It could be but I think in Singapore they when to Jupiter(sp) suits because the other way just was not cutting it.

They went to Jupitor suits on March 31st in Singapore. Unfortunately on the 29th several staff were infected.

This virus must be easily airborne. Probably a very small virus too. Perhaps as they were removing the gowns, gloves and masks, it became airborne again from the surfaces of the protective gear. Also any exposed facial skin/hair not covered by the eye shields and mask might be problematic too. It sounds like a disinfectant decontamination shower is needed after any patient care.
