A new report revealed that social distancing measures currently in place are based on outdated science. According to scientists, the so-called “six-foot rule” was based on experiences with past viruses that circulated before the pandemic.
Article by Ramon Toney from Natural News.
A meta-analysis published in the British Medical Journal determined that the concept of social distancing is oversimplified and outdated. Scientists who published the paper claimed that it “overlooks the physics of respiratory emissions.” The paper also added that other factors such as ventilation, specific airflow patterns and activity type also play a role in spreading the virus once the droplets dissipate.
Furthermore, it mentioned that the infected person’s viral load, the susceptibility of other individuals near the infected person and the duration of their exposure to infected droplets should also be considered.
The meta-analysis noted that 80 percent of studies found that respiratory droplets expelled when sneezing could travel as far as 26 feet. Given these findings, the scientists posited that the Wuhan coronavirus could go beyond the minimum six-foot distance mandated by authorities.
Even former Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Scott Gottlieb derided the concept of social distancing. The Trump administration’s FDA head admitted during a March 20 CNBC Closing Bell interview that the six-foot rule applied in the U.S. and the world “wasn’t based on clear science.” He remarked: “The six-foot distancing requirement has probably been the single costliest mitigation tactic we’ve employed in response to [COVID-19], and it really wasn’t based on clear science.”
According to Gottlieb, health authorities initially assumed that the Wuhan coronavirus would spread in the same way as influenza. Prior research on the flu virus indicated that it mainly spread through droplets – and standing six feet away from someone with influenza reduced droplet transmission.
“Six feet isn’t as effective as it would be if this was purely droplet transmission,” the former FDA head commented. He continued that health experts’ over-reliance on a flu-based model caused them to overlook other modes of transmission such as aerosols and contaminated surfaces. “We should have re-adjudicated this much earlier,” Gottlieb lamented. (Related: US may need to practice social distancing until 2022 to reduce coronavirus spread, say Harvard researchers.)

Even countries around the world do not agree on a standard measurement for “safe distance”
According to the BMJ meta-analysis, the droplet theory first emerged in the 19th century. German bacteriologist Carl Flügge initially proposed a safe distance of 1 to 2 meters in 1897, based on the distance where visible droplets contained pathogens. Fifty-one years later in 1948, a study that looked at the spread of hemolytic Streptococci bacteria found that 65 percent of participants produced large droplets only. Fewer than 10 percent of participants expelled droplets beyond 5.5 feet (1.7 meters).
But pathogen samples were collected from 10 percent of participants whose droplets fell 9.5 feet (2.9 meters) away. Large droplets falling close to an infected person nevertheless bolstered the scientific basis of the safe distance rule, now applied in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Different countries around the world interestingly have a varying definition of social distance. China, Denmark and France peg the distance at 1 meter. Germany and Australia peg it at a slightly linger 1.5 meters, while the U.S. follows 1.8 meters or 6 feet. With the different standards for safe social distance followed by different countries, it appears that such regulations are based on educated guesses instead of actual, sound science. (Related: For social distancing to truly work, people would need to stand 26 feet apart, say researchers.)
Furthermore, social distancing may protect against purported disease-causing respiratory droplets – at the cost of potential human connections. A March 2020 article published in Science magazine looked at this little-known consequence of this public health measure.
Yale University social scientist and physician Nicholas Christakis remarked that the spread of COVID-19 worldwide causes people to “suppress … profoundly human and evolutionary hard-wired impulses for connection.” Social distancing undermines the basic actions of seeing friends, congregating in groups and touching others, he continued. Christakis commented: “Pandemics are an especially demanding test … because we are not just trying to protect people we know, but also people we do not know or even … care about.”
Christakis noted that texting, email and video chatting apps such as Skype and FaceTime can alleviate the effects of prolonged distancing. “We are fortunate to live in an era where technology will allow us to see and hear our friends and family, even from a distance,” he said.
But technology cannot replace face-to-face conversations entirely. This is because elements of nonverbal communication such as body language, facial expressions and gestures can get lost with communication done via apps. University of Arizona behavioral scientist Chris Segrin explained: “When we interact with other people, a lot of the meaning conveyed between two people is actually not conveyed in the actual words – but in nonverbal behavior.”

