If the virus is present on your hands, surely you transfer it to the tap when you turn on the water and then pick it back up when turning it off?

Maybe Boris has a luxury bathroom where the flow of water is activated when you hold your hands under the spout.

Nigel Farage on LBC asking a guest (a doctor), "is it good advice?"

Doc: "Yes, washing your hands will get rid of the virus and stop you transmitting it to other surfaces."

What about your tin of baked beans from the supermarket?

Are you going to wipe them all or are you going to quarantine them for nine days? (Some experts are saying COVID-19 can survive on surfaces for as long as this.)

I recall about 20 years ago needing a pee at Paddington Station.

It was 20p to go in but you didn't have to touch anything. The soap and water were all activated by motion.

Could be a market for COVID-19 vision glasses.
Pop them on and you’ll be able to see if the virus is present on your tap, tin of beans, or even on your smartphone Shocked

You didn’t need to touch ANYTHING?
Did the 20p fee include the provision of a friendly assistant to unzip, extract, shake, and return your knob to your trousers Grin

I remember a special tool on sale for the purpose of lifting the lavatory seat without having to touch it.
Others have admitted to using their foot to lift the seat.
Also many women claim they got pregnant from sitting on lavatory seats.
Which explains the high numbers of unwanted pregnancies.

Someone yesterday did say that you should remember to wipe your phone because for many it has become an extension of their hand.

Twelve new cases of coronavirus have been confirmed in England, the chief medical officer says.
It is the biggest jump in cases the UK has seen in one day.

Three patients caught the virus in the UK - they are known to be contacts of someone who already had it, and were found through contact-tracing, Professor Chris Whitty said.

One of the patients, from Essex, has not been abroad and it is not clear where they contracted COVID-19.
Six of the patients had recently travelled to Italy, and two had been to Iran.

The patients who have recently travelled are from London, West Yorkshire, Greater Manchester, Hertfordshire and Gloucestershire.

They join three cases reported yesterday, from Hertfordshire, Gloucestershire and Berkshire.
It brings the total number of confirmed cases in the UK to 35, including one in Wales and one in Northern Ireland.

Doomsday-prep tins of baked beans must by definition have been sitting in the cupboard untouched for years.

I think I just heard that there have now been 34 fatalities in Italy.

A caller to LBC earlier said that no one has mentioned spitting in the street.  I was thinking about this a few days ago so I'm glad she raised it.

The experts and the Government should ask people to refrain from this disgusting habit.

There was a case back in the 1980s where some thugs spat at a police officer at a football match.  He died of meningitis. (Some people carry it but do not develop the disease.)

You can use issue paper to operate your tap.
Just saying for those of you who still have manual taps.
