Two big new findings.
Isolation (growth in cell culture) of SARS-CoV-2 from stool (weekly.chinacdc.cn/en/article/id/…) and from 2 asymptomatic people (nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…).
*Now* we have evidence for more COVID-19 transmission routes.
Unknown how much either route contributes to spread

The asymptomatic isolation were from throat swabs. The upper respiratory tract is considered an easier site to shed virus from via coughs and sneezes and spitting, than the lungs
Please not the correct link for the virus culture from stool article is weekly.chinacdc.cn/en/article/id/…
Apologies.
Apologies.
