Different standards. Plus temperature makes a big difference. The colder, the longer it remains potent. Apparently above 45-50 C, it denatures. |

Also, having electricians, and appliance repair people visiting your home presents a real threat of virus spread. They shouldn't be moving around the community, let alone actually entering people's homes. As for groups of builders working on empty houses, they are a threat to each other - possibly spreading the virus between them, and a threat to others by travelling to work. They are not wearing protective masks or googles, unlike delivery men. (I've had prescription deliveries, where they were not only well protected, but put the meds outside my front door while I stood in my enclosed porch - he indicated that he wanted me to stay in the porch until he'd left.) Things have become very tough in the UK in regard to the lockdown. No way would a repair person be prepared to enter our houses; nor would we want them to. And it is not included as one of the exceptions to the "not leaving your house or having contact (physical) with people not in your household" stance taken by the government and being enforced by the police. For the moment, at least, the builders and decorators are not working on the house next door. I have a feeling that the old man who lived there won't be returning, but will remain with his son. The house will probably be sold. No house sales are taking place either, and completion dates are having to be postponed for those who were in the process. |

The coronavirus RNA was found on surfaces of the Princess Cruise ship up to 17 days after passengers disembarked, new research by the CDC shows. Researchers looked at the COVID-19 outbreaks on the Carnival-owned Diamond Princess ship in Japan and the Grand Princess ship in California. The coronavirus’ RNA “was identified on a variety of surfaces in cabins of both symptomatic and asymptomatic infected passengers up to 17 days after cabins were vacated.” https://www.cnbc.com/2020/03/23/cdc-...gers-left.html |

While you may not have a wire, there are wires somewhere in the loop to get the data to your phone.
