Case Analysis of Intercultural Communication from the Perspective of My Major...
This document discusses a case of culture shock from the perspective of a civil engineering major. It identifies the main misunderstandings as the language barrier, differences in workload and working hours, and unfamiliar working methods. These misunderstandings arose because of an inability to communicate effectively in a new language and adjust to differences in work culture and expectations. Potential solutions include adapting to local ways of working, being open-minded and willing to interact with those from different cultures, and developing intercultural communication skills.
Foreing Policy Draft 1
This document provides guidance on developing a foreign policy for a Model UN conference. It explains that a foreign policy incorporates a country's goals and objectives in interacting internationally. A country's foreign policy is influenced by both global factors outside its control and domestic circumstances.
The document outlines several steps to prepare a foreign policy, beginning with creating a delegation profile describing a country's history, geography, demographics, politics, military, economy, and international relations. Delegates then analyze their country's position on the conference topics of internet freedom and contemporary forms of slavery. Finally, delegates develop a strategy to achieve their goals through research, understanding other countries' positions, building alliances, and creative negotiation. The overall aim is for delegates

Negotiation in a foreign language vde
The document discusses whether a foreign language is the main issue when negotiating internationally. It argues that while language can present challenges, cultural differences are generally more significant barriers than linguistic ones. Successful negotiators focus on negotiation skills like understanding interests, building trust, and bridging differences rather than getting lost in language issues. Experts recommend doing cultural research, showing respect, finding common ground, and seeing how your own culture appears to others. While language requires patience and clarity, the core negotiation process remains similar regardless of setting or participants. Cultural awareness and skill are more important than fluency alone in reaching agreements across borders.
Cultural Diversity in International NegotiationCultural dive.docx
Cultural Diversity in International Negotiation
Cultural diversity can create challenging circumstances for international negotiators. Not only is it important to understand specific cultural factors that differ among delegations, but it is also important to evaluate how the factors of one culture interact with the factors of the other.
For the
first paragraph
of your posting, discuss the advantages and dangers of creativity in the international negotiation process.
For the
second paragraph
of your posting, select any
one
of the following bullet points and address all elements of your chosen bullet point. Select a different bullet point section than what your classmates have already posted so that we can engage several discussions on relevant topics. If all the bullet points have been addressed, then you may begin to re-use the bullet points with the expectation that varied responses continue.
Ethical issues may arise in the areas of information sharing and information technology (IT) investments. What are some examples of such ethical issues? How can effective international negotiators address them?
Ethical issues of third-world nations may involve a total absence of infrastructure and quality-of-life support mechanisms. Can you think of ways these issues can cause ethical dilemmas in the negotiation process? How can you develop effective strategies to overcome ethical issues of third-world nations?
Compare and contrast hierarchical versus egalitarian cultures. How will such differences impact international negotiations? How should negotiators address such differences?
Compare Hofstede's dimensions of culture with the GLOBE study dimensions of culture. How are they similar? Different? What are the implications for negotiators and leaders?
Assess negotiation styles and their cultural impact, including goals, attitudes, personal styles, communication, time sensitivity, emotionalism, forms of agreement, team organization, and risk taking.
The
final paragraph
(three or four sentences) of your initial post should summarize the one or two key points that you are making in your initial response.

Essay On Any Topic Related To Mechanical
Migraines are considered a neurovascular disorder involving the trigeminovascular system, a nerve bundle responsible for facial sensations. The pathophysiology of migraines is not fully understood but involves changes in brain neurotransmitters that lead to dilation of blood vessels in the brain. Effective treatment of migraines requires an understanding of triggers and use of pharmacological interventions like triptans, as well as non-pharmacological approaches like relaxation techniques and biofeedback.
Why study intercultural communication ?
The document discusses 6 reasons for studying intercultural communication:
1. The self-awareness imperative - it increases awareness of one's own culture and reduces ethnocentrism.
2. The demographic imperative - the US population is becoming more diverse racially and ethnically.
3. The economic imperative - globalization means many products are made internationally so understanding different business cultures is important for economic success.
4. The technological imperative - technology increases contact with different cultures but also risks increasing divides between those who do and do not have access.
5. The peace imperative - understanding between cultures can help reduce conflict and tensions.
6. The ethical imperative - it is important to understand different cultural approaches
English communication and Writing skills
This document discusses various barriers to communication and effective presentation skills. It identifies 4 main categories of communication barriers - linguistic barriers due to issues with common language, vague words, pronunciation differences, and lack of clarity. Physical barriers include noise, distance, time differences, and faulty technology. Psychological barriers are prejudice, attitudes, closed mindsets, and emotions. Social barriers involve community conflicts, relationships, age/gender, and organizational issues. Cross-cultural barriers arise from differences in norms, customs, values, and religions across cultures. The document also provides tips for effective presentations, including understanding your purpose and audience, collecting relevant information, selecting an appropriate medium like PowerPoint, and preparing cue cards or slides divided into sections like introduction, materials
English Communication and Writing Skills II

