Why stand 6 feet apart?
In the UK they are asking people to stand 6 feet apart when outside such as food shopping. But they are not saying why? They are not saying stand 6 feet apart because the other people may sneeze on you or cough on you. All they are syaing is stand 6 feet apart.

To me it then begs the question why are they saying stand 6 feet apart from eachother? Does anybody know?

Re: Why stand 6 feet apart?
I found out the answer

The "6 feet of distance" rule comes from studies of respiratory physiology, said Dr. William Schaffner, infectious disease expert at Vanderbilt University.

"Without a cough or a sneeze, if we exhale, the distance 3 to 6 feet from each other is called the breathing zone. And it's in that kind of volume of air that what I exhale begins to mix with the air that's already in the room," Schaffner said. "So if you're standing within 3 to 6 feet of me, you may well inhale some of what I exhale. And of course if I have the virus, what I'm exhaling microscopically contains the virus."

I've seen multiple news reports on BBC and Sky etc., that precisely explain why. Projectile from a cough typically doesn't go much further than 2m, occasionally it can breach that, but for the vast majority of time its contained somewhere in that region. A news reporter on the Beeb demonstrated it with some neon dye, and the projectile that comes out from a cough is quite surprising. 2m / 6ft is pretty sensible and good round number.

I think the answer is so obvious that they don't need to explain that it is because of sneezing and coughing...

Don't tell me that you that it's a 666 thing...

Because hugging INCREASES your immunity. Maybe that's why they say to stay indoors, too - because sunlight IMPROVES yours and my immunity!!

Everything they tell us might be well meaning, but it's flat out wrong.
