"Does CHG (Chlorhexidine Gluconate Solution) Kill Ebola Virus?
Yes. This is a hospital-grade soap, which doctors use before performing surgeries. Studies have shown that it is effective at killing all types of bacteria & viruses, including enveloped viruses such as Ebola. This is probably your best bet for hand washing, as it is stronger than regular soap, but not as harsh on skin as bleach. The CHG 4.0% solution is present in a product called Hibiclens. This liquid soap can be purchased online or at most CVS drugstores. As an added bonus, it is also effective at killing MERSA, and quickly heals wounds that MERSA has infected.
Hibiclens Hand Wipes are the perfect replacement for basic hand sanitizer, which is ineffectual against ebola. The Hibiclens Wipes combine 70% Isopropyl Alcohol for immediate bacterial kill, plus a 0.5% CHG solution. This allows for persistent antimicrobial protection that leaves a residual CHG solution on skin – which provides killing action for up to 6 hours.

I just bought the Hibiclens scrub. Does it work as well as the wipes?
