Answer:
It is not certain how long the virus that causes COVID-19 survives on surfaces, but it seems likely to behave like other coronaviruses. A recent review of the survival of human coronaviruses on surfaces found large variability, ranging from 2 hours to 9 days (11).
The survival time depends on a number of factors, including the type of surface, temperature, relative humidity and specific strain of the virus.
Answer:
There have been reports of animals infected with the virus worldwide. Most of these animals became infected after contact with people with COVID-19. A small number of pet cats and dogs have been reported to be infected with SARS-CoV-2 in several countries, including the United States.Recent research evaluated the survival of the COVID-19 virus on different surfaces and reported that the virus can remain viable for up to 72 hours on plastic and stainless steel, up to four hours on copper, and up to 24 hours on cardboard.
