Who said that? :O At most I've read it's easier getting it through droplets rather than from surfaces, but as far as I know there have been proved cases of transmission happened that way.

@revenant I'll give a look if I find any paper about it I might've missed.

@Elessar I got the washington post, global news and others in my browser but you got to pay for most.

@revenant Thanks for that, yeah paywalls are the worst.

Well the article says it doesn't spread easily, but it still spreads.

Still good news anyway, it was already known to us because otherwise we wouldn't have seen such a drastic fall of cases here in Veneto, where we've been implementing a public masking policy since much earlier (when the WHO still said it was useless, lol).
