There is a possibility I missed when “the WHO originally issued a statement”. If you would like to provide that reference, I’d be glad to research and compare dates as they relate to the other/conflicting statements that came out from them as well as from the CDC, NIH, as well as from leading PPE experts and government directives/statements.

Put you mask on and fart, breathe through your nose. Still smells don't it, the virus is smaller than the sent molecules. Follow the science

@Marc07 oh dear... most transference is through droplets... that is the science.

How is the coronavirus disease transmitted?

The virus that cause COVID-19 spreads primarily through droplets generated when an infected person coughs, sneezes or speaks. You can also become infected by touching a contaminated surface and then touching your eyes, nose or mouth before washing your hands.

How does COVID-19 mostly spread?

The virus spreads mainly through the air when people are near each other. It leaves an infected person as they breathe, cough, sneeze, or speak and enters another person via their mouth, nose, or eyes. It might also spread via contaminated surfaces.

Prefacing your parroted mentra with: “fact is” doesn’t transform it to fact, no matter how many times it is repeated nor how many actual facts are censored.

Since you want to give hints, I’ll return the favor.

Hint: You are not citing a fact when you mockingly repeat the party line. (Where is your reference?) Instead you are displaying 5 of the 6 sociological characteristics of a cult as explained by Andrew Naselli a decade ago. Ref: [andynaselli.com].

If it makes you feel better about my hint, you can feel free to preface it with “fact is”. (Or you can look up the reference I cited and look up the word “citation&rdquo.

If I have offended you by mirroring your dogmatic condescension, I’m only a little bit sorry. It is a common military tactic called a counter-offensive. I have become lazy when dealing with the same old liberal tactics of shutting down thought provoking conversations (ie censorship). I will endeavor to treat you with the same respect with which you treat me and others. With that in mind, I would be glad to research any “cited references” that might add light to a civil discussion, if they are actually and not just mindlessly parroted.

@Daveclark5 Oh dear I cited scientific fact sonny...You need to do more research and get a better understanding of the facts.
Hint... the virus travels in droplets.
I could even cite you things by size if you like but I'd be wasting my time apparently.
If you were really interested you'd have found the real facts by now... they are not hidden.
