MIT Study Suggests Six Foot Social Distancing, Limited Occupancy Rules
Are Completely Pointless
A new study conducted by MIT scientists and released this week reveals
that the six foot social distancing and limited occupancy guidelines
made law in most of the civilized world have done little to slow the
spread of COVID-19, and suggests the only way to reduce the spread of
COVID-19 is to limit exposure to highly populated areas and areas
where people are physically exerting themselves
Paradoxically, states and cities that have engaged in severe lockdowns
have seen the largest spikes of COVID-19.
    “We argue there really isn’t much of a benefit to the 6-foot rule,
especially when people are wearing masks,”
