A member asked:
If i inhale enough lysol, will it keep me from getting sick from novel coronavirus?

Um, no: Inhaling Lysol can be deleterious to your health, more than COVID-19 itself. Burning your pulmonary tissues may actually make you more susceptible to getting sick from the virus. Be rational.

No: its unsafe to inhale lysol, may irritate your lungs and throat. lysol can disinfect surfaces but not mucous membranes
