I read that a new study from Hong Kong exmained the efficiency of surgical masks. As was expected, thse tredcue the ammount of huge droplets beign blown out by people. What they also shiowed however is somethign that cnanot be seen as reassuring: they showed that even finest aerosols blown out by people who during the test session did not cough or sneeze, but simply breated calmy, carried RNA from virus and was infectous. These were so fine particles that they passed through the surgical mask when the individual breathed out.
This means that the much wider openings you need to expect in ordinary textiles, cloth and fibres worn before motu and nose, are almost useless to protect anyone: the individual from the many, and the many from the idnividual. They found infected aerosol particles being exhaled also by asymptomatci patients (patients not showing symptoms and not sneezing or coughing at all). Asymptomatic patients carrying a surgical maks can infect other people despite their mask. It needs finer particle filters, there is no alternative. Other claims are simply propaganda. What i do not understand is why although severla companies stand ready in germany the German ministers do not start to build factories in germany for producing both clinal standard masks and producing certain drugs that we are runnign dangerously thin on. But then, on this they od not get their acts together since almost two decades now. But not even now they listen to the starting shots. Several companies stand ready and are just waiting for it, i read.

US President Donald Trump has said he will not wear a face mask despite new medical guidance advising Americans to do so.
Up to 4,000 prisoners in England and Wales are to be released in an effort to control the spread of coronavirus, the Ministry of Justice has said. China stops for three minutes to remember the dead. Mobile phone masts have been torched and engineers abused over "baseless" theories linking coronavirus to 5G.

Actually, for pandemic control, it does not even need a total stay-home-order, it even is encouraged over here to take a dose of fresh air by NOT stopping sports outside. The point is: you have to stay ALONE, isolated, 10m distance to others (the official rule is 2m , i say that is not enough, based on the findings of the MIT). Not building groups. Not staying stationary. Even better if the day is windy, then these huge clouds of aerosols cannot build up. Bicycling is ideal, because you move on average 4x faster than a pedestrian. But keep your distance to others, do not meet with friends, stay alone, stay away from others by 10m, which in the open, outside the town, should be possible.
German states have deliberately decided not to ban bicycles. Excercising this way even stimulates your immune system, like does keeping your Vit-D and Vit-C levels up to your physiologically possible maximum. In vitro they also showed that zinc can help to prevent the virus to copy itself once it entered a cell, but that was in the lab and in vitro, the problem is how to get zinc into the cell by just eating it. You cannot boost your immune system beyond its natural limit, that is a myth but you can care for keeping its ammo dumb filled up to that max level. Not all vitamines make sense as as nutrion supplements sicn ethey do not work that good if consummed alone and isolated, but a very few ones do and have been shown to reduce the risk of catching infections, depending on the nutrition scenario the individual is embedded in by levels between low 10s to up to 70% probability reduction. Namely Vit-D and especially over the dark half of the year. However: watch out for the stupids and the uncaring brutal egoists. These are indeed a real threat. When walkign in the green of open meadows or forest, it should be possible to identify these early and avoid them. Strolls in town I would avoid if not needed, on this I agree. Visiting shop I reduce to doing it once a week only.Places of tourist mass attraction in normal times I would avoid as well (beaches), since the probability of running into ignorrants is higher there, than in any forsaken place in the woods.
