Germany: Where Exactly Do You Get Corona?

A study was completed by the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) on the topic of 'where' Germans get the virus.

Most people, before this was done....probably would have said via buses and trains. 

Deutsche Welle covered this story and gave a decent explanation.

The chief place where people got the disease or it was passed?  At home. 

In second place.....retirement homes.

Refugee centers and compounds?  They get into the mix as well.

Schools, hotels, offices, buses, airports, railway stations, trains, bars, restaurants, and pubs?  All far down on the list.

Shouldn't that reassure Germans?  Well...if you look at these places on the much-lesser list....they get cleaned often.  The retirement homes don't surprise me because of the lesser immune systems that you encounter there.
