Summary[edit]

Description
English: A man mid-sneeze. Original CDC caption: "This 2009 photograph captured a sneeze in progress, revealing the plume of salivary droplets as they are expelled in a large cone-shaped array from this man’s open mouth, thereby dramatically illustrating the reason one needs to cover his/her mouth when coughing, or sneezing, in order to protect others from germ exposure."
Deutsch: Mann beim Niesen. Übersetzung der originalen Bildunterschrift des CDC: „Dieses Foto aus dem Jahr 2009 hat den Vorgang des Niesens eingefangen. Es macht den ausgedehnten, aus Speicheltröpfchen bestehenden Schwaden sichtbar, der kegelförmig aus dem offenen Mund eines Mannes ausgestoßen wird, und veranschaulicht eindrücklich, warum man seinen Mund beim Husten oder Niesen bedecken muss, um andere vor Keimexposition zu schützen.“
Français : Cette photographie a saisi un éternuement en cours, révélant le panache de gouttelettes salivaires expulsés sur un large périmètre en forme de cône à partir de la bouche ouverte de cet homme, illustrant la raison de couvrir sa bouche quand on tousse ou on éternue, afin de protéger les autres de l'exposition aux germes.
