Funny thing is all the hype and articles points back to this Aussie source. It would be better if there was more research info or peer reviewed info as I find it strange that we know it's more transmissible, but most are still saying due to the viral load of the infected person, not just because of how many x seconds you are exposed to it. Feels a bit unscientific that's all.

Oh I didn't see that....Fair, but isn't that a big claim to make based on the assumption that the person got infected there and then? I'm not saying it couldn't happen, but it could just have been being in the wrong place and the wrong time for that one particular case. Also the aussie case was when there were no mask mandates at that time if not mistaken.

I mean, it's just rather sensationalised for those edge cases, rather than focusing on the majority of cases where the emphasis should still be on safe distancing, masking up, washing hands, avoiding touching your faces etc.
