    The 6 foot distancing that wasn’t really ever followed well was a compromise to keep things open for the economy while pretending we’re doing something. What amazes me is how there wasn’t any mandate to require air filtration at key points in places with crowds - like a Corsi-Rosenthal box, the DIY stores could have had these in the front with a how-to-build and they would have made tons of profit while supplies lasted. I guess 6-foot stickers and signage was easier and cheaper. Remember when some stores tried to go further and enforce one way aisles?

      “Corsi-Rosenthal box” my ass. Woodworkers have been using this poor man’s filtration system for years before he ever “invented” it.

      What an ass to think his idea was novel enough to slap his name on it.

      Edit: This isn’t an attack on the person I replied to. Just the scientists who are trying to take credit for this “invention”.
