Communications to public about spitting on the streets
I have seen people wearing masks and gloves outside and then push their mask aside to spit on the floor. I think when we are educating the public about social distancing, washing hands that will help to stop the virus spreading. However there's nothing about educating public on not spitting on the streets and floor.
Why the contribution is important
Spitting contains body fluids and when the act of spitting expels body fluid and droplets can be transmitted. When shoes step onto the spit, the spit is transferred to the shoe to home and then it can spread in the home of the person wearing the shoe. That potentially has the ability to spread the virus.
