To date, real-time polymerase chain reaction assays from the vesicular fluid of suspected SARS-CoV-2 vesicles have been unable to demonstrate viral RNA, but current data are limited to only four patients and the study notes a lack of assay standardization and a low viral load as possible sources of error. 9 Bearing this in mind, we recommend that patients who present with a possible viral exanthem related to the SARS-CoV-2 refrain from close contact with others, and in such circumstances the recommendation of sexual abstinence would be appropriate. Natural small molecules as inhibitors of coronavirus lipid-dependent attachment to host cells: a possible strategy for reducing SARS-COV-2 infectivity?