Cross-Cultural Communication
Culture is a shared set of beliefs and experiences common to people in a specific
setting. The setting that creates a culture can be geographic, religious, or
professional. As you might guess, the same individual can be a member of many
cultures, all of which may play a part in the interpretation of certain words.
The different and often “multicultural” identity of individuals in the same
organization can lead to some unexpected and potentially large
miscommunications. For example, during the Cold War, Soviet leader Nikita
Khruschev told the American delegation at the United Nations, “We will bury you!”
His words were interpreted as a threat of nuclear annihilation. However, a more
accurate reading of Khruschev’s words would have been, “We will overtake you!”
meaning economic superiority. The words, as well as the fear and suspicion that the
West had of the Soviet Union at the time, led to the more alarmist and sinister
interpretation.Garner, E. (2007, December 3). Seven barriers to great
communication. Retrieved July 2, 2008, from Hodu.com: http://www.hodu.com/
barriers.shtml.
Miscommunications can arise between individuals of the same culture as well.
Many words in the English language mean different things to different people.
Words can be misunderstood if the sender and receiver do not share common
experiences. A sender’s words cannot communicate the desired meaning if the
receiver has not had some experience with the objects or concepts the words
describe.Effective communication. (2004, May 31). Retrieved July 2, 2008, from
DynamicFlight.com: http://www.dynamicflight.com/avcfibook/communication.
It is particularly important to keep this fact in mind when you are communicating
with individuals who may not speak English as a first language. For example, when
speaking with nonnative English-speaking colleagues, avoid “isn’t it?” questions.
This sentence construction does not exist in many other languages and can be
confusing for nonnative English speakers. For example, to the question, “You are
coming, aren’t you?” they may answer, “Yes” (I am coming) or “No” (I am coming),
depending on how they interpret the question.Lifland, S. (2006). Multicultural

Communication takes on special importance in international managemen.docx
Communication takes on special importance in international management. How organizations communicate across cultural boundaries defines their success and failures as an MNC. Communication is the transfer of meaning from a sender to a receiver. The challenge is to effectively communicate so the receiver can properly interpret the intended meaning of the message. Global leaders understand that language is not just about communication between individuals but is the very reflection of the culture in which the organization operates.

Negotiation in a foreign language vde
The document discusses whether a foreign language is the main issue when negotiating internationally. It argues that while language can present challenges, cultural differences are generally more significant barriers than linguistic ones. Successful negotiators focus on negotiation skills like understanding interests, building trust, and bridging differences rather than getting lost in language issues. Experts recommend doing cultural research, showing respect, finding common ground, and seeing how your own culture appears to others. While language requires patience and clarity, the core negotiation process remains similar regardless of setting or participants. Cultural awareness and skill are more important than fluency alone in reaching agreements across borders.

Migraines are considered a neurovascular disorder involving the trigeminovascular system, a nerve bundle responsible for facial sensations. The pathophysiology of migraines is not fully understood but involves changes in brain neurotransmitters that lead to dilation of blood vessels in the brain. Effective treatment of migraines requires an understanding of triggers and use of pharmacological interventions like triptans, as well as non-pharmacological approaches like relaxation techniques and biofeedback.
Why study intercultural communication ?
The document discusses 6 reasons for studying intercultural communication:
1. The self-awareness imperative - it increases awareness of one's own culture and reduces ethnocentrism.
2. The demographic imperative - the US population is becoming more diverse racially and ethnically.
3. The economic imperative - globalization means many products are made internationally so understanding different business cultures is important for economic success.
4. The technological imperative - technology increases contact with different cultures but also risks increasing divides between those who do and do not have access.
5. The peace imperative - understanding between cultures can help reduce conflict and tensions.
6. The ethical imperative - it is important to understand different cultural approaches

