A member asked:
Will truck drivers going between states be vectors of the novel coronavirus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only if infected: A driver might infect others if s/he does not wear a mask in public. They could leave virus at rest stops where food is handled, the gas pump, at locations where they stay or more likely - by coughing or sneezing on people that are in close proximity to them.
