Sneezing Onto The Floor

Sneezing is your body s natural reflex to banish nasty germs from your nose propelling them up to four metres.

Sneezing onto the floor. If everyone sneezes onto the floor the sneeze droplets will land and be kicked up when people walk around. Even walking through a room can spread droplets in a person s wake. Opening a door can dramatically alter the airflow in the room and pull up viruses on the floor. But wherever it was nobody s recommending that anymore.

I don t know where i ran into that. Viruses such as the common cold or flu. Sneezing onto the floor is still going to spread the germs you just sneezed out of your body just the same as if you sneezed without trying to protect anyone. Some experts believe that sneezing and coughing are likely the primary forms of transmission.

Kwok said talking face to face or sharing a meal with someone could pose a risk. The sneeze droplets will evaporate and the virus particles will attach to dust particles and be kicked up when people walk around.
