More than a year in theCOVID-19 [FemininePandemic, many has changed what experts know the virus. But an early supposition is always true.

Most people were "physically close to someone
"Covid-19 is thought to spread mainly by close contact with a person, including people who are physically close to each other (about 6 feet), "says the agency on hiswebsite. "People who are physically close (within 6 feet) a person with COVID-19 or have direct contact with that person are at the greatest risk of infection."
Covid spreads through respiratory droplets or small particles produced when an infected person touches, sneezes, sings, speaks or breathes.
The droplets usually fall on the six feet floor, where they no longer pose a danger of transmission. Small particles (aerosols) can linger in the air and cause an infection (so-called airborne transmission)."It is proven that under certain conditions, people with COVID-19 appear to have infected other persons over 6 meters," says the agency. "These transmissions took place in closed spaces that had insufficient ventilation. Sometimes the infected person breathed herself strongly, for example, while singing or doing exercise."
But, the notes of CDC, close contact is a mode of transmission much more common than the aerogen. "The available data indicate that it is much more common than the virus causes the propagation of COVID-19 to spread through close contact with a person who has COVID-19 than through airborne transmission. "
