Last Wednesday, popular rental company Rent The Runway sent out an email sharing what they know so far about the virus and how they are working to combat it. The email starts out with a matter-of-fact statement from Harvard Health which reads, “There is currently no evidence that COVID-19 can be transmitted from soft surfaces like fabric or carpet to humans.” It goes on to explain that the cleaning products and practices used at RTR are “designed to kill” the common cold and flu, giving the company no reason to believe that they won’t do the same for this particular strain.
