Bacterial, Fungal and Viral It kills everything from herpes and influenza to avian and fox powl virus.................... Google told me this.  It didn’t however tell me what fox powl virus is so don’t ask.......;-) 

Cheers for confirming I kind of knew I was right but needed confirmation when posters start posting stuff. Thank you.

An 'antibacterial spray' isn't going to protect you from COVID-19, if that is your hope. It's a virus.

is that just wording?? I say that becuse people use soap, ordinary sopa to kill covi and antibacterial soaps and then the anti back wipes - so am I right that anti-bac wipes, sprays will do the job for the virus.

Soap kills covid-19 because it breaks down the fatty layer that protects the virus: it does that helped by the friction generated by rubbing your hands together. So an anti-bacterial soap will do the job-indeed, any soap will. 
But an 'anti-bac' wipe or spray alone will have no more effect on the virus than an antibiotic would have on the common cold. There is very little evidence of surface to surface transmission anyway.

Except Fantex spray which as I mentioned is viral, bacterial and fungal effective

Which also hasn't been tested with Covid 19

Same as every other disinfectant, anti bac on the market - not tested against Covid 19

Thank you. I will continue to follow good SD practices and do clean our shopping del to our property and click and collect as well as post and parcels and if we can we place items in a spare room for a few days as well - you could well be right but good to do our best to avoid this virus.

We want to hope it has...........it’s what is used in our hospitals to kill bacteria, fungus and Virus’s 

I am not an expert.........as I said I have just used google ;-) but if you are really bored then you may also want to read about Fantex and all it’s Virus killing capability.......I would say it’s fascinating but it’s really not.

The best treatment you can get, and one that professionals use to deep clean and infected environment, are products containing hydrogen peroxide which can kill viruses on contact.
