The method of measuring the aerosols is interesting. I'm not sure, when I read "hardly any measurable breathing air movements with woodwind and brass players" in the summary excerpt, that it's evidence that there isn't an accumulation of very small amounts of "breathing air" exiting the woodwind instruments at many different places, even if no single area of turbulence is detected in the artificial fog they used. I may just misunderstand what the study designers were doing, but I would feel more confident if the air around each player were sampled and analyzed directly for viral particles. I assume from other reports I've read that this kind of air sampling is possible.

A flute is suggested with a redesigned head joint that allows the flute itself to be played vertically. The writer seems to suggest that this *might* be a way to reduce viral emissions for flute players.I can see how this would be useful in reducing the spacing needed to each flutist's right in an ensemble. But I'm not sure how playing with the flute body vertical helps with this particular viral problem when the player is still blowing out over a horizontal mouth hole with a good deal of "breathing air" still going directly out into the area surrounding the player.
