A group of researchers at the University of Central Florida have been modelling how COVID-19 spreads. The takeaway from their research is that if you're a COVID-positive younger man, whose only symptom is a stuffy nose, then you check all the boxes for being a super-spreader. The researchers have also created a kind of cough drop or chocolate that thickens your saliva as you eat it, and keeps you from spreading COVID particles. They hope their anti-COVID cough drop would be ready for sale by the end of the year. On the showm we speak to Michael Kinzel, Co-Author of the study & Assistant Professor with University of Central Florida's Department of Mechanical Engineering.
