Corona viruses on wooden surfaces – is there a risk?

The novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has never before been detected in humans in this form. In recent years, however, similar new viruses have already been discovered in
(SARS and MERS coronaviruses) as infectious agents in humans.

In summary, it can be stated that wooden surfaces are comparatively “virus-proof”. This is mainly due to the microstructure of the wood and the presence of
antimicrobial substances in the wood.
