It’s absolutely preposterous to think you’re going to catch covid from a cop standing on a subway platform. If you’re so concerned keep your distance just like you do from any other wino riding the rails these days.

I don't like my family to be threatened.

I've lost quite a few family members and acquaintences to covid, plus a very close family member who hasn't yet recovered from their bout with covid 18 months ago.

So it's not drama, it's real. Just like those nuts who push people off subway platforms are real.

Wrong. There are many documented instances of covid transmission in public transit. The documentation is based on genomic analysis of the viruses among those infected.

Indoors mitigation against requires powered air ventilation and filtration. The subway stations and rail cars have not been retrofitted.

NYC subway engineers designed the system, especially the IND, to have trains themselves
change the air regularly in underground stations and tunnels. Modern tech trains do about 20 filtered air changes an hour in every car. It's the high volume of passengers that transmits COVID viruses, even with these air changes, because of their close proximity.

Nope.

Genomic sequencing determines who infected whom. They do this by the number of mutations from the initial DNA sequence to the virus in the infected people.

The where is determined by asking the people to trace their whereabouts.

There are countries that do 100% genomic tracing. That's how they discovered transmission on public transit. This venue for transmission has been known for over 6 months.

NYC subway engineers designed the system, especially the IND, to have trains themselves change the air regularly in underground stations and tunnels

The frequency at which trains enter and leave stations isn't enough to evacuate any covid from the ambient air. Also, there have not been tests to determine the flow at along every square inch along the platforms.

The trains actually do not exhaust the air. Air pressure rises, when a train approaches. This vent air to a location with lower pressure. A partial vacuum is created as the train leaves. This pulls the previously exhausted air back through the vents and into the station.

It's the high volume of passengers that transmits COVID viruses, even with these air changes, because of their close proximity.

It takes only a single source to trigger a super spreader event. It's not the number of passengers but the probability that at least one will be shedding viral particles.

Look, I understand your concerns & the real issues that your family had dealt with. That said, I stand by my opinion that your chances of catching covid from an unmasked policeman in the subway are next to nil
First off, you seem to be assuming that all unmasked policemen have not been vaccinated. I'm sure thats not the case.
Follow the rules of existing science; wear your mask & keep away from anyone in uniform and nothing should happen to you.
You have a better chance of getting hit by a car walking to the subway sta, or better yet, winning a million $$$ on Wheel of Fortune than catching covid from an unmasked cop.

"This pulls the previously exhausted air back through the vents and into the station."

Without any dilution or addition of fresh air?? I don't think so.
If what you say is true, smoke conditions would never be removed from the tunnels.

If what you say is true, smoke conditions would never be removed from the tunnels.

There are ventilation plants for that purpose. There are separate intake and outflow vents on either side of where the smoke condition exists. This provides a one-way air flow to evacuate the smoke.

Your links do not provide specifically address the ventilation in NYC subway tunnels. Sure there ventilation fans, but they were intended to be used in addition to the movement of trains to clear smoke. Take a ride on the Flushing line someday thru the Steinway Tunnel. Those trains act like pneumatic tubes when pushing out the stagnant air, as designed by the builders.

One-way flow is required to remove smoke from a tunnel. The ventilation shafts have powered fans that can blow in either direction. This allows passengers to be evacuated in the direction blowing in fresh air.
