COVID – 19 Survival Rate!
According to the latest reports, the coronavirus can live for about three days on some surfaces. Although the chance of getting infected by touching items or surfaces which are infected is low, it is not impossible. The study, published in the New England Journal of Medicine, also says that the virus dies over the course of 24 hours on cardboard, reducing the worry among consumers that deliveries will spread the virus during this period of staying and working from home.
According to Study:
Experts have explained that the virus is not airborne. But in fact, it can travel through the air and stay suspended for about a half-hour. The virus does not spread in the air at enough levels to be a risk to most people who are not physically near an infected person. The virus lives longest on plastic and steel, surviving for up to 72 hours. But the amount of virus decreases sharply over this time.
To be aware of:
Health care workers might also collect tiny droplets and larger ones of the virus on their protective gear when working with infected patients. They might diffuse these big and small droplets into the air when they take off this protective gear and become exposed to the virus. And this can be the same case with the clothes or garments used by the normal public. So, it is really important for everyone to properly disinfect your garments.
