How does it spread?
Most respiratory viruses are most contagious when a person has symptoms. However, there is growing evidence to suggest that the virus might also spread during the incubation period, before a person develops any symptoms.
The incubation period is the time that elapses between the virus entering the body and symptoms developing. Experts consider this to be between 2 and 14 days for SARS-CoV-2.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggest that the virus spreads:
between people who are within 6 feet (2 meters) of each other
through respiratory droplets produced when a person with the infection coughs, sneezes, or talks
when these droplets land in the mouth or nose of a person who is nearby
It may also be possible for a person to contract SARS-CoV-2 by touching a surface that has contaminated droplets on it, then touching their mouth, nose, or eyes.
The WHO say that coronaviruses can remain active on certain surfaces for a few hours or several days. This varies with different conditions, such as the type of surface, the temperature, and the humidity.

So, as long as no one talks or touches any surfaces, it should be fine...
