A friend (thanks, Ted!) directed me to a nice science-based article that assigns some probabilities of risks of transmitting a disease like coronavirus. The author highlights two major scenarios:

1. Warm body transmission: how far apart should you be from other people if you want to avoid transmission from another “warm body”
2. Surface-based transmission: what precautions should you take when you go somewhere that others have passed through recently.

You won’t be surprised by the takeaways:

• 6 foot distancing is good
• wearing a mask is good
• washing hands is good

…but some of the discussion and details are interesting. View the full article at Medium.
