    Thinking out loud

    Covid can be passed if an infected person expels air like in a sneeze or cough.....right? That’s part of the reason to wear a face mask..... right?

    So can Covid spread if an infected person “ passes gas/ passes air”? 🤔 and if so are jeans a substitute for a mask? 🤔

    I'm pretty sure that covid cannot survive the gastro intestinal tract.......the ACID bath will kill anything.....

    I believe.

    Early on in the pandemic I read where the virus spread from one upstairs apartment to the one below via the sewer pipes. Evidently the vent pipes had a leak and the virus spread from the pipe into the air of the apartment below. So I guess that the virus can survive the human intestinal system in some cases. I personally would think that the stomach acid would kill the virus also. But maybe the virus got into the large intestine where there is not as much acid as in the stomach. The virus is small and can travel around in the blood stream and get into the intestine that way. I've not read or heard anything more about that method of spreading the virus. You might think that if the virus is in our intestines it could spread though the lakes and rivers where we dump our sewage and then get our drinking water out of. If you think about it the treatment plants don't really kill all the critters in the sewage as cryptosporidium spores get though the treatment process for both sewage and drinking water. Take a trip down to the local sewage treatment plant and then another trip to the drinking water treatment plants and see for yourselves. I remember going there in High School for our Biology class.
