Many EPA-registered disinfectants are listed for the virus, and soap and water break it down on hands. The right product depends on the surface. Always read the label for the germs covered and the time it must stay wet.
Alcohol-based products can inactivate the virus when the alcohol content is high enough and the surface stays wet long enough. Many professional crews use EPA-registered disinfectants because the label shows the proven contact time and surfaces it is safe for.
