Covid19

Saw on another site that Covid19 virus can survive up to 12 hours on clothing but only a few minutes on skin. Another reason to stay naked.

Unfortunately that is simply an urban myth and the COVID-19 VIRUS can survive up to three days on clothing (although normally much less) and survives long enough on skin to infect you.
The fact that the social media post you saw called it bacteria and not a virus should have given you a clue.

Yes, regrettably, it's mis-information. Get Corona virus on your skin and you could most probably become ill, with the virus multiplying inside you ready to infect someone else.

My mistake on virus v bacteria, now fixed. Source post was correct. Don't know what I was (not) thinking when I typed it.
