    [16] [39] [40] [41] Transmission was initially assumed to occur primarily via respiratory droplets from coughs and sneezes within a range of about 1.8 metres (6 ft). [42] [43] Laser light scattering experiments suggest that speaking is an additional mode of transmission [44] [45] and a far-reaching [46] one, indoors, with little air flow.
