    Yeah, I think it's a good idea for no facial hair (women have a head start on men). Keep your hair shorter than your normal. With the bacterial soaps in short supply, washing hands & face strongly with soap for longer & more periods of time is really good. That reminds me. I gotta go wash.

    I also think everyone should be bald like me.

    As for soap, there is no demonstrable evidence that the "antibacterial" kind is better than plain old soap. It's the chemistry of soap that destroys the virus cells. Any old soap will do: bar soap, liquid hand soap, dishwashing soap, laundry soap. Soap. It just needs to stay on your skin long enough to react with and kill the virus cells.

    Yeah, Triclosan, the usually antimicrobial in soap has a contact time of one minute. So you have to wash your hands for a full minute for it to be as effective at killing stuff as stated on the label.

    Soaking your hands in a bowl or salt water will nearly any living organism like a virus.

    Osmosis transfers the water out of the cell and it simply dries up and dies.

    Ocean fish get viral infections.

    A strong salt solution can kill microbes, but there isn't any evidence that it works with this virus.

    Most of the rest rooms I frequent lack bowls of salt water. But they do have soap.

    Move to the beach. Municipal water there is usually too salty to drink ;)

    EVERYONE!! Look at all the actresses that were bald in roles:

    I got a story about bald. Back in the 1920's, my grandpa was an excellent catcher on a great baseball team. All the players shaved their heads for the season. My grandpa's hair never grew back. :mad:

    I'll stay where I am and let the beach come to me. Shouldn't be too long now.

    I swim 1.5 miles and shower 3 times every day, and STILL smell like a swimming pool.

    I don't worry about not having enough chlorine.