Cross-Cultural Communication
Culture is a shared set of beliefs and experiences common to people in a specific
setting. The setting that creates a culture can be geographic, religious, or
professional. As you might guess, the same individual can be a member of many
cultures, all of which may play a part in the interpretation of certain words.
The different and often “multicultural” identity of individuals in the same
organization can lead to some unexpected and potentially large
miscommunications. For example, during the Cold War, Soviet leader Nikita
Khruschev told the American delegation at the United Nations, “We will bury you!”
His words were interpreted as a threat of nuclear annihilation. However, a more
accurate reading of Khruschev’s words would have been, “We will overtake you!”
meaning economic superiority. The words, as well as the fear and suspicion that the
West had of the Soviet Union at the time, led to the more alarmist and sinister
interpretation.Garner, E. (2007, December 3). Seven barriers to great
communication. Retrieved July 2, 2008, from Hodu.com: http://www.hodu.com/
barriers.shtml.
Miscommunications can arise between individuals of the same culture as well.
Many words in the English language mean different things to different people.
Words can be misunderstood if the sender and receiver do not share common
experiences. A sender’s words cannot communicate the desired meaning if the
receiver has not had some experience with the objects or concepts the words
describe.Effective communication. (2004, May 31). Retrieved July 2, 2008, from
DynamicFlight.com: http://www.dynamicflight.com/avcfibook/communication.
It is particularly important to keep this fact in mind when you are communicating
with individuals who may not speak English as a first language. For example, when
speaking with nonnative English-speaking colleagues, avoid “isn’t it?” questions.
This sentence construction does not exist in many other languages and can be
confusing for nonnative English speakers. For example, to the question, “You are
coming, aren’t you?” they may answer, “Yes” (I am coming) or “No” (I am coming),
depending on how they interpret the question.Lifland, S. (2006). Multicultural

The first regulation in dealing with the hemp in German is the lic.docx
The first regulation in dealing with the hemp in German is the license acquisition for compliance with the Single Convention on Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs of the United Nations. This qualifies the company or individuals to be able to produce or sell prohibited cannabis for medical services. Being part of the United Nations, German had to implement the Berlin treaty, which required licensure of all companies that deal with cannabis importation to German, especially Canadian companies which consists the major European medical cannabis market (Warf, 2014).
In addition, cannabis trading is considered a pharmaceutical market product in Europe. By this fact, therefore, all products must fully meet the GMP or ISO certification and European Union certification in both countries, which means that certificates have to be acquired from the country of origin. Countries that are outside the European Union and are already doing the product, they have to get GMP compliant certification which is needed for importation. Even when the company dealing with the product has acquired this certification, they yet again have to get a license from the country which is being traded. This requirement is a huge setback to companies from the United States due to federal policy restrictions (Duvall, 2016).
Moreover, dealers in the hump import to Germany face the challenge of the multi-billion dollar cap. This is another form of regulation in German in which the product has to be sold to the pharmaceutical wholesalers, instead of being sold directly to the dispensaries, as it is in other countries. This aspect is made to increase the competition index among the distributors the only a few of them that will comply with the requirements will be better placed in carrying out the business. Another implication of the regulation is that huge capital input is required so that the required quantity for meeting the wholesaler demand is necessary. Therefore, this regulation automatically puts a baseline for the small scale cannabis dealers and gives large companies an early advantage (Warf, 2014).
Again, in Germany, there are high import taxes for certain products. The level of the tax that is set for the hump imports is enshrined by the 2016 cap that provided the tariffs at 4.2% for imports that are from the European Union block. However, this rate is quite high for non-EU imports which put it at 19%. The high tariffs are a challenge to the importation of hub (Duvall, 2016).

