The disease is spread mainly from person to person through droplets that fly out of an infected person's nose or mouth by coughing, sneezing, or talking. These droplets are relatively heavy, do not go very far, and fall quickly to the ground. A person can contract COVID-19 by inhaling the droplets from a person infected with the virus.  This is why it is important to stay at least one meter away from others. These droplets can fall on objects and surfaces around the person, such as tables, knobs, and railings, so other people can become infected if they touch those objects or surfaces and then touch their eyes, nose, or mouth.
