Right, but NYC was hit hard relatively early on, and at the time there was a great deal of fear and uncertainty, especially because of the perception that the administration at the time had indicated it’s general hostility toward people in “blue” cities. People didn’t have the time or perhaps the perspective to step back and read whatever pre prints may have been available.

I appreciate your empathy here.

This advisory wasn't even available in March or April of 2020: there was nothing. The URL has only existed since April of 2021.

It says updated Apr 2021. I certainly recall reading that COVID transmission via surfaces was minimal sometime in 2020, earlier rather than later.

During the major outbreak in NYC from March - May we were actively told to wipe down surfaces.
