In the wake of dreading Coronavirus, taking extra measures to sanitize things that come in your contact has become the new normal. Any laxity in this regard is like playing in the hands of the pandemic. According to a sensational study conducted by Australia’s national science agency CSIRO, the virus responsible for COVID-19 can survive up to 28 days on smooth surfaces such as glass found on phone screens and plastic banknotes at 20 degrees celsius. Alarmed by this grave report, I thought it’s apt to look for the best phone screen disinfectants and wipes which you can buy to prevent the pandemic.
A long time back, a study had found that a cell phone is 10 times dirtier than a toilet seat. That means you need to be more focused on disinfecting your phone than most other things in your life.
