- Walk through cough droplets that are still

vaulting through the air either on a crowded street,

Hi everyone, I'm Mark Keim, founder of DisasterDoc.

so they can protect themselves and others.

for staying well during social distancing

and why this is so critical and important for all of us.

is understanding how COVID infection occurs.

This virus needs to float in a warm bath.

when they come in contact with the droplet.

They come from inside infected people's lungs.

People come in contact with these droplets

either by direct exposure or indirect exposure.

to avoid infections and end this pandemic.

the longer that you decide to socialize in public

the longer every one of us will have to shelter in place

And if you do need to go out, avoid exposing yourself.

and some of us even work directly with the public.

and to protect our loved ones at home who are depending

upon us to not to bring home this infection.

We avoid those direct and indirect exposures

For a moment I want you to close your eyes

and picture this six foot bubble around your body.

Our bubbles change shape as we walk through the air

extending behind us a little bit as we move in the air.

we share the same air and the same droplets.

So when we share our six foot bubble with someone else

droplets from their cough are more likely

to reach our lungs unless we try to block it in some way.

Think of the world as being made up of three zones.

The hot zone, the warm zone, and the cold zone.

The cold zone is your home where everyone is healthy

and virus free when you're in your cold zone.

You don't have to worry so much about touching your family

or your face as long as everyone stays healthy.

The warm zone is the world outside your door.

outside your home where it becomes more likely

that others may step inside or perhaps even cough into

This could be your workplace, it could be standing

in line at the grocery store, could be inside an elevator.

These are the places where we should protect our bubble.

These are the places we should also be respecting

and staying out of other people's bubbles.

that by their very nature cause people to come in contact

with each other to share bubbles or to even touch.

they can occur during a cough in the subway

They can also occur when we inadvertently

walk through cough droplets that are still

vaulting through the air either on a crowded street

In these high risk zones you should protect your skin,

you should protect your mouth, your eyes, and your nose

When I return home I immediately disinfect these things

Also including my credit card and my cell phone.

And now I'm back in my clean little bubble

So mistake number one, people are still shaking hands?

Two weeks ago I attended a business meeting,

a public-health meeting where people were still

Touching elbows in some sort of odd elbow wing dance
