Centre to SC: Spraying disinfectants on humans physically harmful

The Centre has informed the Supreme Court that spraying of disinfectants on humans is not recommended under any circumstances, as spraying any chemical disinfectant is physically and psychologically harmful. Chemicals are harmful to the human skin and the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract if inhaled.

“External spraying of any chemical disinfectant does not kill the virus that has already entered the body of a person, who has earlier been exposed to the virus."
