When we cough and speak we launch droplets and if the person launching these droplets is sick from some kind of virus disease, such as COVID19, the droplets can contain viruses. These viruses have been found to be one of the main contributors to the spreading of the pandemic disease. If we can further understand where these droplets end up we can make more effective protective measures during a pa
