Highlights • Social distancing index Pd was developed on basis of exhaled droplet distribution and transmission.• The perfect-mixing-based Wells-Riley model was modified by introducing the social distancing index Pd and ventilation effectiveness Ez.• The safe social distance is recommended as 1.6–3.0 m considering aerosol transmission of exhaled large droplets from talking.• The modified model used one actual pandemic case to calibrate the infectious dose and verified by a number of other existing cases.• Projections using the validated model illustrated the efficacy of social distancing and influence factors on required ventilation rate.
