Safe out side and Garden

[Briancoombs]

Hello

I’m COPD I’m taking Trimbow Salbutomol Plus Tablets

Should I wear surgical mask outside and in garden. Is this virus 🦠 in the air or if your meetings people to catch it

Thank you

Hi Brian

From what I understand it is passed person to person, not through the air.

So going in the garden is fine.

It’s not airborne so far as I know. You should be fine in your garden. We go into our garden at the moment. It’s nice to be outside.

Take care xxxxx

Would be horrid no garden. No masks needed according to TV as they don't work. Ill fitting means you adjust more. so you touch your face more..

It is in droplet form, so just have to be out of cough/sneeze distance.

[Briancoombs]

Thank you I’m still wearing my surgical mask

Hi Briancoombs - Simple answer is NO. If you wear a mask unless medical grade they are worse than nothing. You are not supposed to touch your face, with an ill fitting mask you will do just that to adjust.

In any case virus is not airborne so washing hands is all that is needed and isolation if need be, Hope this helps.

As long as you are not close to a neighbouring person, if alone you shouldn't need one.

No - exercise and eat well, virus doesn’t survive in sunlight anyway so if it’s sunny get outside- avoid people but get that all important VitD x

You obviously have never studied science- it’s a fact that light, even fluorescent light can destroy viruses- better do some research instead of posting false opinions - you do not know what you are talking about unfortunately

Research before opening mouth is a good thing x

The article specifically says purple laser light. Not light. It's light all day for heaven's sake

Opinions don't matter, there are facts and non facts
