[QUOTE="SomeCallMeMom, post: 2590271, member: 32209"] Just my 2 cents... The virus has not been proved to be "airborne" as that means that the virus can survive in the air on its own without a medium (such as water droplets). The study where the animals were not in direct contact shows that whenever the infected animal sneezed/coughed/peed/shook, the particles of bodily fluid carried them to an uninfected animal. So, don't think of exchanging bodily fluids as kissing/intercourse, think of it as ANY bodily fluid (sweat/saliva/mucous/blood/etc.) & it will make better sense as to what they are saying. Of course, the media is probably only regurgitating what some scientist said without regard to how the general public will take it to mean. That being said, the incubation period is troublesome & combined with health care workers that are dressed in bio suits still getting infected, it is possible that the virus is airborne OR their decontamination methods are not working. I haven't seen anything to suggest this strain is resistant to what they are using to decontaminate, but I find it hard to believe that they haven't ruled that out. [/QUOTE]
