I'm more concerned about getting it through person to person. Cases of contact with surfaces and then touching mouth or face are likely to cause minor infections because the viral load is so low. Sure I'll wash my hands after getting home if I go to grocery store or gas station but I'm not going to spray myself down with Lysol and hand sanitizer turning myself into a hyper OCD. Shit I was semi OCD before all this shit washing my hands more than most people and I'm not going to turn myself into even more. I'll wear my damn mask and sometimes use hand sanitizer at work and wash my hands every so often. Heck I touch my mask at work because im a human fucking being and I have this mask on that makes it even more itchy. I'm not going to wash my fucking hands every time I want to touch my mask or itch my face at work. We are required to wear gloves also.

This whole worrying about surfaces is fucking overblown.  It's people that aren't wearing masks that are talking, singing, dancing or otherwise just close to each other that are getting the most sick.  Viral loads from surfaces are the least of my concern.

This.

A elector a infected person used, may infect like 500 people at once in a few days.
However most of those will be light in virus loads, and likely give less horrible outcomes than ones where some bastard sneezes into your face.

Thats what kills, a strong cough into someones face, or a sneeze.
Here have a buttload of virus! free of charge.

There was that one bus driver, that complained about a woman caughing right into his face, he lateron got the virus and died.
People need to wear masks, and damn well do their best to caugh into elbows (or hell even their own hands, (better than into someones face)).
