If need be, I'd be happy to clean surfaces using Marge's gin. No chance of me using my single malt whisky, though.

I just hope it doesn't return every winter, like the Flu does.

Re: Chinese Coronavirus
HiA lot of false information about on the Internet, including on here.
Some Basic Facts.
Alcohol Sanitisers only work when the alcohol content is a minimum of 70%.
Even then they only work if your hands are clean.
Baby Wipes do not work !00%, you have to factor in Contact Time.#
The same applies to Surface Wipes.
The Chemical Agent has to be in contact with the Virus for a minimum length of time to penetrate it and neutralise it.
There are 4 of us in the house at present, two of us travel and visit many places, two of us regularly visit Hospitals.
We take simple, basic precautions.
We have our own towels, washed separately.
We have bleach tablets, cheap as chips, used after every bath or shower.
We wash our hands and then use a Hydrogen Peroxide Solution and immerse our hands in it for 3 minutes.
I really am not fussed by this panic.
