We already knew that it is airborne. There is a study out there with its life on certain surfaces and in the air. I believe 3 hours in air. Don't quote me on that

@JaggedLittlePill Yes, I understand there were a few technicalities the experts couldn't agree on at first... Like what's really "airborne" (has to do with the size of the particles they hold onto...)... At first it was thought (hoped) it would only be transmitted if some one coughed or sneezed on you, but it's more subtle than that... It explains the high number of health officials and politicians that now have COVID, I'm sure they took the basic precautions (hand washing etc.)
