How has the virus affected you directly?
- Thread starter Beer
- Start date
Yeah that should be fine I think as long as you haven't worn them outside.

Most here know I have a **** ton of kids. They all participate in sports. Spring is usually our busiest time of year. My 15 year old daughter plays club level soccer. Postponed indefinitely as of now. My 12 year old son plays comp level baseball. His team was supposed to play in two leagues this year. As of now, best case scenario we’re pushed back a month. His team was supposed to go on a once in a lifetime trip to Cooperstown, NY this summer. Cancelled. It’s literally the only year you’re allowed to go as they only have 12U teams. My 9 year old girl is on a dance team. No practices. Who knows what will happen with future scheduled competitions. She also does rec soccer. Postponed indefinitely for now. My 8 year old and 5 year old sons both play little league baseball. At best, pushed back a month. My 3 year old daughter dances at the same place as her sister.
We never thought we’d miss all the craziness from having so many kids playing at the same time. We miss it bad right now.

So I've scattered a few copper lugs around the house and in the cars. One is in my hand when I'm out of the house. Copper does kill virusues on contact over a period of time. Not sure how effective it is at making a difference but copper has been used in medical applications for thousands of years. Door handles and and other fixtures where common in hospitals until stainless steel and cheaper plastics fazed out it's use. Any opinions?
Copper can be effective against certain parasites and bacterium but I don't think it will do **** against viruses. Plus, it has to be in solution and spayed on a surface or actually touch the organism you want to eradicate. Just carrying it around will likely do nothing. I hear that drinking Windex is highly effective. Saw it in a movie once.

Why don't you think solid copper kills viruses on contact?

Don't sniff that Windex bud.
What do you think scattered copper is going to do? It's not like the virus is a bunch of microscopic vampires.So I've scattered a few copper lugs around the house and in the cars.

I spread them around to have easy access to play with in the hand. Perhaps it kills this virus that is in contact with my hand before I transfer it to other surfaces or internally to myself. Like a hand sanitizer more or less.
Ahh, okay. I was picturing them being spread around like a magical barrier.
Now is a good time to get copper IUDs placed in one’s nasopharynx. With many OBGyn clinics not doing routine visits, now is a good time to get in and get necessary prophylaxis as well as support your local economy.

Haha in all seriousness I do wonder how effective copper is on contact in killing the virus. And if copper rich diets of leafy greens, liver, chocolate etc would have any effect at all.
