Think about the spread in nursing homes, prisons, ships, and multifamily households. Your viewers need to know it’s more than just washing hands.

Governor Cuomo talked about 66% Covid-19 admissions are from people who stayed home. New Yorkers live in close quarters and in apartment buildings that share plumbing supply lines. Covid-19 fecal fume transmission makes sense.

Bloomberg article explains transmission.


"novel coronavirus is shed in the feces of infected people"

"...microbes...are inhaled"

"live virus particles in stool specimens indicates a fecal-oral route for coronavirus, which may be why it’s caused outbreaks on cruise ships...Diamond Princess..."

Here is a presentation that identifies the oral-fecal method of transmission.

The inhaled virus-laden fecal plume transmission must be told! You can handle it.

Hey, stay out of public restrooms!
There is a joke in the "fecal virus-laden aerosol plumes" that Butthead and Beaves could exploit. Or a possible weapon for a spy agency? But, seriously it is a possible factor and something further to watch out for and worry about. Good info.
