With SARS-CoV-2, complications are more common than death, and it’s still among the top reasons why people die.
Re. cleaning it out of the air: It’s literally airborne and it can literally be cleaned out of the air.
When infected, people emit tiny fluid particles which contain the virus. These are so small that they don’t fall to the ground. Filter materials like in HEPA filters and respirator masks strip these particles out of the air. Very effectively. (Surgical masks don’t work. Same kind of material, gaps at the sides. It doesn’t work.)
We can literally clean the air. We do not have to breathe this virus in. That’s just one of the things we can do.

Why am I saying all of this?
Because I have a moral obligation to do so.
Why do I know this?
I don’t know anything. I’ve just read those scientific papers.
Why did I read them?
Because high-risk pregnancy.
But does it apply outside of high-risk pregnancy?
Yes.
