I saw that too. Doctor on White House briefing today said the golden rule is 6 feet. So if you are in the slingshot travelling at 70 mph what is a safe distance and would the dispersion rate change the equation? Would a +5 windscreen mitigate?
Not really worried about the safe distance people need to be behind me in my Slingshot - - more worried about idiots who spit out their windows who are in front of me when I am in the slingshot
just saw this afternoon that an MIT study shows that droplets carrying Coronavirus can travel up to 27 feet in the air
President Trump, And Dr. Fauci answered that just a little while ago on todays press briefing [2 and a half hour briefing].......That 27 feet to paraphrase ; Is a full blown to annoy someone type sneeze....
I'm more worried about the asshats at the grocery store that had to grab EVERY apple, orange, etc and never buy anything. There's no way to know what they're carrying of how many days it's been since they washed ANYTHING on their bodies.
If it's not factory packaged, it's not going into my shopping cart until this virus thing is long passed by
Display MoreAt this point I haven't heard anyone inform that a ride to the grocery store in a car, slingshot or motorcycle is increasing the chance of transmission through the chosen mode. Although anything is possible no matter what precautions, in theory if you sneeze and someone is following to close behind something could happen. But the far greater danger would be at the grocery store.
Totally different than a baseball or basketball game which involve close physical contact. To my knowledge a jog or walk within the proper space guideline carries no additional danger. AGAIN WITHIN THE GUIDELINES.
From my observations the risk is not in the ride itself or the mode of travel but in adding another destination point (which very often a joy ride may result in}. What if I use my truck for transportation to the grocery store and travel with six people in close contact, Would that make for a greater danger than a single person in a slingshot? In other words the danger is the close contact and the risk of others at the destination who have been there without following the guidelines.
It's not an issue of "blood on your Hands" to go to the grocery store and pick up food for survival. Implying that I should feel guilty for going to the grocery store and having blood on my hands for that is just a bit over the top. Its appears your not applying a distinction between a trip to the grocery store vs. a basketball game or party. I did just see coverage of a large group of people gathering for a birthday for young child. That is a danger.
And yes if it is deemed unsafe to travel in an open air vehicle I will gladly comply. Haven't seen any indicators or concerns on that issue. In fact a ride in a car or SUV to the grocery store may contain several people with very close contact. Not good! So in some instances using the slingshot would be a better option?
Again I agree with the majority of your statement but have seen nothing implying the use of a motorcycle, slingshot or other open vehicle increases the danger.
it has nothing to do with the mode of transportation...it’s where you go and what you do when you get there. And why it was necessary.
CDC originally told people not to wear masks so they wouldn’t horde them. They wanted them to be available for first responders.
But now ....

the fact that they even brought it up, serious Concerns must have Been Raised.
I’ll be wearing mine in public from now on....if the virus is as contagious as they are saying...it’s not worth not wearing one....CDC or not...

can be carried 27 feet....is that without wind blowing? It’s been really windy here with gusts up to 50 MPH ....so how far will it spread in that kind of wind. I think it’s way more than 27 feet. If you’re up wind you’ll be ok...if you’re down wind you’re screwed ...

An average sneeze comes from your mouth and nose at somewhere between 40 and 100 mph.

Might be a good idea to wear a mask. A word of awareness as I have worn the N95 type mask during processes that last from 8 to as mush as 24 hours cumulative time (grinding and fitting turbine wheels). You will become uncomfortable in longer periods and its natural to adjust for comfort, perspiration, itch, water vapor, etc.
I think it's the message trying to be conveyed as in the article. At the end it states the possibility of risk increase if the mask is contaminated and touched. An added danger if the mask is worn without a proper seal or a person is constantly adjusting not realizing they are touching the face. It's something the average person may not think about or even a quick natural reaction. Something to think about.

This sort of "study" is sensationalized and disinformational.
Consider how many thousands of droplets spray out when you sneeze or cough. The farther away you go, the fewer droplets you encounter. Like throwing a waterballon on the pavement. The very farthest droplet of water has almost nothing to do with the majority of the splash pattern.
There is also such a thing as "titer" - the number of virus particles you must be exposed to in order to contract a disease. One droplet is highly unlikely to do this.
(And yes, before someone asks, I have done enough research in immunology and molecular genetics to know whereof I speak.)

one sperm cell can get you pregnant...the faster swimmer wins....
the majority of sick people have underlying conditions....so does it really take a perfect storm? Most of the deaths in Italy are over 80....and men with underlying conditions...
I can’t believe idiots are trying to claim their rights are being violated be the stay home order...
Does that include my right to come to your house sick? Or hang around in front of your house? Freedom of assembly...
Looking at some people, it's hard to understand that they're the product of the BEST sperm completing his job
what kind of guy would endanger his wife and new born baby....not to mention everyone else in the hospital?
life in prison would be a good start...

Actually, the CDC and the Surgeon General both announced exactly the opposite.
Wearing a mask make untrained people touch their face more.
The well wearing masks consumes desperately needed by the ill.
#NoMask
as of yesterday our county leaders (Riverside) have said that everyone should cover their face when out in public - they also made it clear that it need not be a medical grade mask, even a scarf will do.
I think its aimed more at reducing the distance a cough or sneeze will carry a virus and as a physiological tool to make people feel better than as real protection.
either way I am good I will use the American flag microfiber face scarf/mask I have for riding

If you are asking, is this mask right for Bigdog ?
Answer is...
Big n little o exclamation mark.
Got anything similar in plastic, form fitting, cheaper, and non-ventilated?

Walmart bag and duct tape should do it.
Wife and I are talking this morning - Time to put the Kool-aid down.
The numbers don't add up. This smells.... Something else is afoot.
Sure hope Trump doesn't have "swamp" doctors around him.
Ya lets just go with that.... China is sooooo forthcoming.
I see all the BEST RUN STATES in this picture.
