@Mohawkman - With a fecal and aerosol-driven bug it will be nearly impossible to evade it on a durable basis. If we pull the black ball the best you'll be able to do is hit any suspected infection immediately with inhaled steroids (e.g. Budesonide) and antivirals (e.g. Ivermectin) and hope for the best. If said person does not have pre-existing nucleocapsid recognition they're going to be in a LOT of trouble.

What happens in these circumstances is that instead of 1-in-10 or 1-in-100 viral copies released with each cycle getting into a cell the rate is wildly potentiated, frequently by double or more, and the resulting inflammatory response fucks you immediately and VERY hard since it's wildly beyond what your immune system normally is expected to deal with.
