CDC Backtracks Again – Now Says Only 1 in 10,000 Chance of Getting China Coronavirus (COVID-19) from Surfaces
The CDC backtracks again – Now there’s only a 1-in-10,000 chance of getting COVID-19 from surfaces.
Surprise, surprise – the CDC is wrong again.
FOX News reports:
The CDC has made clear that COVID-19 is a respiratory disease transmitted mainly through human-to-human interaction but noted last spring that “it may be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their mouth, nose or possibly their eyes.”
The CDC website now cites several studies that “suggest that the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection via the fomite transmission route is low, and generally less than 1 in 10,000, which means that each contact with a contaminated surface has less than a 1 in 10,000 chance of causing an infection.”
This isn’t the first time the CDC has been way off base – pushing frightening data rather than promoting the truth about the China coronavirus.
