justsayin001 -“just bc its possible to reach twenty seven feet doesnt mean every time a person breathes it will go that far, it could be a very small chance, perhaps only if its a cough or a sneeze. these slight chances may not be enough to qualify for safek pekuach nefesh, as not every tiny chance that something could lead to death is a shayla of safek pekuach nefesh”
You missed the point! The Rabbonim have already Paskened that you must abide by the Gov. rules, because it’s a Safek Pikuach Nefesh.
All I’m saying is just like 6 feet is Required to keep Halacha, so is 27 feet!
From Above:
“Lydia Bourouiba, an associate professor at MIT, has researched the dynamics of exhalations (coughs and sneezes, for instance) for years at The Fluid Dynamics of Disease Transmission Laboratory and found exhalations cause gaseous clouds that can travel up to 27 feet.”
