摘要: We detected severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA on disposable wooden chopsticks used by 5 consecutive asymptomatic and postsymptomatic patients admitted for isolation care at our hospital. Although we did not assess virus viability, findings may suggest potential transmission through shared eating utensils.
