Definition from
Kaiser Family Foundation:
An inanimate object that can be the vehicle for transmission of an infectious agent (e.g., bedding, towels, or surgical instruments). There is evidence that coronavirus spreads via fomites although, this is a less common route of transmission.
Example sentences:
Most ominously, the authors found a number of similarities in aerosol and fomite transmission between this virus and SARS-CoV-1. (MedPage Today)
Our results indicate that aerosol and fomite transmission of HCoV-19 is plausible, as the virus can remain viable in aerosols for multiple hours. (FOX 10 Phoenix)
However, dogs and cats can potentially be fomites for the virus. What on Earth is a fomite? A fomite is an object that can transport or carry disease. (Alaska Highway News)

kontaminovaný predmet
Definition from
Regional Public Health Authority:
Osemdesiat percent ľudí vírus napadne potom, čo siahli na kontaminované predmety – kľučky, madla, nákupné košíky – a potom si neumyli ruky, alebo si ich len ľahko opláchli.
Example sentences:
Okrem drobných kvapôčok vo vzduchu sa totiž vírusy prenášajú aj cez kontaminované predmety. (Daily SME)
„Výsledky prinášajú kľúčové informácie o stabilite SARS-CoV-2, ktorý spôsobuje COVID-19 a naznačujú, že ľudia sa môžu vírusom nakaziť zo vzduchu a po siahnutí na kontaminované predmety,“ komentuje štúdiu na svojom webe NIH. (startitup.sk)

Fomit
Definition from
Sk.mort:
Kľúčový rozdiel medzi fomitom a vektorom spočíva v tom, že fomit je neživý objekt, ktorý môže šíriť infekčné agens, zatiaľ čo vektor je živý organizmus, ktorý šíri chorobu.
Example sentences:
Nepriamy prenos kontaktov zahŕňa fomity; objekt, ktorý sa kontaminuje dotykom (fomit), potom infikuje dotykom. (New medic)
Peer comment(s):
| disagree |
František Tomášik
: Sú vlasy alebo koža neživé predmety? Fomit je kontaminovaný predmet, kontaminovaná vec.
