to get on you.
But where do those germs go?
Well, ideally into the person's sleeve.
Otherwise they're going here or
down here somewhere
or maybe even on the buttons here.
So safest assumption is simply, everything is contaminated
wash your hands and don't touch your face.
