Yeah - I know that it's not spread human-human yet...
But when/if it becomes spread between humans.. my assumption was that it will be primarily spread in the same way as other forms of influenza.
I've just found an old text here....
Emergency Medical Treatment (Nancy Caroline) quite definitely says "droplet spread". Key protective measures for medical staff is "wear mask".
and
Wikipedia says that influenza is "... is transmitted from person to person by saliva droplets expelled by coughing"
...
Overall I accept that it's a good idea to wash your hands after certain activities. But in terms of protection from BF, well I'm not convinced that this will save many people.
Sheesh. I just accept that my hands or dirty most of the time... and avoid too much eye/nose/face contact.
