Survival of this virus outside the body is very time limited.
Agreed, but that time can last, untouched, days. Hence why we need to do the frequent cleaning. I am not disagreeing that given our efforts that aerosol transmission is the most likely vector. However, the statement of yours about surface transmission did not include any concept of our currently efforts. Maybe it was assumed, but it read as if a general potential vector with no external factors, such as frequent cleaning. I was pointing out that surface transmission, at least on certain surfaces, is a high potential vector, sans interference such as cleaning, given the days long survival of the virus on them.
