Why is this marked grammar? It's still just the same words in the same order, so grammar is immaterial. – tchrist♦ Jun 13 '20 at 19:40

Not correct. Stay consistent with comma or em dash with your sample sentence: 1) "To minimize transmission, which mainly..." 2) "...of infected droplets--many countries..."
