There's a doctor on Face The Nation right now who's saying this virus spreads mainly by surface contact.  Wash your hands and sanitize surfaces.   I guess it all depends on which doctor you listen to, or which one is on TV at the moment.

Wrong! The virus is spread from one person to another, not through inanimate objects. You must be close and breathe the same air in order to get the germ.

 

It's fine to be clean and wash your hands and surfaces, but that's not how this virus spreads. (You can check this out on UTube's replay of Dr. Osterholm's assessment.)


Why bother with hand washing and surface cleaning if they can't be sources of infection?

 

How do you explain the first case--did some inanimate object breath on an individual causing the patient zero infection?

@shoesnbags Because It makes us feel like we are doing something.

 

And because we are civilized people who like to be clean.

You are mistaken and you are spreading misinformation. Please try to better inform yourself about the virus.
