[2020年4月15日1時47分]
米ＣＤＣが、「医療従事者の靴底が新型コロナウイルスを運ぶかもしれない」というリポートを発表した。
中国・武漢の病院内で空気や物の表面を調べた結果、集中治療室で働く医療従事者の靴底からのサンプルのうち、半分が陽性だった。
また医療従事者だけが出入りする薬局の床は､陽性率が100％だったという。
リポートは医療従事者に、感染患者の病棟を出る時に、靴底を消毒することを強く勧めている。

Shoes Can Carry the Coronavirus, According to the CDC
In a new study published in one of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s journals, Emerging Infectious Diseases,
researchers tested air and surface samples at a hospital in Wuhan, China, where the coronavirus outbreak initiated.
The researchers found that about half of health-care professionals working in intensive care units carried the coronavirus on the soles of their shoes.
Further, the report showed that there was a 100% positive rate from the floor of the pharmacy, where only health-care workers traveled, not infected patients.

CDC: Coronavirus could possibly spread from soles of shoes
According to a report done by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the coronavirus might be spread by the soles of shoes worn by medical workers.
A report
published in the federal agency’s Emerging Infectious Diseases journal
stated that samples from the soles of staff taken at Huoshenshan Hospital in Wuhan showed that the virus could be spread on shoes.
“Furthermore, half of the samples from the soles of the ICU medical staff shoes tested positive,”
the CDC said.
“Therefore, the soles of medical staff shoes might function as carriers.
The three-week positive results from the floor of dressing room four might also arise from these carriers.”
The CDC stated that they highly recommend that soles be disinfected before walking out of wards containing
COVID-19 patients.
