How long after someone sneezes in a room is it ok for go in there after?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
SNEEZES CONTAIN AEROSOLES AND DROPLETS AND CAN LAST FOR AN HOUR OR MORE. DROPLETS ARE HEAVER AND FALL TO FLOOR SOONER THAN AEROSOLES THAN REMAIN AIRBORNE LONGER. IF YOUR CONCERNED ABOUT COVID THAN SPRAY THE ROOM WITH DISINFECTANT SPRAY FOR COVID OR STAY OUT OF ROOM FOR AN HOUR OR MORE OR JUST DON'T GO IN.
