A new virus protection practice.

I thought we were doing pretty well.... tight fitting masks, disinfecting hands everytime we got in the car. Disinfecting groceries or leaving them for 24 hours before unpacking, using indoor and outdoor shoes, etc. But today it hit me. We get in the car after shopping and leave our probably contaminated shoes on, wiping them all over the floor, and then we put all sorts of things on the floor. Clorox wipes package, Kindle, bagged lunch, packages, etc. So all that stuff is probably contaminated and we don't think about it. (Well, if the packages were purchased, they get disinfected or left for 24 hours).

New practice. Keep a bottle of anti-virus/anti-bacterial in the car and spray the souls of our shoes before getting in the car.

We're determined to be part of that percentage of the population that just never gets it.
