Like other coronaviruses, this virus can be found in faeces. But COVID-19 spreads primarily through close contact with an infected person or the droplets released when they sneeze or cough. To protect yourself wash your hands regularly – especially before preparing food or eating, after coughing or sneezing, before and after using the toilet and after changing a child’s diaper.