The following just needs a reply 250 words pls
I have chosen the Patriot Academy to discuss today. Patriot Academy was founded by an attorney by the name of Rick Green. The first Patriot Academy was held in Texas in 2003 and has since grown exponentially. The purpose of this organization is to equip the new and upcoming generation of leaders to champion the cause of freedom and truth in government, media, entertainment and education (Patriot Academy, 2020). It is helping our future leaders be equipped to bring our nation back to the principles it was founded on through specific strategies such as training, demonstrating, teaching and inspiring. This has a huge impact on our culture, in a positive way. In a previous assignment I stated how important it is for the coming generations to preserve what our constitution stands for. And this organization is doing just that. President Ronald Reagan famously said, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.” (Patriot Academy, 2020). The website says, “Unless we motivate and equip the rising generation to take up the torch of freedom and carry it forward, it will become extinguished forever.” (Patriot Academy, 2020). I’m not sure there is anything for scary than that happening. The more I am reading in this class and learning, I think it is important (now more than ever) for everyone, especially those in politics and government, to be well versed in the political process and culture, so we can protect our freedom. We are in desperate need of a generation who will stand up for that freedom and to lead America. I’m grateful for the leadership of Rick Green and him seeing this foundation as necessary. He saw that we had weaknesses, but that we have a standard to uphold and what a privilege that really is. Reading through the testimonials, one stuck out from David Barton. He stated that principled leaders are not born, they are trained. And that’s exactly what the Patriot Academy does. Trains future leaders to stand up for what is right and protect what is ours. The day we have self-sacrificing leaders in politics instead of self-righteous ones, will be a good day. I had no idea foundations like this existed, but I am thankful they do.

Live Action's mission is to create a culture of life and change hearts and minds on athe following just needs a bortion by creating and distributing compelling, multi-platform media content that will educate, inspire and activadiences around thorld.”
Live Action is a Pro life activist Group founded by Lila Rose. Abortion is a heated topic now, but Live action is Trying to bring light to the widespread misinformation on the truth about abortion. Often the information that’s being shared is biased towards the more “progressive” narrative that boasts abortion on demand and often denies a fetus’s humanity. They exposed a long-term pattern of abuse of the system. From underage abuse to sex trafficking victims having the evidence of the abuse covered up. They have shared video evidence of the illegal sharing of human fetal tissue. As well as helped get justice for trafficked victims. They have brought to the forefront of our media pages the truth on the risks of abortion as a procedure as well as the inhumanity of taking human life. Organizations such as planned parenthood often make claims to deny the life of the fetus or say its just a clump of cells, but live action has shown to a wide audience the reality of that innocent life.
The impact Live action has had on our society as a whole has been a larger percentage of students collage age and up have become more prolife and are starting to recognize the ramifications of abortion and the inhumane laws that are being passed in states such as New York that now allow termination up until birth.

The development of Public Hygiene stopped during feudalism and began to resurface with the Industrial Revolution (xviii) with Raus, Ramazini and, above all, Johan Peter Frank. The latter is considered the "Father of Public Health" and established the medical police. At that time is when the State, in order to conserve the productive forces, takes greater part in controlling water and cleaning, also adding some aspects of the way of life, such as control of food and occupational diseases (Bush, 2018).
The 19th century was one of great advances in medicine due to the appearance of medical equipment and the discoveries of bacteriology made by Pasteur in 1870 and Koch in 1882 (Bush, 2018). Together with the above and the appearance of social medicine, in the second half of this century, the development of public health is encouraged, expanding health measures by the States and beginning the development of health services, as happened in Russia in 1865 and in Germany in 1883 (Coovadia et al., 2009). In the first half of the 20th century, due to an awakening of interest in health, advances were made in this field and the ministries of public health emerged. In relation to the latter there is a historical fact of great importance when the first in the world was created in Cuba, as the Ministry of Health and Welfare, and later they emerged in Germany, England, France and others (Bush, 2018).
At this time authors such as Sigerist, Rosen, Lee and Jones stand out and one of the first definitions of public health emerges, at least one of the best known, made by the North American Winslow in 1920, which due to its importance is reproduced below:
"Public Health is the art of preventing diseases, prolonging life, promoting health and efficiency through the organized effort of the community for: environmental sanitation; Control of Communicable Diseases; education in personal Hygiene; organization of medical services and nursing for the early diagnosis and preventive treatment of diseases and the development of the social mechanism that ensures each one an adequate standard of living for the preservation of health; organizing these benefits so that each citizen is in conditions of their right natural to health and longevity” (Coovadia et al., 2009).
Prevention marks the beginning of a new stage after the first epidemiological revolution, which increases with the second epidemiological revolution. Thus, public health continues to expand its field and its functions and integrates preventive care for people and that of the natural environment, the social environment, and also aspects of curative care (Coovadia et al., 2009).
There is currently a broad consensus that public health has become an integrative .

