Was at the bank today and saw some of the cashiers putting on gloves. It then struck me that since the virus is transmitted through direct contact with a sick person, what if a sick person handles money and that same money is circulated, is it possible for someone else to get infected by touching the infected money? If its possible then I guess its high time to activate glove mode.

Nope.

Yes, but it is very rare.

I thought as much. But does it mean the virus can't survive outside its host for long?
