If I'm stuck in the same area as someone who is clearly sick (runny nose, coughing etc) is there some combo of short/long breaths or nose/mouth breathing that's a better defense against catching it? - eviltoast

    I remember learning in school that breathing through the nose is healthier than through the mouth because your nose is capable of filtering the air to some extent, some particles are going to get stuck in your nose rather than travelling further inside your body.