Most “Conservative” News Outlets Are on the Big Tech Teat
Not long ago, conservative media was not beholden to anyone. Today, most sites are stuck on the Big Tech gravy train.
I’ll keep this short. The rise of Pandemic Panic Theater, massive voter fraud, and other “taboo” topics have neutered a majority of conservative news sites. You’ll notice they are very careful about what topics they tackle. Sure, they’ll attack Critical Race Theory, Antifa, and the Biden-Harris regime, but you won’t see them going after George Soros, Bill Gates, the World Economic Forum, or the Deep State, among others.
The reason is simple. They are beholden to Big Tech, and Big Tech doesn’t allow certain topics to be discussed or they’ll cut you off. Far too many conservative news outlets rely on Google, Facebook, and Twitter for the bulk of their traffic. They depend on big checks from Google ads to keep the sites running. I don’t necessarily hold it against them. We all do what we need to do to survive. I just wish more would do like we have, which is to cut out Big Tech altogether.
We don’t get Google checks. We don’t have Facebook or Twitter buttons on our stories. We don’t have a YouTube Channel (banned), an Instagram profile (never made one), or a TikTok (no thanks, CCP). We’re not perfect, but we’re doing everything we can to not owe anything to anyone… other than our readers. We owe YOU the truth. We owe YOU the facts that others won’t reveal about topics that others won’t tackle. And we owe America, this great land that allows us to take hold of these opportunities.
Like I said, I don’t hold other conservative sites under too much scrutiny over their choices. It’s easy for people to point fingers when we’re not the ones paying their bills or supporting their families. I just wish there were more who would make the bold move. Today, only a handful of other major conservative news outlets have broken free from the Big Tech teat. Of course, we need help.
The best way you can help us grow and continue to bring proper news and opinions to the people is by donating. We appreciate everything, whether a dollar or $10,000. Anything brings us closer to a point of stability when we can hire writers, editors, and support staff to make the America First message louder. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal or Bitcoin as well. Bitcoin: 3A1ELVhGgrwrypwTJhPwnaTVGmuqyQrMB8
Our network is currently comprised of nine sites:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Truth. Based. Media.
- Freedom First Network
- Based Underground
- Uncanceled News
- American Conservative Movement
- Conservative Playbook
- Our Gold Guy
We are also building partnerships with great conservative sites like The Liberty Daily and The Epoch Times to advance the message as loudly as possible, and we’re always looking for others with which to partner.
Some of our content is spread across multiple sites. Other pieces of content are unique. We write most of what we post but we also draw from those willing to allow us to share their quality articles, videos, and podcasts. We collect the best content from fellow conservative sites that give us permission to republish them. We’re not ego-driven; I’d much rather post a properly attributed story written by experts like Dr. Joseph Mercola or Natural News than rewrite it like so many outlets like to do. We’re not here to take credit. We’re here to spread the truth.
While donations are the best way to help, you can also support us by buying through our sponsors:

- MyPatriotSupply: Stock up on long-term food, survival gear, and other things that you’ll need just in case things don’t recover and we keep heading towards apocalypse.
We know we could make a lot more money if we sold out like so many “conservative” publications out there. You won’t find Google ads on our site for a reason. Yes, they’re lucrative, but I don’t like getting paid by minions of Satan (I don’t like Google very much if you couldn’t tell).
Time is short. As the world spirals towards The Great Reset, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report and the other sites in the network going. Our promise is this: We will never sell out America. If that means we’re going to struggle for a while or even indefinitely, so be it. Integrity first. Truth first. America first.
Thank you and God Bless,

six feet is a fiction for a school girl’s report. There has NEVER been a scientific distance for a virus transmission. Consider that an airborne virus and go 20 some feet (no spitballs involved) and live for up to eight hours.
