No. Medicine spoon will not transmit covid. Get HPV, Flu and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

While studies indicate that usually only survive hours to a few days, why are you conducting this risky experiment? Wash utensils after use so they are clean for next time. If being used by someone who is ill, do not share them with others. If kept in a common area where Covid is known to be, keep covered or put away. Common sense wins the day. Be well.
