After the tests were done in the USA, I posted it again last week....<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/yes.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":yes:" title="Yes    :yes:" data-shortname=":yes:" />I posted this - on 03-12-2020, 08:12 AMFinally..... someone did test the lifespan of the Covid virus on surfacesI have always maintained that the Corona viruses stay active for a long time on surfaces. Several times I mentioned that on currency notes it stays for 2 days (long before China started currency notes re-issue), some surfaces 3 days and at 4 deg C will survive for 28 days. Many probably didn't believe me, but what I mentioned was based on the research done on SARS virus. No one did tests on the Covid at that time.Now, tests funded by the US, and carried out at the NIH labs (Rocky Mountains) and also at Princeton & UCLA has released the results.It was found that viable virus could be detected in aerosols up to 3 hours post aerosolization, up to 4 hours on copper, up to 24 hours on cardboard and up to 2-3 days on plastic and stainless steel.Note: These were done at 65% RH and at 21-23 deg C temperatures.</blockquote>
