Dr. Fauci says that here is how to avoid covid outdoors
"You have to find a delicate balance," says the infectious expert of the disease.
One of the best adviceDr. Anthony Fauci, the top infectious-disease expert from the nation, gave during the coronavirus pandemic is that "the outside is better than from the inside" -It is a better idea to get to the outside that In the closed spaces, because the virus can be easily transmitted by the recirculated air used by the recirculated air used by the cooling and heating systems, while potentially infectious respiratory droplets are rapidly dispersed by fresh air.
Some may have taken this advice a little out of context: the ceremony of the White House for the candidate for the Supreme Court Amy Coney Barrett, held largely outside in the rose garden (well That most participants did not wear masks or social distance distancing), is being echezled as a source of a CVID epidemic that has affected at least 25 people, including President Trump.

Outdoor transmission is possible
"It's a lot less a risk, but it's a risk, if you meet in a way where, for prolonged periods, you are really close," Fauci answered. "So you really need to hit a delicate balance."
He then gave his advice to hold secure outdoor gatherings, with warning, "I'm not saying it's perfect."
"If you separate in almost like people's pods that you know attention, people who have been tested, you know they are negative, you know they are not reckless and stay with them, but not all about They, says Fauci. "You could be separated by a fair amount. Obviously, you do not want to wear mask when you jump into the water. Swim, have fun. But when you go out, when you sat down, put a mask on. "

"Enjoy, with a small care"
His message: outside, it's better than inside, but it's not foolproof. But you are not obliged to nail you inside either. "You do not want to tell people not to go on the beaches because the beaches can be a safe place," said Fauci. "The wind will blow up all things. You do not have to worry about things that hang around droplets. So it's something you should probably enjoy, with a small care."
