Be Sure To Clean Your Phone During The COVID-19 Pandemic
Of course we are all hopefully aware of the important things to do during the Coronavirus pandemic to help protect ourselves and others. From The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:
- Clean your hands often.
- Avoid close contact.
- Cover your mouth and nose with a cloth face cover when around others.
- Cover coughs and sneezes.
- Clean and disinfect.
And when it comes to cleaning and disinfecting, have you given any thought to your phone? According to healthline.com, the average person touches their phone over 2,600 times a day. So, given the possibility of one accidentally contaminating their phone by touching it with their hands that have been exposed to COVID-19, or by merely sitting your phone on an infected surface, it would be well advised to clean your phone. Their website has lots of good info on how to clean your phone and what products to use.
Get more information here from The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website and also here from healthline.com.
