That is NOT correct, the virus is carried in droplets (water/mucus).

I am out on a bright sunny day at the park. I sneeze.

Hypothetical question: How far can the droplets travel when a good breeze catches them?

I ask as my daughter and family live in London UK and 150 yds from their front porch is a nice park(56 acres). Mainly open soccer pitches..

They are doing their best to isolate, but the dog's gotta poop and the 5 & 8 yo's need fresh air to burn off energy. Today, they said there were less than 20 people there..

Concerned crumugion..
