Episode 190: The Coronavirus/COVID - 19 How To Stay Safe: Phones

Is your awareness heightened because of COVID-19? Many of us have been protecting ourselves from all of you for a long time. One way I protect myself is I NEVER touch anyone else's phone. They are some of the dirtiest objects in our lives. They go pretty much everywhere with people and most folks never think about disinfecting them. While most phones are waterproof, I do not feel comfortable running mine under water to clean it. However, here are a couple of methods to get the germs off your devices. First, good old disinfecting wipes. These have been shown to be more than 80% effective against COVID-19. While you have a wet wipe, go ahead and wipe down other surfaces in your house that get lots of hand traffic like lights or doorknobs.
