Let's be sensible about this . . .
Touching something that has been contaminated with the virus is NOT going to infect you, but will make you a carrier when you then touch other people or things with that part of your body that has been contaminated. Our hands are the biggest problem as we touch so many different thing without thinking about it. And if your hands are contaminated, you definitely want to keep them away from your face, especially like wiping your nose, mouth, eye's and ear's. Washing well is all you need do to get rid of the contamination and one doesn't need to use any disinfectant . . . other than wiping down contaminated surfaces.
Here's what's doctors recommend:

Practice good hygiene wherever you are.
The new coronavirus can survive for hours or even days on some surfaces. Touching a contaminated surface and then touching your face is one of the ways to become infected.
The virus is no longer detectable on plastic after 72 hours, and on stainless steel or cardboard after about 48 hours. With that in mind:
- Wash your hands with soap and water frequently and thoroughly for at least 20 seconds, especially:
- After being in public places and touching door handles, shopping carts, elevator buttons, etc.
- After using the bathroom
- Before preparing food
- If soap and water are not available, use hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth, especially with unwashed hands.
- If you cough or sneeze, do so in the bend of your elbow. If you use a tissue, throw it away immediately.
