Newspapers Spread Virus: Myth Or Truth?

The spread of Coronavirus has proven to be fatal for many people as more than 20,000 people across the globe have lost their lives due to the disease. But what can be more fatal is the spread of fake fear and myths regarding the virus. There is a need to understand what causes the spread of the virus and how one can keep themselves safe from it.

Interim, one question that a lot of people have been asking is, can newspapers carry Coronavirus? As per the World Health Organization (WHO), it is safe to receive packages or things that are moved, travelled, or exposed to various conditions.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also claim that it is highly unlikely that Coronavirus could spread through the give and take of newspapers. This can lead to the assumption that newspapers cannot carry the virus across different people.

In India, as of now, the total Coronavirus cases stood at 665, while 13 dead and 43 have recovered.
