- 1. How does the coronavirus spread?
-
Covid-19 is a respiratory virus, and, much like influenza and others in this category, it spreads when humans cough or sneeze out tiny droplets of mucus and saliva.
If it lands on a hard surface like a doorknob or countertop, the virus can survive anywhere from a few hours to a few days. New research suggests that coronavirus
particles may also be able to survive for a few hours in aerosol form, contained in smaller droplets suspended in the air. When you come into contact with a droplet,
either by being in close proximity to a forceful sneezer or by touching a surface that said sneezer has touched with their sneezey hands, you can become infected.
Though coronavirus can’t be absorbed through your skin, it can enter your system when you touch your mouth, nose or eyes, or through a cut.
- 2. Is it safe to eat out or order delivery?
-
The government is now urging everyone in the United States to avoid eating out in restaurants and bars and to suspend unnecessary shopping trips. Many eateries are
still open for delivery and to-go service during the shut-down, but is it safe to eat food prepared by someone else? Fortunately, there’s currently no evidence of
coronavirus transmission through food. Few viruses can survive basic food safety measures, and fewer still can endure the acidic rollercoaster that is the human
digestive system.

March 23, 2020, OLYMPIA, Wash. — Washington Gov. Jay Inslee issued a statewide order to stay-at-home and stay healthy to
help slow the spread of COVID-19.
The order is in effect for all Washington residents and will continue until we hear otherwise. We are now in our fourth month. Face masks are now required
state wide when out in public.
Chapter WA-A did not have a Gathering in Mar, Apr, May, June or July. King County is still in a Modified Phase 1 posture. Unfortunately due to
COVID-19 and the restrictions in King County the Golden Steer cannot hold a group our size in our meeting room. But we did have a ride July 25th. Hopefully we
will have a ride again on Aug 22nd if we can not hold a gathering.
