Putting Safe Distance Measures to the Sneeze Test

The video explores the effectiveness of different safe distancing measures using mannequins and a luminous concoction to visualize droplet spread. Distances of 1 meter, 1.5 meters, and 2 meters are tested, revealing that even at 2 meters, droplets can still reach others, especially if they touch their face or clothing. A study from MIT suggests droplets can travel up to 8 meters, indicating that current distancing guidelines may not be sufficient. The video emphasizes the importance of maintaining greater distances to reduce the risk of virus transmission.
