Just like the normal flu this virus is spread via droplet. Think of it as "wet paint."
When someone infected sneezes, coughs, touches their ass, droplets or wet paint if you will comes out of them. Its on their hands, on their body. They touch things like door knobs, counters, handshaking, that wet paint gets on those items. Someone else like you comes along and touches it.. Now its on your hands. The wet paint is on you.
But the virus cant penetrate your skin. The only way you can get infected is if you somehow get that wet paint into your body. If that wet paint is on your hands and you wipe your eye for example thats one way. If you eat something and that wet paint gets on your food and you ingest it, you will get it. The virus has to get into your body somehow. Typically the eyes, nose, mouth, anus, or cracks-broken open wounds on the skin are how. The Virus has to find a way into your body. Most the time it is you infecting yourself with your very own dirty hands.
Yes, If you have close contact with someone who is infected and they sneeze into the air or on you can get it if the droplets get into your system. Or they cough direct on your face. Remember its a droplet. Invisible wet paint and its everywhere. But its generally you the individual that is the vector that gets it into your body. Usually by not washing your hands and somehow getting the droplets into your body.
Again simple handwashing can eliminate anything from the common cold, flu, N1H1, and many other sick shit from spreading.
Keep that in mind.
