Dr David Lim and Professor Guy Marks discuss pandemic payments as an incentive to stay home, asymptomatic transmission and aerosols.
Dr David Lim speaks with Professor Guy Marks about COVID payments as an incentive to stay home, asymptomatic transmission and aerosols.
In this episode:
– A “COVID payment” should be paid to those who have COVID-19 or have come in contact with someone with COVID-19 as an incentive to stay home… this strategy has proven effective in other pandemics.
– 40% of infected people can transmit the virus BEFORE they become symptomatic
– Aerosol transmission of COVID-19 is a scientific fact… masks and building ventilation is very important