Chapter 45
a. Because the symptomatology is consistent with the presentation of the virus and the odd are also in favor of this assumption being that “is responsible for the majority of nonbacterial food-borne epidemic gastroenteritis in all age groups” (Grossman & Porth, 2014, p.1190). This virus is characterized for nausea, vomiting, watery diarrhea and it solves within one to three days. Given that the scenario occurs in a cruise, it can come from contaminated food or water and from contaminated surfaces or direct contact with the emissions of contaminated patients; the fact that the patients are in such closed quarters makes for easier transmission.
b. Main concern with Norovirus is dehydration that results from the loss of fluids, given the age of the population, this concern is increased. The elderly population is particularly at risk for dehydration, hypovolemia and electrolyte imbalances that can result in arrhythmias. Rehydration must be addressed in order to avoid these complications. (Ignatavicius, Workman, Blair, Rebar, & Winkelman, 2016)

The following is a true story - and it made national headlines several years ago. A Houston Texans football player and his wife got the call from a hospital in Dallas that his wife's mother (the football player's mother in law) was dying and only had a few minutes left to live. They hopped in the car and sped toward the hospital around midnight. Not many cars were on the road. As they were approaching the hospital, they ran a couple of red lights to get them there faster. A police officer saw this, and pulled them over as they were pulling into the hospital. The couple seeing the lights called ahead to the hospital to have a nurse meet them to substantiate their story that their mother was dying and only had a few minutes left.

The following is a list of the major general ideas, ideals, and .docx
The following is a list of the major general ideas, ideals, and values of the Enlightenment
found in Voltaire’s
Candide
, published in 1759. They are concepts as the Enlightenment philosophes understood them.
1.
Freedom
: especially freedom of thought, necessary for autonomy (“freedom from external control or influence; independence”), as Kant indicated in his definition of Enlightenment;
2.
Humanism:
a concern for humanity, what is uniquely human, and for solving human problems;
3.
Cosmopolitanism:
familiarity with different cultures obtained through travel;
4.
Toleration;
the practice of tolerating people who differ from you in their opinions, practices, religions, etc.
5.
Secularism:
worldliness; removing religion from explanations about how the world or aspects of it work;
6.
Pagan self-reliance:
relying on yourself to solve problems, instead of praying to your god or the gods to help you;
7.
Empiricism:
strictly speaking, “the theory that all knowledge is derived from sense-experience”; but it can also mean, as Voltaire used it, learning from experience;
8. For
cultural relativism:
‘the idea that a person's beliefs, values, and practices should be understood based on that person's own culture, rather than be judged against the criteria of another”; in other words, it means being non-judgmental when one encounters people who display different practices or beliefs than those accepted as the norm in your culture; that is, you try to understand people who are different in terms of their culture, not yours. As such,
it is the opposite of ethnocentrism
, which constitutes being judgmental, as one evaluates “other cultures according to preconceptions originating in the standards and customs of one's own culture,” This can be a toughie, so here’s a clue from
Candide
: monkeys, and the difference between how Candide and Cacambo react when they see them.
9.
Realism:
“the attitude or practice of accepting a situation as it is and being prepared to deal with it accordingly.” Let’s see.
Candide
is subtitled
Optimism
, a stance that is represented by Pangloss; Martin, another character, is a pessimist in his outlook, the complete opposite of Pangloss. Which
three
characters represent realism?
Bonus: What is the meaning of the famous last line of
Candide
? “’All that is very well,’ answered Candide, ‘but let us cultivate our garden.’” What does Voltaire mean? Provide a brief explanation.
Your assignment is to find a scene or a theme in
Candide
that illustrates concepts one through nine and explain briefly how it does.

The following is a breakdown of the paper I need:
Focus of the Final Paper
The final assignment for the course is a Final Paper on two cases. The Final Paper should demonstrate understanding of the reading as well as the implications of new knowledge. The eight- to ten-page paper should integrate readings and course discussions into work and life experiences. It may include an explanation and examples from previous experiences as well as implications for future applications.
Read the case study at the end of Chapter 15 and the case study at the end of Chapter 16, and thoroughly answer all the following questions. Supplement your answers with scholarly research using the Ashford Online Library. Each case study should be addressed in four to five pages, resulting in a combined Final Paper of eight to ten pages.
Chapter 15 Case Study: The Realco Breadmaster
Develop a master production schedule for the breadmaker. What do the projected ending inventory and available-to-promise numbers look like? Has Realco “overpromised”? In your view, should Realco update either the forecast or the production numbers?
Comment on Jack’s approach to order promising. What are the advantages? The disadvantages? How would formal master scheduling improve this process? What organizational changes would be required?
Following up on Question 2, which do you think is worse, refusing a customer’s order upfront because you don’t have the units available or accepting the order and then failing to deliver? What are the implications for master scheduling?
Suppose Realco produces 20,000 breadmakers every week, rather than 40,000 every other week. According to the master schedule record, what impact would this have on average inventory levels?
Chapter 16 Case Study: A Bumpy Road for Toyota
Is Toyota’s focus on quality consistent with the Lean philosophy? Can a firm actually follow the Lean philosophy without having a strong quality focus? Explain.
Who are the “coordinators” referred to in the article? What role have they played in educating Toyota’s workforce in promoting the TPS (Toyota Production System) philosophy? Why are they so hard to replicate?
According to Hajime Oba, what is wrong with Detroit’s approach to Lean? Based on your understanding of American auto manufacturers, do you agree or disagree?
There is an old saying “Haste makes Waste.” How does this apply to what is happening in the Georgetown plant? What is Toyota doing about it?
Writing the Final Paper
The Final Paper:
Must be eight to ten double-spaced pages in length, in addition to the title page and reference page, and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
Must include a title page with the following:

