That’s just the good, healthy vomit. This is devil-barf, vile, nasty, and poisonous.

There’s very little info around on disinfection and cleanup techniques. Does bleach work? How long do the viruses live outside of a body?

They spray bleach on everything in Africa for disinfection - WHO guidelines:

“For environmental decontamination . . . the WHO recommends using chlorine solutions for cleaning up spills of blood or body fluids by flooding the area with a 1:10 dilution of 5.25% household bleach for 10 minutes for surfaces that can tolerate stronger bleach solutions (such as cement, metal).

“For surfaces that may corrode or discolour, the WHO recommends careful cleaning to remove visible stains followed by contact with a 1:100 dilution of 5.25% household bleach for more than 10 minutes.”

***************************

Caught a glimpse of a story (didn’t see the first part) about the ambulance that transported this guy being disinfected - I think they used bleach, then put in an Ozone unit for 6 hours or something like that.

When the first American doctor was brought back for treatment, I looked up how long the virus can live outside the body, and at that time I read up to 8 days. Now when I try to find the info, it says 2 hours to 2 days. Maybe that is in a well controlled laboratory setting? I’m just not sure, but I’d try to disinfect as much as I could.
