It's about three adult foot paces and a smidgen and it's there because the previous distance, two metres was becoming more of solution in search of a problem making it difficult to conduct everyday life while not providing that much extra protection because our sneeze droplets can go as far as six metres and frankly a face mask is a much better protection at preventing transmission which is why in England and Scotland you have to on public transport.
It allows more things to open up because not only did the built up infrastructure not work well two metre distancing with delays forming as people wait to get in, also it made it potentially unviable to reopen some where a metre plus a few measures to control transmission would work better.
It may help with the mess which is trying to reopen schools for all five days a week.
It with masks and no dry hair cutting is allowing hairdressers and barbers to reopen from July 4th having booked my appointment already that would of struggled otherwise.
Just gotta relearn the distances after the last three months or so.
