Taller people more at risk of catching Covid-19

[Soundscream]

Being under 6 ft is a positive in this case

University researchers believe taller people may be at greater risk of contracting COVID-19 compared to their smaller peers.

The early findings of a survey of 2000 people in the UK and US suggests that the virus is transmitted via what 'aerosol transmission', rather than droplets alone.

The study found that being tall, specifically being over 6ft, more than doubled the probability of having COVID-19.

[Mekanos]

Tall kings, don't let that silly virus make you feel ashamed of who you are. God gave us every inch of our being for a reason.

 

[Maximo]

5'8 and under people have finally developed a way to punish us tall people...

It was nice knowing you, Era.

 

[HiLife]

Imagine being tall.

 

[Mr. Snuffleupagus]

188cm and can confirm that I probably already got it in late January whilst in Paris.

 

[AndreGX]

This might partially explain why males were reported to be at greater risk?

 

[Parch]

The world was shorter. Now it will be shorter again.

 

[Strike]

Well, shit.

 

[smurfx]

[Garp TXB]

Finally, an advantage to my shortishness

 

[Soundscream]

Don't gloat short ERA, or with our dying breath we'll put the Rona vaccine on the top shelf.

 

[BWoog]

I'm doomed.

Air particles and such. It's why little kids aren't super spreaders along with lung volume and capacity.

 

[Hey Please]

Wear a fucking mask regardless of your height.

Imagine if the topic instead read that obese folks are at less risk compared to their skinnier counterparts. I wonder if some of the posts here would this fucking asinine.

Pretty confident any post saying they're now free to not wear a mask was sarcasm
