Being a loud talker may help people hear you, but it can also help make them deathly ill.
According to Business Insider, a mere minute of loud speech can produce over 1,000 coronavirus-containing droplets.
A new study has found these droplets can linger in the air for eight-plus minutes, presenting what the authors call a "likely mode of disease transmission." The research also suggests that louder speech produces a higher number of droplets.
