COVID-19 is mainly spread from person to person through respiratory droplets that are expelled when an infected person coughs or sneezes, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention explains. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby, or even be inhaled into the lungs. The virus can also spread after someone touches a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touches their mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes.
Face-touching is much more common than most people realize. Research on how often people touch their faces is limited, but one small study published in the American Journal of Infection Control observed 26 medical students and their face-touching habits. The researchers discovered that students touched their faces an average of 23 times an hour. Of that, 44% involved touching the nose, mouth, and eyes, and 61% were a combination of all three areas.
