We all know by now that we need to keep a safe distance from each other.


What about people Vaping


Tom McLean, chief scientific advisor to The Nanotera Group, said ?respiratory droplets? contained in the haze created by those using e-cigarettes and vaporizers could lead to the Covid-19 strain of the condition being unintentionally spread.

We can see the 'Smoke' - Haze when Vapers exhale. It gives us an indication of how peoples breath travels.


Just be careful.

God blimey, I never even thought of this.


More reasons to adjust your day.

I find I?m in and around home mostly during the day, with a last minute foray out to the shops (if absolutely required) to avoid pretty much anyone.


Now ?vapers? are added to avoid list.

The vape tool doesn?t actually do anything, it?s the person exhaling that creates the cloud of ?smoke? isn?t it ?

If so, then all the vape smoke is doing is highlighting how big the cloud is when someone exhales - whether vaping/smoking or not.

This means when someone is not vaping/smoking, the ?cloud? of exhaled air (which you can?t see) is at least as big as a vape cloud.

So, rather than there being an ?additional? danger, doesn?t this actually just show how careful we need to be around EVERYONE ?!

If I missed something, please point it out !

I think people Vaping Do enjoy making Clouds of Vape smoke. Much exaggerated to people just breathing out...


There is this plonker in the EDT that when standing at the Bar loves to blow his Vape 'Smoke'

up through the Overhead lights that surround the Bar.


Foxy.

Yes they seem to.

A friend in the country has a vape 'bar', his customers drop by to hang out and talk 'vape', lean against the bar and blow out voluminous clouds of whatever that shit is.

Gross !

People's breath travels whether you can see it or not, Fox. Is it more realistic and scary to see it?


Rather stand closer to a vaper than a smoker, regardless of viruses of any type. Exhaled vape is negligible in terms of harm when compared to passive smoking. Exhaled vape in the UK is probably cleaner than some of the so-called air that many people inhale in parts of some towns and cities. The coronavirus pandemic does not flourish because some people vape. The risk of fatality and impact on other health issues and health provision for all because of smoking is sadly incalculable - viruses or not.


With covid in play you should have even more reason to celebrate the fact that more people are vaping and less are smoking...


... and if you can judge your distance by their exhaled vapes maybe stick closer to the vapors rather than those stealthy non-vapors with their stealthy exhalations which could be anywhere.

    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet. 
    • i used to go there in the late 80's and '90s (?) the food was served cafeteria style and there was limited choice, but what there was alays tasted amazing!  The garden was an absolute paradise, you could sit in it to lunch in the summer!  i've tried to locate its site but Walworth Road has changed so much since then - does anyone remember the house number?
    • This is very true. For some people, not even just the elderly, their pet/s may be their most important companion. 
    • Be thankful for the NHS. This is the price to treat a dog or cat. Imagine what it might be to treat a human being with cancer
