It’s a bigger deal than whether we need to wipe down our counters and packages.
==============
After months of telling us that the coronavirus lives on door knobs, countertops, packages and whatever … and that we need to disinfect all surfaces:
The CDC has issued a new directive that informs us that “The virus spreads easily between people, but not by touching surfaces, objects or animals”
On it’s own, this course reversal doesn’t trouble me.
Yeah, people have become more germophobic … and, store shelves have been emptied as consumers stocked up on disinfectants.
That’s OK. It’s good hygiene and consumers will eventually work off their overstock.
My issue: This course reversal fits a bigger, problematic pattern.
