The most incredible spread: the sole can also spread

In April, a new study published in the journal emerging infectious diseases by the Centers for Disease Control and prevention showed that the new corona virus can be transmitted through the sole of shoes at least 13 feet (about 4 meters).

The new study was written by researchers from the Military Medical Research Institute of the PLA Academy of Military Sciences, Wuhan huoshenshan hospital and Wuhan Central Hospital. The researchers tested air and ground samples in huoshenshan hospital and found that about half of the medical staff working in the ICU had new coronavirus on the soles of their shoes.
