Exactly Fostex - that is why I was sceptical about cabin separation.
We also agree about transmission. I was pointing out the only way to get infected was to get virus from an infected person's airway into yours. There are indeed three ways this can happen:
Droplet from coughs and sneezes. A FFP2 mask on both the patient and recipient aims to stop this
Aerosol, mostly from intubation. A FFP3 mask is needed
Virus in sputum surviving as a fomite on surfaces and then being picked up on hands and transferred to the mouth. Gloves and not touching your face prevents this.
Glad of the opportunity to clarify. We need to give our colleagues clear advice and information. If anyone wants to PPM me please do and I will try my best to advise
Stay safe
