I asked this question on another post several days ago.

Does anyone know if any tests have been carried out on how long the virus can live on surfaces (non-human/non-animal)?. I saw it mentioned that it can die after 72 days.

Yes. I have seen figures- a day or two on card/paper, a bit longer on shiny surfaces. I'm not sure about clothes

Well that's good I suppose. I've been wearing clothes once and putting them in wash.
Does this help (although nothing is guaranteed as the facts)
