More alarming for you guys...I know someone who (although never tested) suspects he picked up corona in Portugal or in the plane home in January.
Soap and water....A doctor told me the virus has a lipid (fat) exterior, so washing with soap breaks this exterior and kills the virus, simple but more effective than some disinfectants .
Absolutely - the virus is weak, but protected by its fatty layer, therefore you do not need some super-killer for the virus, but something to break down its protection - soap.
