<h2 class="mt-4">Frequently Asked Questions</h2>
<p>Jump to a specific question:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="#alcohol">Why did you include alcohol as a variable?</a></li>
<li><a href="#food">Why did you not include eating food as a variable?</a></li>
<li><a href="#distancing">Why did you not ask about social distancing?</a></li>
<li><a href="#personalFactors">Why did you not include personal risk factors like age or a pre-existing condition?</a></li>
</ul>
<hr>
<h4 id="alcohol">Why did you include alcohol as a variable?</h4>
<p>For a couple of reasons:</p>
<ol>
<li>Alcohol <a href="https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=effect+of+alcohol+on+perception+of+risk&hl=en&as_sdt=0&as_vis=1&oi=scholart" target="_blank">lowers perception of risk</a>, which may decrease distancing and mask-wearing</li>
<li>Alcohol <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2031886/" target="_blank">harms hearing</a>, which increases speech volume, which <a href="https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMc2009324" target="_blank">increases the emission of droplets</a></li>
</ol>
<p><a href="#top">↑ top</a></p>
<hr>
<h4 id="food">Why did you not include eating food as a variable?</h4>
<p>Eating food, in and of itself, does not appear to be a problem; removing one's mask is the problem, which has to be done in order to eat. If people are going to be eating at the event, the answer to the question about mask-wearing should be "none" or "some", which will raise the event's overall score.</p>
<p><a href="#top">↑ top</a></p>
<hr>
<h4 id="distancing">Why did you not ask about social distancing?</h4>
<p>The current formula triangulates distancing via three questions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Is the event indoors or outdoors? <a href="https://www.sciencenewsforstudents.org/article/coronavirus-covid-19-6-feet-social-distancing-not-always-enough" target="_blank">The recommended six feet of social distancing is a bare minimum for people gathering outdoors</a>. Spacing between attendees who are indoors, or who are not wearing a mask, should ideally be greater than six feet.</li>
<li>How big is the space? How many people will there be? This helps us calculate how many square feet of distancing is even possible for attendees.</li>
</ul>
<p>We chose this route rather than asking about distancing directly because studies suggest self-reporting is often, shall we say, <a href="https://news.iu.edu/stories/2020/05/iu/04-ask-the-experts-social-distancing-mask-wearing-covid-19.html" target="_blank">overly optimistic</a>.</p>
<p><a href="#top">↑ top</a></p>
<hr>
<h4 id="personalFactors">Why did you not include personal risk factors like age or a pre-existing condition?</h4>
<p>Two reasons:</p>
<ol>
<li>First and foremost, the inclusion of personal health factors may create the impression that the tool is dispensing medical advice, which it is not!</li>
<li>We want to keep the tool as quick and easy to use as possible, while also keeping it as broadly applicable as possible. Our experiments with more variables did not seem to significantly increase accuracy, so we left them out for now.</li>
</ol>
<p><a href="#top">↑ top</a></p>
