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.

    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
