Physical distancing, face masks, and eye protection to prevent person-to-person transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis thelancet.com/journals/lance…
"The findings of this systematic review and meta-analysis support physical distancing of 1 m or more "
"From a policy and public health perspective, current policies of at least 1 m physical distancing seem to be strongly associated with a large protective effect, and distances of 2 m could be more effective"
"For the general public, evidence shows that physical distancing of more than 1 m is highly effective and that face masks are associated with protection, even in non-health-care settings, with either disposable surgical masks or reusable 12–16-layer cotton ones, although..
..much of this evidence was on mask use within households and among contacts of cases"
"Eye protection is typically underconsidered and can be effective in community settings."
