This page collects observations, interpretations, and consequences for action about Transmission Routes of SARS-CoV2. Please observe the structure of the page, when you add your content. Please use references where possible. Remember to find the relevant page. For example, if your observation is about Sources, please use that page, instead of posting your content here.
Contents
What is already known
- Person to Person Transmission (close contact). [1]
- Droplet infection
- Cross contamination of hands
- No evidence of vertical (mother-child) transmission. [1]
- Potential of SARS-CoV2 to survive in aerosol. [2]
Feacal-oral transmission?
Observations
- Diarrhoea is a common symptom of COVID19. [1]
Analysis and interpretation
- The question raises, whether we should anticipate transmission routes as observed with SARS (via sewage overflow and aerosols)
Consequences for action
- Study faecal-oral transmission routes as risk factors for COVID19
