The Chinese coronavirus can be transmitted not only by airborne droplets, but also through diarrhea.
Science Alert reports that not only people coughing and contaminated surfaces that they touch, but also the toilet seat pose a threat to healthy people.
Doctors in Wuhan drew attention to the fact that the coronavirus in some people provoked complications associated with the intestines and stomach. For example, in one hospital in Wuhan, nausea and vomiting were observed in 14 patients.
Researchers later recorded the presence of coronavirus on the toilet lid used by infected people. This proves that the coronavirus is also transmitted in faeces, which creates additional problems.Other coronaviruses, including SARS, have also been transmitted through toilet accessories. This has led to the fact that in Hong Kong, hundreds of people living in the same housing complex were infected.
