A
90-year-old Florida man who dressed in full protective gear to be close
to his wife and say a final goodbye has died of COVID-19.
I’m so sad seeing this story, but... no surprise? After seeing that his non-N95 mask has huge air gaps around his nose, and she’s not wearing a mask, after all that’s been said about how masks protect the person you’re talking to, but not the wearer. Not to mention sitting in close proximity for an extended period of time, which practically guarantees he will get it.
We stop transmission with:
1. Mask on infected person
2. Distancing and airflow
3. Sterilization and no touching
However, at 90, and with such a close bond, maybe he really didn’t want to survive, if she didn’t. It would've been even sadder, if she pulled through, and he didn't.
