iii. Repeat this exercise while wearing a mask. Compare the amount and distribution of droplets. Clean the glass when you are finished.

b. Based on your observations, identify what actions should be taken when coughing or sneezing to avoid contaminating other people.

14. Study the protocol that the Lord gave Moses concerning leprosy in Leviticus 13:1-46 and compare those directions to precautions that modern health officials recommend for biosafety concerns.

15. According to Matthew 24:3-8, what does the Bible say about end-time diseases?
