Beware: Coronavirus can spread up to 10 meters ahead in the air, new government's guideline


Posted on 20th May 2021 06:12 pm by rohit kumar

The coronavirus can also spread through the air. Now the government has also fully accepted this. According to the Office of the Principal Scientific Advisor to the government, aerosols and droplets are the major causes of the outbreak of the coronavirus. Droplets from a corona-infected person can travel up to two meters in the air, while aerosols can propel those droplets up to 10 meters and pose a risk of infection. Even an infected person with no symptoms can leave enough droplets to create a 'viral load' that can infect many others. This means that now even a distance of 10 meters is not enough to escape from the corona.

 

 

According to the Office of Scientific Advisor, the virus is released from saliva and nasal secretions by the infected person's exhaling, speaking, singing, laughing, coughing, and sneezing, which can infect others as well. Therefore, to break this chain of infection, it is very important to follow the Covid Approved Behavior. Wear a mask, maintain a safe physical distance and wash hands. According to experts, it can take up to two weeks for an infected person to show symptoms, during which they can also infect others. In addition, some people do not show symptoms, yet they can spread the virus.

 

 

According to the government's new guidelines, droplets and aerosols in closed and non-ventilated indoor spaces greatly increase the risk of the spread of the coronavirus. However, experts have always said that the risk of infection is less in places with ventilation and in outdoor areas.

 

 

The guideline calls for frequent and regular cleaning of surfaces that people are more exposed to. It includes a door handle, light switch, table, chair, etc. It has been recommended to clean them with bleach and phenyl etc. According to the guideline, the virus remains alive for a long time on glass, plastic, and stainless steel. Therefore, regular cleaning of these things is necessary.
