That's good point, aerosolized raw chicken meat water doesn't sound like a good time.

> That's good point

Why is it a good point?

Do you get disease at a rate we care about from smelling a fart? Or smelling raw chicken? Or cooking chicken and the aerosolize particles off that?

The tool seems to melt going off similar tech - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNwHDWlA7gE

Why does you brain think it's a good point other than you want to be negative? Because nihilism is cooler than thinking?

Dentists do ultrasonic scaling, which a ultrasonic water spray and are not dropping like flies.

What is the good point here, tell us more, love to hear it.

Dentists did avoid aerosolising procedures when COVID protections were in place, along with upgrading to FFP3 masks and full face visors.

Dentists wear masks, and the human mouth doesn't tend to contain Salmonella

Good news - ~all food borne pathogens are much denser than air. Not like slightly, about 1000x denser.

You are going to have about as much aerosolized raw chicken meat water (ARCMW) whether you use an ultrasonic knife or not.

The ARCMW touched by the ultrasonic knife will probably have significantly less alive bacteria than the stuff touched by the regular knife.
