After reading the BMJ study (https://www.bmj.com/content/370/bmj.m3223), I realized a lot of people could benefit from a more nuanced understanding of the various factors and how they contribute to the overall risk of COVID-19 transmission. But the table in the study was somewhat hard to read, since it was basically a five-dimensional chart. I am a science journalist who started learning how to code this March. This is only my second public tool, so please be gentle. Comments and suggestions are appreciated.

If I move them all to the middle, no change to risk. Then, Environment to the far right and back. It's now medium risk.

The console has some errors, which might be related.

Otherwise it's a good interactive summary that's not talked about enough.

Thank you for the bug report. Just fixed it. A version of a picture was missing, and the script interrupted because of the error. And thank you also for your kind feedback.
