Nope. Quite the opposite actually. I read at the beginning of the pandemic that they found covid on a book 9 days after exposure, and that was it for me. Since the eye was also a transmission vector I figured it would be best to be safe and sanitize everything. I was worried about getting it on my hands, rubbing my eyes, and getting infected. That turned out to be really low risk, but I like no risk a lot more than low risk.
I definitely did no such thing and still have never caught covid.
I feel like I was dumb not to at the time, and got lucky that it wasn’t a transmission vector
It was dumb to. Covid doesnt survive that long on surfaces
Had that been demonstrated in the very beginning?

Nobody knew that at the time, don’t pretend you’re smarter than the WHO.
pretty sure i am smarter than a couple of musicians
At the time though it was believed it could stay on surfaces for something crazy like 48 hours.
