"There have been troubling reports that indicate the coronavirus may be able to travel farther in the air and stay in the environment longer than is possible by respiratory droplets, which have so far been assumed to be the primary mode of transmission of the virus. One study in Singapore found...

She's sexy. Where did you find her?

I wonder if this COVID-19 virus will ever be stamped out ("go to zero", as you say). Or will it be like the annual flu that keeps on killing many thousands year after year, even after a vaccine is found?

"But some health experts, including the director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, think that’s a mistake. Health authorities in parts of Asia have encouraged all citizens to wear masks in public to prevent the spread of the virus, regardless of whether they have...

Outdoors to buy groceries, which means walking through apartment building hallways & elevator use to get there, places where airborne COVID-19 virus can last for 3 hours, even without any "coughing (or) sneezing". As the OP stated: "After all, it has been reported the virus can remain airborne...

"...When people do venture out and interact, they’re likely to spew some saliva. “I don’t want to frighten you, but when people speak and breathe and sing—you don’t have to sneeze or cough—these droplets are coming out,” he says. "... initial evidence suggests people without symptoms may also...

Yes, that's true. And many people are making home made masks: "How to make an effective face mask at home" "...The researchers used regular cotton t-shirts to make no-sew face masks. First, they boiled the cotton for ten minutes in order to sterilize it. Then, they cut the cotton to size and...

Put tape over the nose & mouth holes to seal them & that could be an effective mask. Even better with goggles or something to protect the eyes of the person wearing it.

Actually your article states the opposite re droplets: "...masks are effective at capturing droplets, which is a main transmission route of coronavirus, and some studies have estimated a roughly fivefold protection versus no barrier alone..." And, as for aerosols, it depends on the type of...

Looks are irrelevant when health & life are in serious danger. And there are many possibilities for masks such that there are more than enough for everyone, as I said & quote myself: "I believe any reasonable barrier may help & is significantly better than nothing, from scarves to balaclavas...

As in donating - already used - masks to a hospital? Do they really want - used - masks? If the government wanted these masks & didn't want the public buying them online such as at Amazon.ca, why hasn't the government already purchased all those available at Amazon.ca & other online sellers...

Just like wearing a condom. It protects both the user & others from infection. "... masks are effective at capturing droplets, which is a main transmission route of coronavirus, and some studies have estimated a roughly fivefold protection versus no barrier alone..." I feel safer with it on...

Apples & oranges, hence all irrelevant. The recent usage & apparent successes of (hydroxy)chloroquine have nothing to do with "prevent(ing) infection" of COVID-19, but post infection treatment. Moreover the best success results were when it was used in combination with another drug.

Not as a ghost town as there has been quite a few people & traffic. It's more like a holiday, like you'ld see on Christmas day. People are still out walking their dog & the vast majority of walkers are keeping a good distance apart (practicing "social distancing"). All but a few businesses...

That study starts with: "In recent decades, drugs used to treat malaria infection have been shown to be beneficial for many other diseases, including viral infections." And ends with: "Based on these observations, we can state that the use of antimalarial drugs might be useful, especially in...

I assume you think you know what you mean by "reputable sources" & by "this" (whatever that refers to). So why don't you share your opinion on what you think they are (i.e. a full and complete list of them). Or just consult them yourself & report back here what they have to say, with links to...
