Most ominously, the authors found a number of similarities in aerosol and fomite transmission between this virus and SARS-CoV-1. (MedPage Today)
Our results indicate that aerosol and fomite transmission of HCoV-19 is plausible, as the virus can remain viable in aerosols for multiple hours. (FOX 10 Phoenix)

okuženi predmet
Definition from
Sklep št. 1082/2013/EU:
Predmet, ki je okužen z nalezljivim povzročiteljem in prek katerega se nalezljiva bolezen posredno prenaša s človeka na človeka.
Example sentences:
Okuženi predmeti Virus se lahko prenese tudi posredno, in sicer če pridemo v stik s površinami in objekti, ki so bili predhodno okuženi z virusom. (Dnevnik)
SARS-CoV-2 se verjetno prenaša predvsem iz osebe na osebo. Do prenosa načeloma prihaja, ko je okužena oseba v neposredni bližini neokužene osebe (do okoli 2 m), z dihalnimi kapljicami, ki jih okužene osebe sproščajo med kašljanjem in kihanjem. Kužne kapljice lahko tako pristanjeno na obrazu neokuženih oseb ali pa jih neokužene osebe vdihnejo. Okužba se verjetno prenaša tudi tako, da se ljudje dotaknejo s kužnimi kapljicami kontaminiranih predmetov ali površin in nato kužne delce zanesejo v usta ali nos (in morda oči), a to verjetno ni glavni način širjenja COVID-19.
