Why it matters: This theory sounds wacky. But the more you think about it, the
more it makes sense. Speaking English means using aspirated consonants like P,
T and K, which means small droplets fly from the mouth of the speaker. There
are all kinds of variables when it comes to the spread of COVID-19, but
researchers studied 26 countries and found countries with aspirated consonants
had 20% higher rates of COVID-19. Suffering succotash ... it's a good thing we
don't all talk like Sylvester the Cat.
