[Durham INC] Update: long lead survival times for C-19 on surfaces - 17 days, new study

[Debra Hawkins]

Posting as a precaution and in spirit of help to anyone who finds the
information useful. New study just out wherein Covid-19 survives up to 17
days on surfaces. (Still no data yet on transmission from surface v.
person-to-person, but BBC overnight news had doctor/public health
professional that cautioned we have *no* evidence-based information on this
route of transmission (possible or not and how high a chance if it is)). Her
walk through for elders going shopping to do so safely was eye-opening, and
very detailed/complex. CDC shows what things will kill it on surfaces and
how to apply it and for how long, you can visit their site for more details.


 

Here for now is the update research on surface contamination/survivability
timelines recently discovered:
