By direct contact with a sick person who has a cold, or by touching things they have touched or drank from, etc., and by their respiratory droplets containing the virus particles that come out with coughs and sneezes. If you breathe this, the virus can enter your body. If you touch where the droplets land after they fall from the air, or if you breathe the droplet-containing air, you can become infected with the virus that causes colds. Once you have the virus on your hands, it is just a matter of a short time before most people have touched their own mucous tissue. It is then that the virus is able to attach to the cells in the mucous tissue and begin the process of reproduction called the Lytic Cycle. See the related question below for more detailed information about the Lytic Cycle of virus reproduction.
