We have been two years into the pandemic situation. Most of us have been infected with Covid-19. Now, its new variant Omicron is increasing day by day. Also, one more variant Deltacron has been found. Once, again the hospitalization rates are increasing rapidly in many countries.

In this situation, we yearn to get back to normal. We all want to meet our friends or have them at our dinner. We all want to be in our routine back. We all want to go to gyms, dance in nightclubs without any fear of catching Covid-19.

But are we actually aware of this Covid-19? Do we know how likely we are about to catch Covid-19?
Let’s find out some simple answers to such questions

What is Covid-19 and how does it spread?

Well, Sars-Cov-2 is a virus that causes Covid-19. It spreads mainly by airborne transmission. There are certain air particles in the air. These air particles spread randomly. Then, these air particles came into human contact through the nose and enter the human body. Then, it affects our respiratory system.

How these airbone particles behave and you get infected with Covid-19?

Air is a fluid that is made of millions of invisible particles. It spreads randomly and rapidly moving molecules. These airborne particles disperse over time indoors. Indoors such as in a room or on a bus. An infected person may exhale those particles containing the virus. Now, if you are closer to that particular person, there are likely high chances to get infected. It is because as you inhale those infected particles also enter your body.

When these viral particles are emitted?

The viral particles containing infection are emitted every time an when an infected person breathes. It is deeper when their breathing is deep such as exercising and vocalisation such as speaking or singing. However, if an infected person wears a well-fitting mask, then it reduces its transmission as the mask blocks the release of infection.

How more are you likely to get infected?

These are the situations that suggest that you are more likely to get infected with Covid-19 infections.

• When you gather together with lots of people in an enclosed space and that too with poor air-qaulity. This means an under-ventilated gym, school classroom or nightclub.
