Saltwater as a Disinfectant and Cleaning agent for Environmental Surfaces in the context of SARS-COV-II.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the transmission of SARS-COV-II occurs mostly person-to-person via respiratory droplets within a range of 180 cm. The virus can also be transmitted if a person touches a mucosal surface after touching an object with the virus on it.14 Human-to-human transmission of the Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-II) occurs most often when people are in the incubation stage of the disease or are carriers and have no symptoms. [...]the role of environmental factors and conditions such as temperature, humidity, wind speed as well as food, water and sewage, air, insects, inanimate surfaces, and hands in COVID-19 transmission. [...]SARS-COV-II transmission through food, food packages, and food handlers has not been identified as a risk factor for the disease.15 Transmission may also occur through fomites in the immediate environment around the infected person. [...]the transmission of the COVID-19 virus can occur by direct contact with infected people and indirect contact with surfaces in the immediate environment or with objects used on the infected person like a stethoscope or thermometer.16 Consumption of alcohol will not kill the virus in the inhaled air;it will not disinfect your mouth and throat, and it will not give you any kind of protection against COVID-19.17 1.2 Introduction of Disinfectant and Sanitizer: Germ-killing products are used in foodservice and health care. Disinfectants kill 100% of certain microorganisms, but they are not used on people, only inanimate surfaces. Because disinfectants do not kill all microorganisms, especially bacterial spores, they are different from sterilants.18 1.2.2 Sanitizer: An agent that reduces the number of disease-causing (pathogenic) bacteria on an inanimate food contact surface to safe levels as judged by public health requirements.
