... and what about the produce you're handing, the same produce that is handled item by item by the checkout operator wearing virus infested gloves. Like I said, think about how the virus is spread rather than getting hung up on social distancing. The likelihood of someone being infected and coughing on you and their cough hitting you in one or both of your eyes, in your mouth or up your nose is rather remote compared to the likelihood of it being spread through your produce:

How coronavirus is spread

Coronavirus is spread in sneeze or cough droplets.

You could get the virus if you:

come into close contact with someone who has the virus and is coughing or sneezing

touch surfaces that someone who has the virus has coughed or sneezed on

As it's a new illness, we do not know how easily the virus spreads from person to person. Spread is most likely from those who have symptoms.

The virus may only survive a few hours if someone who has it coughs or sneezes on a surface. Simple household disinfectants can kill the virus on surfaces. Clean the surface first and then use a disinfectant.

The virus is most infectious when ther are no symptoms rat .....because people dont know and dont isolate and are mingling .....at least that was the situation a few weeks ago before all the social distancing was requested ....I put up a link bout it last week

No, it's not at it's most infectious when there are no symptoms, the problem here is that the carrier and you are likely to believe no virus is present and will happily exchange bodily fluids without precautions'
You should always behave as though you have the virus and do not want to pass it on, if everybody did this we'd all be safer.
Too many, and I feel many on here believe they should protect themselves from others and that their spit, faeces and cum is ambrosia

I actually havnt disagreed with anything you say there if you analyse wat I wrote ....but I do disagree with you wen you believe you are not at risk by bring those 2 people to ros common for example ......if you wer told at the airport by the airport police that they had the virus and would you mind bring them home ....wat would you do?
How do you know wheather anyone in your taxi has it or not ? Do you ask them to leave if they cough? And if they have it and have no symptoms....are you capable of getting it off them ? According to the experts you most definitely could ...

No I'm not disagreeing with the hse ...infact I totally agree....
I am positive it's mostly spread by touching objects then touching your eyes but the fact of the matter is ....if you are on a confined space within 1 or 2 meters of a person for more than 15 minutes then you are at risk ....that is also hse guidelines....I think ther are a cople on here who are bending the rules so they can justify makin a few bob when they have to realise at some level that they are putting themselves at risk .....wats that phrase that lipp uses ....." cognitive dissonance " I believe

You are at risk... correct. That doesn't mean you will contract it simply by being within 1.98 metres of the carrier. It means there's some chance that they will cough directly into your eyes, mouth or nose or that they will leave the virus on a surface that you will subsequently touch, etc... Risk means it's possible regardless of how improbable. You can, of course, reduce the risk by following HSE guidelines on hand hygiene surface disinfection.

HSE don't seem to attach much risk (of course there is some) to a direct hit from a cough as they conclude that:

Using masks is unlikely to be of any benefit if you are not sick.

I suppose we could take this deeper ratt ...and as an ocd fiend I realise I may take extraordinary precautions...but have you ever seen the spray of a sneeze from somebody in the sunlight?
That shit gets everywhere ..and it floats ....and its possible to
Transmit within the air you are sharing with an infected person ...it doesn't have to be a direct hit as you call it

Why do you think HSE dismiss the use of masks, then?

I was just over at the Centra across the road and the check-out operator changed his rubber gloves after dealing with each customer.

It would seem to me ratti ....and correct me if I'm wrong here pleaese........but every report I've seen of a hospital in china or a hospital in italy .......why is every doctor  or nurse wearing a mask .? ...... that is the question ide put to the HSE

They use the correct ones, and they're fitted properly.
