All,

Up until now,  we have generally considered face-to-face viral transmission of COVID-19 and dispersion into closed or open spaces accordingly.

Please look at the attached study as it relates to infected individuals and the trail as they walk and states that that (young) children are most vulnerable taking into consideration their height.  It, however, does not discuss how this impacts unfortunate adults who are physically challenged and must use wheel chairs or medical motor scooters or have growth or musculoskeletal disorders.  Also, you can review the comments at the end.
