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 [b]easily[/b], 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).
