There is an assumption by the medical community that this strain of Coronavirus is transmitted similarly to alternate strains which includes:
Direct transmission through droplets expelled during coughs and sneezes.
Indirect transmission through touching surfaces and devices contaminated with the virus, and then touching the mouth, nose or eyes.
Direct contact with patients or infected animals or animal products.
The Ministry of Health (MOH) is working closely with a number of international organizations, including the World Health Organization (WHO), to determine how the virus is spread, in humans and animals.
