    Don't you love Chinglish? Or perhaps, Swineglish if more apt. I thought Beijing stamped this kind of poor signage out before the Olympics. Anyway, from a quarantined Beijing hotel...

    There is this product I heard that can kill germs for 24 hours if applied to the skin. The government should be giving this out in the airport for anyone entering the country.

    I bet this will safer guard those in Hong Kong, than us all getting contaminated and being the walking dead!
    Really Apple? You needed to revive a month-old thread to share this pearl of "wisdom" with us?

    You clearly have no clue what you're talking about and the term "walking dead" is hardly applicable to swine flu.....it's not a terminal illness.

    I think the next post will be some from someone (completely unrelated to apple of course) telling us where we can buy this magic potion.

    Yeah. Has it not occurred to you that if it was true it might be really popular at the moment?

    Check out the website: Siqclean
    From the test results it does provide 24 hours of continuous reduction in germs by a process called lysis. Apparently like some physical puncture of the germ and electrolytic charge to kill them...
    It's just a standard hand sanitiser. Soap is just as effective. Companies like this that play on the fear of people who don't really understand how viruses operate should be shot.

    hey, i reckon they could make this stuff into a vaporisor, so it micro-coats the air sacules in the lungs. this would mean you would not get infected by any respiratory tract viruses. pretty neat huh??

    it's a shame you'd suffocate, but atleast you'd be virus free - YAY!!!

    i fail to see how this would reduce the incidence of transmission of any aerosole born infection, assuming the obvious commonsense hygiene practices were followed...

    The link you gave has nothing to do with viruses. It is about bacteria.

    And anti-bacterial sanitisers do not kill viruses.
