How does it spread?
How does it spread?
COVID-19 is transmitted primarily through respiratory droplets, which means that it becomes infected, people should generally be in close contact with someone contagious and come in contact with these droplets.
It is possible that a person can contract COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes, but this is not believed to be the main way the virus spreads.
The virus spreads easily between people
The virus that causes COVID-19 spreads very easily and continuously between people. Mainly through the contagious pathogen. Information about the ongoing pandemic of COVID-19 suggests that this virus spreads more efficiently than the influenza virus, but not as efficiently as the measles virus, which is a highly contagious virus. In general, the closer and longer the interaction between people, the greater the risk of COVID-19 spreading.
The virus will also spread in other ways
It is possible for a person to become infected with COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus, and then touching their mouth, nose, or eyes. This is not believed to be the primary way of spreading the virus, but we are still learning about how the COVID-19 virus spreads.
