If you took the time to read the articles I added in my previous post, you would have noticed that test were done to determine that the virus survived up to 9 hours on physical surfaces, like metal, plastic etc..

I always take my time to read stuff and I always try to understand what I'm reading.
I gave you a link, not from a newspaper but from NCBI and the text clearly says

These observations suggest that the transmission of the virus from donors who are shedding large amounts could occur for 2-8 hr via stainless steel surfaces and for a few minutes via paper tissues

There is a huge difference between steel and paper just as there is a big one between survivability and transmission.
Also there a big difference between transmission from fomites to humans and transmission between fomites.

Yes, I read every post I make and I see 1000's of people dying of this virus and I want to see that Bitcoin can be used to make a difference.

Sorry, but to me, you sound like those people wouldn't have died if they have used bitcoin!
Are you seriously claiming this?
Do we really have to piggyback on every disaster or crisis, from a nuclear war scenario to an epidemic to show how bitcoin can save the world?
I'm starting to see bitcoiners are enjoying those lately.

Let me ask you this then:
Would you support a government ban on cash payments if they would use the disease spreading as an excuse?  Wink
