Liquor store and trash cans were most contaminated in our logitudinal surface sampling study of SARS-CoV-2 RNA but risk of infection was low. Check it out! #COVID19.
Can you get COVID-19 from touching the grocery store door handle? Probably not - we estimate the risk at <5 in 10,000. But SARS-CoV-2 RNA on high-touch public surfaces may be a leading indicator of community case trends. New pre-print out! #1440funded
