“How is COVID-19 spread? When people cough, sneeze or talk, viral particles can be sent through the air and via droplets. Masking helps to prevent droplet spread, and keeping more than two metres apart and staying in a well-ventilated area can help to limit aerosol spread.

While not a predominant cause of transmission, COVID-19 can also be spread through objects contaminated with secretions from an infected person. The incubation period for COVID-19 — the time from exposure to developing an infection — is about two to four days with the current variant.”
