Can the new coronavirus spread through building pipes? | Live Science
Two residents of a Hong Kong apartment building have fallen ill with the new coronavirus even though they live on different floors from each other, prompting concerns that the virus may spread through building pipes, according to news reports. But how exactly would the virus spread through pipes?
On Tuesday (Feb. 11), officials said they had evacuated and quarantined more than 100 residents of an apartment building in Hong Kong's Tsing Yi area after a 62-year-old woman became the second person in the building to catch the new viral disease, now called COVID-19 (short for coronavirus disease 2019). She lived 10 floors below the first infected resident, raising the question of whether the virus could spread through the building infrastructure, such as through a pipe, The New York Times reported. Officials also found an unsealed pipe in the woman's bathroom.
Officials are still investigating exactly how the virus may have transmitted between the two residents.
But there has been at least one instance of a coronavirus spreading through pipes.
In 2003, during the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS (which is also caused by a coronavirus) officials found that the virus was likely transmitted in a Hong Kong apartment tower called Amoy Gardens through faulty plumbing, according to the World Health Organization.
This happened because the SARS coronavirus could get into feces and thus into raw sewage. The pipes that carry raw sewage are "usually kept separate from people," said Dr. Amesh Adalja, an infectious-disease specialist and a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in Baltimore. But if there are leaks or breaches in the pipes, it could allow people to be exposed. For example a faulty piping system could allow the virus to become "aerosolized" out of a pipe and get into the surrounding air, Adalja said.
a possibility the article did not mention at all
tandaan niyo the virus is also present in feces
if you live in a building... toilet pipes taas hanggang baba
secondly, pinoys use tabo and bare hands
sana maayos ang pag hugas ng kamay
Go for broke na! Tuloy tuloy na lang. Ganun din pag nag ECQ ulit, susunod then pag lumuwag taas nanaman ulit.

Sana plastic na lang bills natin like Canada. Washable.
But China-WHO says the virus isn't airborne. 😛 And by your definition "multo" din yung aerosolized feces since malayo din naman sa tao.
My point is, sayang naman yung pagiingat na iba kung mahahawa ka din lang sa pagpabaya sa low risk transmission routes.
Di ba nagkaroon pa nga dati ng coronavirus challenge. Dinidilaan nila toilet seat. Champion sa Darwin awards.
Timely response by their government. Travel restrictions and lockdown kaagad to not allow the virus to spread.
Figures in the chart have to be balanced with the amount of testing done though. Aside from Singapore, Brunei, and to an extent Malaysia all the Southeast Asian countries have very low tests per population.

India
Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel is India’s largest hospital erected temporarily on the south Delhi premises of a religious organization with the capacity to house and treat 10,000 coronavirus patients at the same time.
PH should be doing this to avoid lockdown
you increase hospital capacity to a level where the curve cannot reach
