Well, CDC doesn't believe surface transfer to be a significant factor soo.. There's that.

Asking in good faith (I believe you!) if you could dig out your source, I would find that interesting to read as well.

"as medical staff walk around the ward, the virus can be tracked all over the floor, as indicated by the 100% rate of positivity from the floor in the pharmacy, where there were no patients. Furthermore, half of the samples from the soles of the ICU medical staff shoes tested positive"

Other objects were not as high as I recalled, but computer mice in the ICU were 75%.
