The risk of surface transmission of Covid-19 is low, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Monday. Far more important is airborne transmission -- and people who obsessively disinfect surfaces may be doing more harm than good..
"CDC determined that the risk of surface transmission is low, and secondary to the primary routes of virus transmission through direct contact droplets and aerosols," Vincent Hill, Chief of the Waterborne Disease Prevention Branch, said on a CDC-sponsored telephone briefing.Hill said the risk of transmission from touching a surface, while small, is elevated indoors. Outdoors, the sun and other factors can destroy viruses, Hill said.
And bleach itself can be harmful."Nineteen percent wash food products with bleach, which could lead to their consumption of bleach that isn't washed off, which can damage the body because bleach is toxic. Eighteen percent used household cleaner on bare skin, which can damage the skin and cause rashes and burns," Hill said.Hill added that surveillance data show the volume of calls to poison centers in 2020 for disinfectants was higher than in either 2018 or 2019.
Jeeesus Christ!!!... These people. 🤦♂️
They ALWAYS say its 'low' but never say how low. The percentages. Why Because THEY DONT KNOW.

American CDC? The institution supposed to contain the virus and terminate the epidemic? No denying the disinfectant might be some harm to the environment though.
if that’s true why don’t u say ... we no longer need to wash hands!
Hummm, the CDC is just as bad as Quack Fauci. The Quack and CDC flip-flop more than a fish on dry land. Their creditability is ZERO.
What kinda BS is CNN leading with? You can get it from surfaces, wiping down surfaces also helps with common colds and the flu. Heard much about the flu this year? NO!! Just say then that idiots are using non household chemicals to wipe down. Just come out an say DONT BE IDIOTS!
Follow me i follow back
It’s been that way since the beginning. They knew and kept it from us to keep us in fear.
Best preventive measure I think CDC wise guys should say is STOP BREATHING
CDC admits the risk of surface transmission is low after carrying on about sanitizing surfaces. This was as difficult to get them to do and took longer than getting Dr Fauci to stop saying 'people should not be walking around with a mask.'
All these precautions are for show
Well of course they are. Next week it will be the other way around
only reason youre required to wear a mask is china is making trillion$. if youre old or are a fat fuck, yea you might struggle w covid and die because you already are hyperventilating walking up stairs. COVID is a lie and not a threat to our way of life, only the government is
Stupid , everyone knows that having a garage full of toilet paper is the only true protection against Covid-19. Morons
Not airborne. Airborne
We don’t cover our food in grocery store but we spray here ! Lmao 😂 brilliant!!
We’ve known this for a long time. You’re just now reporting it because a lot of your liberal followers are starting to call the “media” out for the fear mongering you’ve been doing for the last year.
Just wait until next week and you can change the rules again...
Hmm. I said this when it started, and they were showing trucks driving down city streets overseas pumping out disinfectant mist.
you're kinda getting the public confused by posts like this. shouldn't DrFaucis1 make a stand here?
good luck
Been saying this since the beginning. All for show.
Poverty
If you put too much of a cleaner on a surface it loses potency. It is based off of what spread basically.
No more having to wash our hands!!!!
