Recently, the temperature has rebounded rapidly, and many places have entered the flying flocculation period.
Some people are worried about whether the new crown virus will be spread through flying fluff?
On April 12, Wu Zunyou, chief epidemiologist of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said that the new coronavirus usually uses droplets as a carrier and is adsorbed on the surface of tiny droplet particles. It is expelled with droplets.
Droplets are generally relatively small, at 1-5 μm, and the transmission distance should be 1 to 2 meters. When a healthy person inhales the droplet particles adsorbed by the virus, they become infected.
The new coronavirus is generally not transmitted directly from an infected person to a healthy person in the form of a free virus. In the past two years or more studies, it has not been found that flying fluff can absorb the virus, and so far there is no report on the infection caused by flying fluff.

The new coronavirus is generally not transmitted directly from an infected person to a healthy person in the form of a free virus. The new coronavirus usually uses droplets as a carrier and is adsorbed on the surface of tiny droplet particles. The patient coughs and sneezes. The particles are excreted with droplets.
A healthy person becomes infected when they inhale the droplets that are absorbed by the virus.
So, everyone is concerned about whether the new crown virus will spread through the flying catkins?
It should be said, no.
In the research of the past two years or more, it has not been found that flying flocculent can adsorb viruses. On the other hand, so far, there is no report on the infection caused by flying flocculent.
