Cory Chalmers’s cleaning team looks a lot like Stormtroopers out for a raid.
“We’ve got the white Tyvek suits, the full-face respirators,” Chalmer tells Popular Mechanics. And, of course, the pièce de résistance: electrostatic guns loaded with sodium troclosene, a disinfectant that, when dissolved in water, creates a fine mist of chlorine gas. The guns give the sodium troclosene particles a static charge that makes them cling to objects. When Chalmers and his gang of Galactic Empire cleaners want to disinfect something, all they have to do is point and shoot.
Chalmers, the president of biohazard and crime scene cleanup company Steri-Clean, Inc., has been busy this spring.

With all this hype, you would think we are sterilizing for ebola. This is crazy. Yes, I do clean things down more, however, I'm not going to drive myself crazy.

Just mobilize all the Army decon companies if it's that serious. Hint: It isn't. This is all hyped imagery abetted by state and local leaders and their public health commissars.

I know some people who are so paranoid about the virus, they'd burn down their house if they thought someone in the neighborhood had it.

Making money from a panic. They should be deployed to San Francisco and the FBI building in DC where there is a real need.

If you go to the CDC web site, you will find that the regular influenza season ended on April 4, 2020.
and for that 2019-2020 influenza season, an estimated 26,000 to 62,000- americans died of the flu.
since there are symptoms common to influenza and Kung Flu, I expect the CDC to shift death counts to Kung Flu.
but what I pointed out to you people way back in February, you should keep an eye out for regular flu deaths.
old, sick people die from Kung Flu. Old, sick people die from regular influenza.
What is wrong with the picture of governmental action with the two diseases?

The good news is that coronaviruses are some of the easiest types of viruses to kill with the appropriate product, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. “It has an envelope around it that allows it to merge with other cells to infect them,” Thomas says. “If you disrupt that coating, the virus can’t do its job.”
Just the friction from scrubbing with soap (any kind of soap) and water can break the coronavirus’s protective envelope. “Scrub like you’ve got sticky stuff on the surface and you really need to get it off,” says Richard Sachleben, an organic chemist and a member of the American Chemical Society.

My wife and I are the only people who have been in our house in two months now. We use alcohol on our hands when we go anyplace, before we touch our cars. The cars and house stay Wuhan free because of that protocol, so other than a backup hand washing everytimg we get home, nothing else is different for us.
The virus is "out there" and we keep it at bay carefully, relax in home and cars.

I have no problems with the implementation of good hygiene practices. None whatsoever. It is just basic commonsense to practice. But thanks to the two globalist ghouls who have been exposed as being affiliated with the Clintons, Gates and other America haters, it has been taken to a whole new level. Fauci and Birx just need to stand aside and go away. Fauci has proven yet again he couldn't organize a one float parade. Wonder how many people realize he was one of the so-called 'experts' who helped mess up the handling of the outbreak of AIDS all those decades ago?

The virus isn't radioactive. Though some people apparently think it is.

Interesting article, especially the link to "List N" of products known to destroy the virus.
Personally, I'm going to be "bubble boy" for the next two months, except for daily visits to the hospital where I'm on a course of treatment essential to my well-being. Breaking therapy now would be seriously bad news for me. I'm more afraid of quarantine than battling the flu. So I hope these deep cleaning guys know their business!
By the way, the first part of the article talks about ATP detection to test for sanitation, but I doubt that you can detect viruses that way, since don't have a metabolism.
