Coronavirus
Does covid 19 spread through surfaces or currency notes and coins? Like for example if an infected person sneezes on a surface and then a non infected surface touch the surface with the hand and then put the same hand inside mouth for eating without washing the hand? Will the non infected person catch the virus due to it?
Or does it spread mainly through human to human via respiratory droplets?
