Novel viral pneumonia is an acute respiratory infection caused by a novel coronavirus infection, and novel coronaviruses can be transmitted continuously from person to person. The main transmission routes that have been identified include: 1. Respiratory droplet transmission, droplets expelled by an infected person when sneezing, coughing, or talking, and exhaled gas, which can be inhaled directly by an infected person at close range can lead to infection.
2, contact transmission, droplets deposited on the surface of various objects, contact and contamination of the fingers of susceptible persons, and then contact with their oral, nasal, eye and other parts of the mucous membrane can lead to infection.
In addition, the latest research found that the feces of the infected person contains the nucleic acid component of the virus, so it does not exclude the possibility of transmission through the fecal-oral route.
