@syag-lchochma Ah I see now my mistake. I take it back. When I refer to “Corona Kofrim” I refer to people who actively deny that COVID-19 is an actual issue. Those people who claim it’s “just a flu” or something similar and refuse to do anything to mitigate any risk or damages that they may cause, no matter how small.
It actually is pretty close to 95%. There are other methods of transmission, sure, like by touch. But the overwhelming vast majority of people who got COVID got it from someone who they were in close proximity with inside and wasn’t wearing a mask. I made it a habit to ask people how they got it. “I talked to a guy outside of shul and we took our masks off. He came back from a Chasuna where no one was wearing a mask” “I got it from my son who got it from a friend” “I was in a Yeshiva dorm” “A shiva” etc.
How did the exceptions that you know about catch it?
