You alreadyWear your mask and practice social distancing during the public. But you wondered if there is even more than you can do to reduce your chances of spreading coronaviruses when you leave the house? Well, according to an expert, there is:talk less - or at least less strong.

"Each viral transmission route would fall ifWe talked less, or spoke less strong, in public spaces, "Jose L. Jimenez, PhD, Professor at Colorado University in Boulder who studies the transmission of the disease, recently saidAtlantic. "It's just a very clear fact. It's not controversial."

When you think about it, it is perfectly logical. We know that Covid-19 is propagated mainly through respiratory dropletsexpelled in the air when an infected person of sternates or coughs.Sing-Parently in church choirs, according toto a CDC study-The been called as a potentially high activity due to the probability that these viral droplets are expelled when a person opens broad mouth and plans his voice to crown a melody. So why would not it be the same to talk? And the answer is,he probably does-Sexuality when it comes to talking loudly, screaming or talking more pronounced than your average voice or murmur.

In an analysis of the recent search for social distancing published inBmj August 25, speak quietly or be silent was associated withA lower level of transmission of covidation In a variety of settings, inside and out, where group activities took place.

In fact, most often, the scream has been noted to increase the risk of transmission of viruses in relation to silence or in a normal voice.

"The truth is that if everyone ceased to talk for a month or two, the pandemic will probably die," said JimenezAtlantic, Adding this compared to shouting or shouting, speaking discretely viral aerosols of about five times, while being completely silent reduced them by about 50 times. AndDonald K. Milton, PhD, professor at the University of Public Health at the University of Maryland, told the magazine that "the silence and tranquility of speaking are reasonable means to intervene" when it comes to reducing the risk of coronavirus transmission.

Of course, no expert says that this is to suggest masks is no longer necessary. In fact, all the opposite. This is the combination of limiting how often and how much you are talking about when around othersand Wear a mask that would really make the most impact. However, Jiminez, is not too confident about bringing people to calm down.

"What we learned from the mask experience is that many Americans do not like being said what to do if they do not understand why it's necessary," Jiminez said. "People must understand that this virus is in the air and that they breathe 10 times more viruses when they shout or speak hard."
