Keep Electronics Clean

Electronics are often carriers of germs because we carry them everywhere with us.  It is important to keep them cleaned properly, especially while the COVID-19 pandemic is happening around the world. Studies have found that the coronaviruses can persist on inanimate surfaces like metal, glass or plastic for up to 9 days.

Do:

• Use (2) link-free cloths (a damp one first then a second to dry with)
  If you can, cover phone displays with a screen cover, if that isn't already the case with your phone
  Mixture: 60 percent water and 40 percent rubbing alcohol
• Add a small amount of soap to the damp one, if necessary
• Avoid getting any liquid into electronic devices

Don't

• Hold an electronic device under the tap or put it into water
• Use detergents or other checmical products
• Rub too hard when cleaning displays, which are easily damaged or scratched
