However, you can also use eye/face shields, which I have done at work; if you are concerned about exposure I would actually recommend doing so. Krazy_Kirby posted... how is this deadlier than ebola? It depends on your metric. Lethality vs ability to spread vs how well it can be treated/cured. A combination of high lethality + high ability to spread + low ability to treat makes for a truly devastating condition. If, for example, Ebola was an airborne infection, we would be absolutely fucked, as I think the droplet-borne COVID-19 pandemic has nicely illustrated, but we are fairly competent at preventing Ebola from spreading too far, so despite its extreme lethality, its inability to spread like wildfire causes the death toll to be lower. ... As for Black Death, we can treat it now. You need to keep things in perspective- how bad a thing is in relation to what tools we have to combat it, and how effective those tools are. Public health is not a simple subject. --- Hi <cite>Gaawa_chan posted [p:963280221] in Why the he...
