Thread: used razor questions

So many ways to prevent infectious disease contamination. Yes Barbicide is tried and true also many other products that share its active disinfecting ingredients such as Lysol and Scrubbing bubbles for example. Hibiclense ( CHLORHEXIDINE ) is an excellent wash as well and is used in surgical wound prep etc and readily available at the pharmacy. All of these types of disinfectants are good at killing Hep B and more. Ultraviolet light also effective if you have access to one. if one is really paranoid about contracting Hepatitis B go and get vaccinated at your local big chain pharmacy it lasts for life. As a health care professional I was required to do so in my field because of its general persistence on surfaces. Usually after a razor is cleaned and honed until new metal is exposed whatever could of been on that razor is gone so rest easy. A little judicious cleaning goes a long way to prevent any sort of infection.
