      PikamonMaster i’m from a previous socialist country and during socialism everyone was taken care of, everyone had a job and a place to live, when you didn’t work because of laziness you went to jail not receiving welfare cheques like now in capitalism
      people didn’t envy each other because the gap between rich and poor was smaller than now during capitalism, and because there were fewer variety of clothes and furniture so everyone’s home looked pretty much the same
      and people were more eager to help each other, unlike now during capitalism

      @@FruityHachi I'm not saying socialism is bad. Capitalism and socialism each have their own pros and cons, but Americans are extremely anti-socialism even though our own government practices it willfully when a corporation or big-wig needs a bailout. It's disgusting.
      Late capitalism is what we're seeing now in the United States and that's not good at all for anyone but the rich.

Luckily we also stocked up on concentrated Odoban late last year...so guess we’ll have a backup disinfectant once the bleach runs out...

    • @dingomatic
      @dingomatic 4 года назад +19

      Bothered me too. Going by his methodology-and also taking into consideration that plastic can hold the virus at least 72hrs-the first step he should have shown was to disinfect the plastic bags prior to handling the groceries within. At least wipe the entire handle and surrounding surface area as that will prevent unnecessary cross-contamination between bag and contents. This applies because the virus is yet only transmitted via droplets and thankfully not via aerosol; if the latter, then this video would require an update down the road.
      Also, he showed a good technique with the bread bag where he ripped the plastic midway down the wrap. It would have been great if he verbalized why that was important-because heuristically, people are likely to have touched the normal packaging opening (area above the tie) during stocking and surveying.
      I think these types of videos would serve s much more useful purpose if they explained the mindset component a bit more thoroughly and remained consistent with the logical framework.

      byeEYB Usually nurses and doctors will sanitize their hands-Before ever putting on gloves. One day I was at the hospital with my Mom and I was watching all the nurses and they would put on hand sanitizer and then put on their gloves...I was like thinking 🤔 why are they putting on hand sanitizer before putting the gloves on so I ask the nurses why and they said because something could be on their hands before putting gloves on. Hence why washing hands and then gloves ~ as for us washing hands always will help us greatly to protect us from getting anything like the coronavirus.

    Going to the grocery store is like playing laser tag. The shoppers just walk into my personal space, I dive into an empty aisle in order to keep 6’ of physical distance. Constantly diving into empty aisles is exhausting. People are not listening, they’re not paying attention to when they walk into someone’s space. I could not wait to get out of the store, I felt like I was putting myself and my family in harms way.

I pretty much do what the doctor has instructed. I'll even spray cereal boxes (the cereals are in air-tight containers.
      For grocery shopping use the store's plastic bags, place your hand inside to select your produce, then turn the bag down over your selected items. Been doing this way before this virus hoping it would catch on because I didn't like other people touching my food (even back then) - but nobody did. Perhaps they are now.

    • @meganepelletier853

      The point is really to limit the area that comes into contact with the bags or groceries. You can leave them in any spot where there is little traffic. Considering most people aren't going out a lot, leaving them in the entrance is probably safe enough. What you want is to avoid transferring things, touching them, having them come into contact with your countertops, putting your hands on the fridge handle, etc. You don't want to spread it to inanimate surfaces you would otherwise considering clean, because you risk touching that without taking any precautions. Otherwise you can sanitize everything as shown, just be mindful of where you put your hands and make sure to disinfect any surface that came into contact with the bags or the food.

    I would just leave my pantry stuff just inside my door for 3 days. I started wearing latex gloves under cotton gloves. As I walk into the store and grab a cart I soak/wet the cotton gloves top and bottom with bleach solution that I bring with me. That way when I touch something I know the bleach is killing the virus that is possibly on plastic and steel surfaces (which lasts 2-3 days). Before touching fruits and vegetables I put the plastic produce bag over my hand if I have to test for ripeness (I've always done this). Then just invert the bag over the fruit and tie it up. It's so disgusting watching people touch them with their bare hands! When I get home I change my cotton gloves and re-soak them with bleach and then clean my fridge items. It's a lot easier to disinfect items with cotton gloves on vs. a clorox wipe. Or you can bring them outside and spray them down with bleach solution and let them air dry. This saves on the clorox wipes and you can reuse the latex gloves because they are cleaned with bleach and then just wash the cotton gloves.
    I would NOT trust any fast food restaurant worker to wash their hands while preparing food. They may wear gloves but I've seen workers dump trash into the dumpster and go back to making food without changing the gloves. Places are still open for drive through and pick up but what if one of the staff is infected?

      They can cause cancer. You shouldn't ingest any of that.
      Also, I have a family friend who's daughter and wife came up as positive for Coronavirus, but he didn't, just because he washed his hands, refused to touch his face, and refused to kiss his wife and daughter. He always washed his hands after touching someone.
      His wife cooks all the food. She didn't know she was infected the entire time, so I'm pretty sure you're not going to get it from food.

      1. Very unlikely, if not impossible. The particles need to travel on or in something, like a water droplet, or maybe dust. Besides, the amount of virus particles you're exposed to matters a great deal. Being exposed to one or two might not result in infection.
      2. Any kind of detergent, including regular bar soap, will neutralise the virus. Hot water might speed this up, but the temperature doesn't really matter.

    With a lot of deer hunters, we have ozone generation systems that we put gear and clothing in to kill bacteria to remove scent, also works on viruses. Your thoughts on utilizing an ozone system in garage or porch to decontaminate stuff well packaged?
    Also, we have been taking shoes off at door so not to track possible virus we picked up on floor of store. These too can be decontaminated in ozone system. Commercial ozone generators run about $70 and can be rigged up to a plastic tote. Or could be ran in car. Do not run in house or risk lung and throat damage. Ozone will dissipate in a few minutes after turning off and areating. If decontaminating a room, a window needs opened, and all pets and people out of house for two hours while it runs. Doors and windows will need left open until ozone dissipates..

      Sharon Bryan aAgree about dirty bag from floor up onto “clean counter”, also contaminating his hands with box of cereal, just to touch the inside bag, instead of dropping it out, like onto a sterile field. I have been using bleach water in mister bottle to spray all over bags and inside. I let sit a bit, then begin diving deeper to either spray each item or use high pressure steamer. It’s faster and more thorough. Some I will also wipe, but initially all get a mist and sit before I even begin. I keep mister with bleach water at door for bottoms of shoes and they then Nn removed. I use hot steamer at my door as well. Spraying door handles, shoes, hands, switches, before going in and doing a proper hand wash.

      It's because the virus can survive in a person for as long as they can't fight it off. So imagine an infected person constantly touching everything on the ships. That's the reason why the ships stay positive for the virus so long. Someone has to be recontaminating the ship.

    Then again I am in Canada where quarantine and social distancing is a bigger thing than in the states. I do not go out to grocery shop as I am pregnant, but my husband does. They have handwashing stations at the entrances of the stores and employees at the front directing people to wash their hands before entering and before they leave. They also have cart wipes too for added protection
