.. that is: μm - unit of weight, in micrograms.  1 gram=1,000μm     droplets weigh 5 to 10μm,     aerosols weigh less than 5 μm A large proportion of the spread of COVID-19 occurrs through airborne transmission of aerosols rather than droplets.   Aerosols can:  - Accumulate  - Remain infectious in indoor air for hours  - Be easily inhaled deep into the lungs Measures to reduce aerosol transmission;  Universal masking. Humans produce respiratory droplets ranging from 0.1 to 1000 μm.  Particle size, gravity, and evaporation, determines how far emitted droplets & aerosols will travel in air.  Saliva Droplets will fall faster than they evaporate; contaminating surfaces and leading to contact transmission.  Aerosols will evaporate faster than they can settle. They are buoyant and can be transported by air movement over 6 feet. There are two major respiratory virus transmission pathways:  1. Contact between pe...

The tribal healer, or  traiteur , was known by the native Houma people for his potions and salves that seemed to treat any sickness. Now, the traditional herbs are in danger, Pitre said, threatened by decades of coastal erosion, hurricanes and development that have crept up on Golden Meadow in Bayou Lafourche, where many members of the United Houma Nation once lived. “A lot of the plants that my great-grandfather used and that my grandfather grew up with are no longer there,” he said.  So Pitre, 26, and his grandfather began uprooting herbs to replant them on higher ground.
