![Photo of anti-viral layer.<\/a>)<\/center><\/p>\nOkay, having looked more into the KLEENEX®<\/sup>-brand Anti-Viral tissues, I figured I’d add some more info about them.<\/p>\nFirst off, the copy from the back of the box:<\/p>\nBecause cold and flu viruses are often spread by hand contact, KLEENEX®<\/sup> Brand has developed a tissue for your whole family. KLEENEX®<\/sup> Anti-Viral* tissue has three soft layers, including a moisture-activated middle layer that kills 99.9% of cold and flu viruses* in the tissue within 15 minutes. This product has not been tested against bacteria, fungo or other viruses. See below for anti-viral* details.<\/p>\nACTIVE INGREDIENTS:\nCitric Acid 7.51%\nSodium Lauryl Sulfate 2.02%\nINERT INGREDIENTS 90.47%\nTotal 100%<\/p>\nDirections for Use: It is a violation of Federal law to use this product in a manner inconsistent with its labeling. Use only as a facial tissue.\n*Virucidal Agent: Rhinoviruses Type 1A and 2 (Rhinoviruses are the leading cause of the common cold); Influenza A and Influenza B (causes of the flu); Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV – the leading cause of lower respiratory infection in children).\nStorage and Disposal: Store in a dry area. Dispose of used tissues promptly. Do not reuse empty container.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nOkay, so now I am just confused. If one takes all the directions on the package into account, one should never handle the used tissues and therefore the anti-viral agents should be unnecessary.<\/p>\nThat said, I can think of the following things which these tissues could<\/em> allow one to safely do:<\/p>\n· Drying (possibly by hanging) of used tissues for future reuse, as they no longer contain cold-spreading virsuses.\n· Recycling of used tissues into a food product. (Perhaps just a filler to provide extra bulk?)\n· Behaving like a stereotypical OAP (older aged person) and carrying a tissue around and constantly reusing it.\n· Non-infectious performance art prop. But what is the point then?\n· Garbage can (bin) of used tissues can safely be used along side hair (human and\/or animal) as rustic pillow stuffing.\n· Reusable (leave-in-place-all-day) toilet seat liner.<\/p><\/blockquote>\nHrm. Still, I think these are technology and marketing going where they shouldn’t go. Despite the new possibilities, I’ll personally just stick with toilet paper roll when it comes to blowing my nose.<\/p>\nUPDATE:<\/strong> If I’m ever really mad at a girl who may be at my place, I’ll just run out of toilet paper and change to boxes of these on the back of the toilet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"KLEENEX®-brand Anti-Viral Tissue Box(Photo of anti-viral layer.)
