For the new coronavirus going around, aka COVID-19, good hygiene seems to be the best line of defense.
According to HuffPost, the virus has only been on the radar for a couple of months.
Therefore, there is no preventive vaccine yet, nor is there an effective way to treat the respiratory illness the virus causes.
Researchers are getting close to putting potential vaccines to the test. However, it’ll likely be about a year before they’re ready.
Early evidence suggests the coronavirus mainly spreads through respiratory droplets that float through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
Those droplets can either land on people ― making them sick ― or they can fall onto a surface and take up residency for some time.
Exactly how long remains unclear, but early evidence suspects the virus can survive up to nine days at a comfy room temperature.
Public surfaces are known hotspots for dangerous bacteria and germs.
A study from 2018 found that contagious, disease-causing bacteria from people’s guts and feces can be found on most public touch screens.
