Emerging infectious diseases, 2020•ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
Infection control instructions call for use of alcohol-based hand rub solutions to inactivate
severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2. We determined the virucidal activity of
World Health Organization–recommended hand rub formulations, at full strength and
multiple dilutions, and of the active ingredients. All disinfectants demonstrated efficient virus
inactivation.
