<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">Amid the Coronavirus pandemic, it is very important to stay as sanitary as possible. <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html">The Center for Disease Control and Prevention</a> is constantly adding new guidelines for minimizing the transference and reception of COVID-19. Just recently, the Environmental Protection Agency has confirmed that the cleaning product Pine-Sol kills coronavirus on hard surfaces.</p>
<p>Yep! You heard it. The simple product in the majority of people’s households, and a staple in most African American’s cleaning cabinets, has now been proven to defeat the coronavirus within minutes. According to CNN “Pine-Sol was tested by a third-party laboratory that showed the disinfectant can kill the virus within 10 minutes of being used on hard, nonporous surfaces, The Clorox Company said in a <a class="ProsemirrorEditor-link" href="https://investors.thecloroxcompany.com/investors/news-and-events/press-releases/press-release-details/2020/Pine-Sol-Original-Multi-Surface-Cleaner-Receives-Approval-for-SARS-Cov-2-Virus-Kill-Claims/default.aspx">press release</a>.”</p>
<p>Pine-Sol is a product under the Clorox brand, thus explaining why its effective for eliminating COVID 19 in particular places. After continuous testing throughout the last few months, results have shown that “Pine-Sol Original Multi-Surface Cleaner now offers the clean families have trusted through generations with the protection they need right now against the spread of SARS-Cov-2, the virus that causes COVID-19,” Chris Hyder, vice president and general manager of the Clorox Company’s cleaning division, said <a class="ProsemirrorEditor-link" href="https://investors.thecloroxcompany.com/investors/news-and-events/press-releases/press-release-details/2020/Pine-Sol-Original-Multi-Surface-Cleaner-Receives-Approval-for-SARS-Cov-2-Virus-Kill-Claims/default.aspx">in a press release</a>.”</p>
<p>In order to make the most of the Pine-Sol cleanse, it is important you utilize the product specifically. To disinfect against SARS-Cov-2, the virus that causes <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/health-officials-say-forthcoming-covid-19-vaccine-will-be-free-for-all-its-expected-in-january-2021/">COVID-19,</a> apply the Pine-Sol Original Multi-Surface Cleaner full-strength with a clean sponge or cloth on hard, nonporous surfaces,&#8221; the company’s press release states. &#8220;Wet surface, let stand 10 minutes, and then rinse. For heavily soiled surfaces, pre-cleaning to remove excess dirt first is required,” according to The Clorox Company.</p>
<p>Nevertheless, it is important to still use good ole’ soap and water! According to CNN, “<a class="ProsemirrorEditor-link" href="https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/28/health/how-to-wash-hands-coronavirus-trnd/index.html">Handwashing</a> with soap and water is still the best way to prevent transmission of the virus, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.”</p>
