我出门就戴口罩，我怕被人打死

Forget face masks and rubber gloves. The best way to avoid thecoronavirus is frequent hand washing, according to a medical adviser to the world's airlines.

The virus can't survive long on seats or armrests, so physical contact with another person carries the greatest risk of infection on a flight, said David Powell, a doctor and medical adviser to the International Air Transport Association (IATA). Masks and gloves do a better job of spreading bugs than stopping them, he said.
