great article about viruses

lots and lots of info here - not too hard to understand - from 2016

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4788752/

==============

from the article

"A virion's machinery is so efficient that each cell infected by even
a single virion can produce about a million new virions."

it sounds like I can walk past a shedder - catch just 1 virion - and 5
minutes later have 1 million virions attacking me

(guessing it is 5 minutes - maybe it is 5 seconds - maybe it is 50 minutes)
