A member asked:
How long does norovirus live on a steering wheel my boyfriend was sick with it 2weeks ago and i'm nervous to use his jeep im emetophobia he drove sick?

No worries!: It is unlikely the virus survives on the steering wheel 2 weeks after your boyfriend's illness. But if you remain nervous, wipe the steering wheel with any standard kitchen or bathroom cleanser (409, Comet, etc) or an alcohol gel like Purel. That will kill any remaining virus and prevent you from catching it. Nothing to worry about.
