C.Canbay` comment on the spread of Covid-19

Today, the spread of Covid-19 virus is known in some ways, but it is not explained why the rate of spread is so high.

Under normal conditions, the air molecule consists of 78.084 percent nitrogen, 20.96 percent oxygen, 0.934 percent argon and 0.03 percent carbon dioxide. The density of the air increases depending on the amount of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, methane and some air pollutant particles. In fact, the principle of occurring of antibodies and cytokine-like structures around viruses, bacteria and cells containing DNA and RNA basic elements was demonstrated in terms of Canbay theory, both experimentally and analytically (1, 6). According to the Canbay theory, cytokine-like structures emerge at the surface of T cells because of the dielectrophoretic force of the equivalent antenna structure in the center of that structure. This is also valid in viruses. When looking at Covid-19 virus, the incident is occurred in the same way. The antenna structure in the center in a virus, that is, RNA molecule will create dielectrophoretic force in accordance with the symmetrical knobs on the surface of corona virus. The mass of the clean air molecule is 29 Da and mass of the corona virus around (40-70) kDa range. Corona virus is 1000 times heavier than the air molecule as a whole, so after droplets comes out of the mouth of a patient, it falls to the ground depending on the first speed and direction. When the diameter of corona virus is taken as approximately Rcor. = 100 nm, and the diameters of knops the corona virus as rt = 5-10 nm, the mass of one of the corona virus knobs will be approximately mt = (25-106) Da. However, in environments where there are air molecules that weighted due to dirty particles (as in residential areas with excessive industrial air pollution), the corona knobs may become free as the virus collides with the contaminated air molecules. These knops of corona viruses with mass of between (25-106) Da may remain suspended in the air without falling down like air molecules.

Most epidemiological studies have been explored by scientists that viruses can move kilometers away from the source of the virus by meteorological events (7).

For this reason, corona viruses may not pass only with contact. They suspend and spread by dirty air molecules also may be stayed suspend and move according to meteorological conditions.
