"On January 23rd, the day Wuhan was locked down, a family traveled from there to
Guangzhou, near Hong Kong. The following day, they ate at a restaurant. Less than two weeks later, nine other people got the virus, five who were not seated at
their table. Some of the people who got sick, were more than fifteen feet away.
Researchers believe the restaurant's poor ventilation system, along with overcrowding, may have helped trasmit the virus.
"In places where we can't get good ventilation, we're going to have to come up with other strategies to clean the air." - Dr. Donald Milton, Prof, Environmental
Health UMD School of Public Health.
While COVID-19 is not classified as an air born virus, evidence that it could travel farther than previously known, is concerning. The World Health Organization, and the CDC have maintained that the virus rarely travels more than
six feet, and is transmitted by droplets. Understanding how the virus spreads is
one of the keys to stopping it. Another is testing."

I would point out, another key to stopping the virus would be understanding how to
speed recovery times. It would seem in the USA, people are infected, and thus presumably contagious, for some two months. In other countries, recovery time has
been calculated to be as little as eleven days (Singapore). This could be dependent upon how severe of an infection someone initially got, the strain of the
virus, or other factors such as their diets or physical health. These are just my
personal speculations.
