[ARC5] AB5S Kung Flu Update, 13 June - source?

[Hubert Miller]

Generally good advice, but I question the non-cough non-sneeze 26 foot business, no matter what your doctor said.
I have read several articles in the New York Times precisely on this question, and those articles are well informed,
very well informed, frequently updated. Ask your doctor his source for his information. I recall now they also had
an article comparing actual effectiveness of different kinds of masks, both homemade and commercial, and gave
actual numbers compared to N95, and what thickness required even with homemade.
Also, masks are dry material, so what is your informed reckoning of how long virus lives on them ? 
As for health professionals dying despite masks, well, you would have to know the extent of their exposure and 
their full suiting equipment to assign this to mask inefficiency.
Don't forget UV exposure either, to kill virus. These parameters apply outside also. 
I found Elderberry anything to be pretty much sold out locally last time I shopped, but I'll take another look in the 
next days.
