What Surfaces Can Be Contaminated
As per the research on coronavirus, there is no specific surface that may or may not be contaminated. Not covering mouth while sneezing or coughing near any surface can contaminate that surface. Our hands are responsible for the transfer of pathogens from one place to another, as we touch most of the surfaces; hence the items we touch are frequently contaminated. These items include TV remotes, kitchen cupboards, kitchen surfaces, taps, door handles, fridge doors, etc.
