A team of researchers did some modeling and reported:

"We saw how the droplets moved in the airflow around people and if they died down on the ground, or on the surface of another person,” he said.

To avoid the droplets, they recommend staying 15 feet from others when walking, 33 feet when running or cycling at a slow pace, and 65 feet when running or cycling at a faster pace."

FYI

Makes you think.  If 15 for runners what would it be for cyclists?
