So I went riding today (without any Spandex or butt padded pants - that will become relevant later) and decided to take precautions.

My wife fashioned a whole head mask out of a king size comforter we had and I put a pair of ski goggles over my eyes. I reinforced the mask with landscape cloth since if weeds cant get through it surely a virus can't.

Things were going great for awhile and I was getting a lot of looks of admiration and then it happened. I had just passed two selfish and ignorant ladies without a mask on and I accidentally passed a little gas. I know there is no clear science - yet -that says the COVID 19 virus can be transmitted this way but I looked back and one of the ladies was covering her nose and kind of gagging so now I'm concerned. Can a methane borne virus mutate and have immediate effect? Am I now responsible for yet another potential death?

I know there are several internet trained scientist on this site so I'm looking for some input. Thanks in advance.
