Even though the trails are slightly quieter at dawn, Allen still finds herself in “close quarters” with other runners. While passing people doesn’t worry her too much—she goes around quickly and speeds ahead—these interactions, however brief, still raise concerns about spreading the virus.
“It does make the run a little less relaxing when I’m dodging people or see people diving into bushes to avoid me as I come to pass them,” Allen said., an infectious disease specialist with The Polyclinic in Seattle, keeping a six-foot buffer between yourself and fellow runners should help stop the spread of the disease because the virus is transmitted by mucus or saliva droplets that don’t travel very far or linger in the air for a long period of time.
