Dettol is not effective against covid. Check their website disclaimer.

Just use cheap soap and water.

Normally soap dont use alcohol..their cleanser is a surfactan (if not mistaken spelling) like sodium laurel sulfate

Soap is effective at eliminating virtually any type of viruses including the Novel Coronavirus. It does not need to be of any particular brand or contain alcohol as it's ingredient.

For past 6 months I've been using foaming dispenser. Can immediately lather my hands after 3 pumps as it's already mixed with water, then only open the tap to wash off.

Mixed Dettol hand wash 1 part and tap water 2 parts.

Colloquially, you can accept "bacterias" as encompassing viruses as well. But scientifically, bacterias and viruses are different categories.

Are you kidding me? Bacteria and virus are two different thing. Please get yourself educated properly on such matters.

And as already being mentioned, by all professional cleaning + scrubbing with soap and water is the best option here.

You can use Dettol as you like, but do note that frequent use of such chemicals may destroy/disrupt skin layers which can cause easy infection. Even the FAQ for dettol do recommend using hand glove when using it (meaning don't wash your skin frequently with it)

Might be thinking that people buying the brand o Dettol as oppose to effectiveness.

Normal soap for washing will do ,just stick with foam soap o liquid as it will dispense properly.

Normal bar soap can by itself gather gems especially when the soap are being used by multiple person in the bathroom all the time.

Its scarce. But dettol body soap bar is abundance. So ehat i do is buy bar soap., cut them into 4 pieces. I used bar soap for internal house use, like stay at home but need wash hand, whereas my dettol hand soap, i use it when i return from outside.
