According to an investigation by Noah Schwartz at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Georgia, and his colleagues, the girl was exposed to SARS-CoV-2 in June. After a rapid test suggested that she was not infected, she joined 13 family members for an extended stay in a 5-bedroom house (N. G. Schwartz et al. Morb. Mortal. Wkly Rep. ; 2020). Family members neither wore masks nor maintained distance from each other.
The authors speculate that the virus gets a foothold in the nose, then sneaks down the respiratory tract when breathed into the airways. They say the results support the use of masks and preventative measures such as nasal cleansing.
In January, the authorities in Wuhan, where the coronavirus outbreak began, halted travel out of the city in an attempt to control the spread of the virus that causes COVID-19. But Hong Kong relied on a programme that included widespread testing, quarantining of those who had been in contact with infected people, and distancing measures such as school closures. When Peng Wu at the University of Hong Kong and her colleagues surveyed residents in early March, 99% said they wore a mask in public and 85% said they avoided crowds (B. J. Cowling et al. Lancet Public Health ; 2020).
