Coronavirus disease COVID-19 pandemic has imposed a reality that requires us to protect ourselves from infection, especially as the disease is highly infectious and has no specific treatment. Disinfectants are one of the most important ways to prevent the virus, specifically chlorine and alcohol-based hand sensitizers. This study aims to discuss the efficacy of both alcohol disinfectants and chlorine on the Coronavirus, and that discussion led us to the conclusion that both have an effective role in killing the virus in close proportion if used in the required circumstances and in the right way. Alcohol can also be used to make hand rubs, because of its short duration of action, and reduced side effects. Chlorine can be used to disinfect many types of surfaces and facilities due to its dangerous adverse effects on humans.
