Recent epidemiologic data shows that the group most responsible for

There's no way to stop or prevent anyone from catching a virus.


Quite frankly, Muggles, you say ridiculous things.


Who have you prevented from catching a virus?


Many.* When I have a contagious virus I stay home and do not infect
others.* Pretty simple concept has been around for years.* Precautions
help. Distance, masks, etc.

How does you staying home prevent anyone from catching a virus? You
could have spread it before you knew you were sick. Isn't that one
argument in favor of masks?


Probably your mother told you not to cough or sneeze on others.* That is
a start.


Not coughing or sneezing on others doesn't prevent one person from
getting sick. Those people around you are still exposed.
