Appreciate if you could advise your numerous callers who keep citing #Lysol that it's an anti-bacterial (not antiviral): unless it's the Lysol "Power and Free" line, the active ingredient of which is hydrogen peroxide.

That's why your lady emergency doctor suggested "bleach" to a question citing #lysol because 10% Chlorox (bleach) is known to kill all the known germs, including viruses. In fact 10% Chlorox/Bleach was used to disinfect virus contaminated glassware in a Virology Laboratory..
.. before plastic replaced glassware in a Virology/Tissue Culture Laboratory and are autoclaved to "kill" the contaminating virus BEFORE disposal.

Similarly, if you could also advise your global audience that #dettol is anti-bacterial, not an antiviral! 🤭 Unfortunately, I've observed companies manufacturing/selling disinfectants take advantage of an outbreak to promote their products..

..as killing 99.9% of all known viruses (even if they actually don't)! E.g. during the so-called #CoxsackieBVirus outbreak in Malaysia in 1997! They placed advertisements in newspapers, making such claims! Your Emergency Room Doctor should be commended for recommending "bleach"!
