Droplet is nonsense.
The argument raised by IPAC in the article that: "I go into patient rooms and haven't gotten sick therefore droplet precautions are working" is idiocy.
Why?
For the same reason "nobody needs to wear seatbelts because I'VE never gotten into an accident" is.

And if this is the level of argument that IPAC is reduced to, we have _serious_ negligence issues with this field.
As I've said elsewhere there is not a single article directly supporting droplet.
Nor is there any logic that would lead viruses to travel in droplets only

Nor does droplet explain the failure of the two meter.
Nor does droplet explain the failure of the two row rule on airplanes.
Nor does droplet explain explosive transmission.
Nor does droplet explain certain instances of transmission like elevators

(which we then have to blame on elevator buttons and fruit trays, or in the article, random people "spreading" the virus)
Whereas airborne spread and stats of infection explains EACH AND EVERY ONE of these and other issues.
ALL OF THEM
ALL OF THEM
And we've done air studies that matched air flow to where ppl infected.
And we've measured virus in air.
And we've cultured virus out of air.

April 2020 I posted this paper. It was from 2006.
And there are others written 15 years earlier. People banging the drum for 40 years and the entire history back 100 there have been people saying air and it all made sense.

Secret for those who read this far:
Cultivated live bacteriophage (virus) out of the air in 1936.