The following information is available to reconcile Clark Company’s .docx
The following information is available to reconcile Clark Company’s book balance of cash with its bank statement cash balance as of July 31, 2011.
a.
On July 31, the company’s Cash account has a $26,193 debit balance, but its July bank statement shows a $28,020 cash balance.
b.
Check No. 3031 for $1,380 and Check No. 3040 for $552 were outstanding on the June 30 bank reconciliation. Check No. 3040 is listed with the July canceled checks, but Check No. 3031 is not. Also, Check No. 3065 for $336 and Check No. 3069 for $2,148, both written in July, are not among the canceled checks on the July 31 statement.
c.
In comparing the canceled checks on the bank statement with the entries in the accounting records, it is found that Check No. 3056 for July rent was correctly written and drawn for $1,250 but was erroneously entered in the accounting records as $1,230.
d.
A credit memorandum enclosed with the July bank statement indicates the bank collected $9,000 cash on a non-interest-bearing note for Clark, deducted a $45 collection fee, and credited the remainder to its account. Clark had not recorded this event before receiving the statement.
e.
A debit memorandum for $805 lists a $795 NSF check plus a $10 NSF charge. The check had been received from a customer, Jim Shaw. Clark has not yet recorded this check as NSF.
f.
Enclosed with the July statement is a $15 debit memorandum for bank services. It has not yet been recorded because no previous notification had been received.
g.
Clark’s July 31 daily cash receipts of $10,152 were placed in the bank’s night depository on that date, but do not appear on the July 31 bank statement.

How Is Coronavirus Spread? Here's What You Should (and Shouldn't)
Worry About
by Jessica Migala
With more than 46,000 confirmed cases of coronavirus in the United States (and more
than 392,000 cases worldwide), it's clear that the novel coronavirus (aka COVID-19), along with
the anxiety surrounding it, isn't going anywhere soon.
Because the virus is so new (it's technically called SARS-CoV-2, FYI), lots of the fear
surrounding COVID-19 stems from how little we know about it. Luckily, experts do know some
pretty important things about the virus' transmission, or how the coronavirus does—and
doesn't—spread.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, COVID-19 is mainly
spread from person-to-person, usually via close contact (within six feet). It can spread through
physical contact like handshaking if someone's hands are contaminated with the virus. And it can
also spread through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes
(again, that's why the six-feet rule is handy: those droplets can travel that far, and land on another
person's mouth or nose, and can even be inhaled).
The virus may also spread from person-to-person through surfaces that have been
touched by those infected. "A sneezing or coughing person will cover their mouth, get it all over
their hand, and then touch something that you then touch," Robert Murphy, MD, an infectious
disease expert at Northwestern University, tells health.com. “The virus can then gain entry into
your body when you touch your own face,” he adds. That’s precisely why experts can only
preach basic disease-prevention measures, like washing hands correctly (20 seconds with soap
and water) and regularly, wiping down common surfaces, and staying away from sick people.
Lastly, another possible way coronavirus can spread between people is via fecal
transmission. According to recent research from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and
Prevention (CCDC), those with confirmed cases of the novel coronavirus (aka, COVID-19) have
live virus in stool specimens, meaning there's a possible fecal-oral route for the virus, as well.
Unfortunately, the only way to truly know if someone has COVID-19 is to test them;
that's because the symptoms of the illness look extremely similar to that of the common cold or
flu: cough, fever, and body aches. It's also important to know that.
