User ID: 77805680 United States 02/14/2020 03:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Are your Preps Contaminated? So, the current concensus appears to be that the virus can survive 9 days on a hard surface but usually dies in 4 or 5 days. The virus also appears to prefer cool humid environments. That being said, is anyone disinfecting everything you bring into your home? Groceries, packages, etc. Can you safely disinfect produce? Are you leaving your shoes at the door and shedding garments, bathing after excursions into the public? Lots of people in the grocery store. Lots of hands on your stuff before you get it home. The checking conveyor and cashier alone look like a concern. Much less the general population, who can easily be minimized by going at odd hours. I have not seen this subject discussed much here. What say you? Bleach: 1 cup to 1 gallon water or 3 tablespoons to a quart. Lysol. Consumer Grade Hydrogen Peroxide. Alcohol. Remember, it's not Paranoia if they really are trying to kill you...😱 Pragmatist |

Personally I would like to limit exposure, none the less. Viral load and cross contamination are factors. I am avoiding crowds, but not bugging in yet. Pragmatist |
