Unfortunately No.: HPV is one of the few organisms that can withstand most normal alcohol based disinfectants. It is a problem for hospitals, dr offices and the public in general. In response, they have switched to chemical cleaners based on bleach, hypochlorite or peracetic acid or autoclaving. At home, a wipedown with a 5% bleach solution will kill HPV. Hand washing + hypochlorite spray reduces the amount of HPV.
