Coronavirus thru disinfectant s

2020-04-25 12:20:11
Yesterday our colony worker was spraying disinfectant spray on the staircase railing .As I was coming up and he was coming down while spraying the spray went into my eyes. I washed my eyes with water and was wearing a mask but I am very much worried. Can I get infected with corona virus by that spray in my eyes if the railing is infected with the virus?

No you will not get infected.. Sprays are disinfectant. Make sure you don't touch ur face or mask once u wear it..when ur back home wash ur hands before u touch ur face, eyes or nose. Dispose ur mask if disposable or wash it if its washable for next use

Spray would not cause coronavirus but you can wash your eyes thoroughly a few times ....if there is eye congestion it can be treated with medication. Kindly book a consultation to know more
