22、r way around. While the virus can spread through droplets (飞沫) propelled into the air when a cold-sufferer coughs or sneezes. Surprisingly, this is not the most common route of transmission. Numerous studies have now shown that the overwhelming majority of colds are “caught“ by hand contact. A cold
23、sufferer rubs her nose, thereby transferring the virus to her hand, Then a friend comes to visit. “Dont kiss me,“ she cautions, so the friend steps back and presses her hand.
