In all seriousness fish, get good sleep, hydrate like crazy, take some vitamins (elderberry, zinc, etc.), eat well, and hold off on alcohol.
Every one of my children has had flu a over the last few weeks. I think my wife maybe got it (her temp went up to 100.0) but fought it off. I’d been taking vitamins fairly regularly (b complex with calcium and zinc, potassium, magnesium, iron, elderberry, and drinking 80+ ounces of water a day and started to feel like crap but never got a fever and seem to have avoided it.

It depends on the length of exposure. You need to have it on your hands for about a minute.

Ted Cruz will quarantine himself? Some good may come of this after all!
My understanding is that this virus has a protein shell that makes it harder for soap to kill. For bacteria and most viruses, I believe you are correct.

Interesting read
So rarely will a person confirm a lack of knowledge in so few words. Flu is not a coronavirus.

The only way to guard against this is to shut the country down for 2 - 3 weeks. Close schools, businesses, cancel travel, cancel events. Reduce public transportation to a minimum for emergencies. Call it a national holiday.
The problem continues to be that people are asymptomatic and are spreading the virus for 1 - 3 weeks before they know they have it. Tests are only being given to people with clear symptoms and other "risk factors" such as travel to infected areas or contact with another known case, but that won't work. So you either shut the country down like it's Christmas or you let it go and take it in the shorts.
Under these conditions, everything from going to the grocery store, to buying coffee at Starbucks, to going to work, or riding in an elevator, etc. puts a person at risk of exposure.
What's taking place now isn't solving anything, it's just documenting a small part of the problem reactively.

CDC and everything else I've read says hand washing is better, for covid 19 and everything else. Washing has an virus killing effect somewhat but the goal is to remove that **** from your skin, not kill it. Sanitizer tries to kill it but it doesn't kill anything close to what washing physically removers.
