A member asked:
If one wears a mask and keep more than 6 feet away, no coughing or sneezing, than what are the chances of that person spreading covid-19 aka coronavirus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Covid 19: I can not provide you with statistics on this. Other issues that come into play are if the person is in a crowded, poorly ventilated indoor space or not. The proper use of mask, social distancing and lack of coughing /sneezing are certainly protective factors.
