On the one hand, the speed of corona in the whole world is becoming uncontrollable, on the other hand, scientists are constantly trying to collect new information about it. When the epidemic began last year, scientists said that it could be from touching a surface that the infected person had touched. Due to this, elevators, railings, doorknobs, metro, malls, etc. were all being sanitized many times. But according to the latest research, there is no need, because the corona does not spread by touching any surface.
What does the research say?
The director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said in a press briefing at the White House that it is extremely unlikely that touching a surface spreads the virus. According to American experts, the risk of getting infected by the surface is only 1 in 10,000 people. The CDC report said that with the increase of corona infection, the number of patients coming to hospitals has also increased. In such a situation there is a risk of surface transmission. But in-home or office, the possibility of corona transmission in this way is very less.
So how is the infection spreading?
The CDC report states that there is no denying that a person cannot be touched by touching the infected surface, but its rate is so low that it is difficult to believe. Experts say that this virus is spreading more through the air. According to the report, very small droplets from the nose and mouth of the corona infected person are present in the air, which infect others. The CDC has also released a new guideline regarding this.
According to experts, no evidence has been found so far that anyone has suffered a corona from touching the contaminated or infected surface. This virus is mainly spread through the air. The corona’s droplets stay in the air long enough. When it comes in contact with a human being, it makes its body it’s home. That is, you can get infected by this virus only through breath, so wear a mask and be safe.
Keep in mind, even though it has been said in the report that the cases of touching the infected surface are negligible, but it cannot be careless about it. Therefore, keep the home and office clean.
