You can also spray yourself off with disinfectant spray when you enter your home to help prevent bringing any contamination inside.

This is actually no surprise
If you were visiting someone sick in a hospital and you were in the area where viruses were being coughed out, its pretty obvious that when you get home you change and wash up..be it some new novel coronavirus, or even just the good ole flu. its a bit on the same wavelength as washing your hands
I would say the risk is not that bad, but if you tend to sweat and wipe your eyes and such with your sleeve, that could be an issue.

The conspiracy theorists in me can see a new market for easily sanitized clothes likely unisex clothes made of some antiviral anti-bacterial fabric. Homogenization of society, clothes are no longer a fashion statement everybody gets the same duds, like jumpsuits.
Sort of like the models on this page ?
Do they not look like something out of 'Logan's Run', or one of those type movies ?
( Sorry: am unable to post pics. )

I worked in hospitals for five and a half years including in patient areas and we were never told to worry about things like that other than to wear appropriate PPE in some areas and wash our hands frequently. I never missed any time for being sick and only had a cold a couple of times. This is getting ridiculous.

Wouldn't masks and clothes be considered biohazardous now? Going into the garbage when they should be getting incinerated. Will they supply us with those red plastic containers for proper disposal?
