found the article....one person had it , they passed the bag round , rest caught it. So they don't "breed" the germ as it could have been passed on via any item they all touched

No one mention plastic sheeting just "plastic & towels" so anyone's guess if it was plastic bags or sheeting.Everything has its beauty but not everyone sees it.0 -

Indeed.
However the the thing about reusable shopping bags spreading nanovirus is true. It was reported earlier this year, and relates to a study published in the Journal of Inectious Diseases, which sounds like a fairly reputable publication although I'm not personally familiar with it.
Of course the excitement was that it was the first-ever reported case of nanovirus transmission involving an inanimate object. So it's only happened the once. And the bag in question was left on the bathroom floor where a virus victim had been sick. So I wouldn't exactly put it in the top ten of 'things to worry about'.0
