Had that been demonstrated in the very beginning?

Nope. Quite the opposite actually. I read at the beginning of the pandemic that they found covid on a book 9 days after exposure, and that was it for me. Since the eye was also a transmission vector I figured it would be best to be safe and sanitize everything. I was worried about getting it on my hands, rubbing my eyes, and getting infected. That turned out to be really low risk, but I like no risk a lot more than low risk.
