perugu_vada Posted July 30, 2020 Report Posted July 30, 2020 A new study says that people who are 6 feet or taller are twice as likely to be infected as others. The researchers think this is proof that the virus can spread via the air. The non-peer-reviewed study was published in medRxiv and could benefit from more research in the future. But the researchers think that people over 6 feet tall have more than double the chance of catching COVID-19. The explanation for the increased risk for tall people is the presence of viral load in aerosols. https://bgr.com/2020/07/29/coronavirus-spread-airborne-transmission-tall-people-study/ Quote
