Covid-19 virus 'survives on some surfaces for 28 days'

Later it was found that the media overreacted, by obsessing over studies which were done under very specific lab conditions. From an artifical lab condition to a major headline. It was just so tempting by the editorial staff of these outlets, never letting a good crisis go to waste.
Just because it's the BBC it can't be guilty of clickbait?
I wonder why at this point no one is doing studies in animals to see whether these concentrations equate with infections.
The idea is hypothetical but they seem to believe it. There does seem to be a pathetic lack of interest in the virus itself, with so much focus on 2nd and 3rd order effects.
Media doesn't need to publish those because it's too hard to read and provides 0 value for an average person.
Meanwhile information how to prevent spread is obviously the utmost important.
That said, it is highly unlikely that it is a prominent way to get infected, assuming it occurs: with the numbers of positive people in the world, it would've become known by that.
