a good common sense article on the risks of infection

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

1. Commonality of outbreaks.

I want to repeat what you posted above:

The reason to highlight these different outbreaks is to show you the commonality of outbreaks of COVID-19. All these infection events were indoors, with people closely-spaced, with lots of talking, singing, or yelling. The main sources for infection are home, workplace, public transport, social gatherings, and restaurants. This accounts for 90% of all transmission events. In contrast, outbreaks spread from shopping appear to be responsible for a small percentage of traced infections.

When I point out that there's no evidence that people are getting infected from mail or ATM keyboards, people here often tell me I don't know what I'm talking about. I've even referenced this article before, and again, get told I don't know what I'm talking about.

There really is no need to sanitize every single thing that comes into your house. Really.

Thanks for posting this again.
