Broke my heart when he said "I'm a healthcare provider under a lot of stress, please be nice in your comments" ☹️ thank you Jeffrey, God bless you 🙏🏻
Me too, what a sweet man. Thank you!
Sarah Salman- Same. What a wonderful man. Thank you @Jeffery for this super valuable information 🙏🏽❤️🏥❤️🙏🏽
Same
It’s sad that he has to tell people to be nice.
@@thefarmingnurse I agree, that should be a given.
Made me cry that he had to tell people to be nice to him. What a world we're in
I thought the same thing. Why would people be mean? He's sharing knowledge.
I KNOW. I teared up. He deserves LOVE!
Sad world we live in....I'm glad I watched it because food delivery from Walmart is several days out so i can use this info when i go to the store.
Much love
Patricia Bentley I realized that also...he’s trying to do his part to help, but he’s also aware how cruel social media can be...I definitely commend him for taking the time to share his knowledge.
My son has OCD, the illness not perfectionism. He has been doing all this same exact stuff for years. God bless him.
I also have OCD, which sometimes manifests with long periods of germ fear. Part of me watched this thinking, "Oh, I do most of this already. Great!"
Onthehill I have too. It finally pays off.
Me too
Onthehill Have you seen the Belgian series “Professor T”? You’ll love it.
I am not diagnosed and more along the Autism spectrum but am glad to have keept many of these practices for too.
I’ve been washing anything that can be washed with hot soapy water just like he did with the fruit. I’ve always washed my fruit. Otherwise, you would go through your disinfectant really fast. I even wash off the bread bag along with the twists. Yep! Not taking any chances. Thank you for sharing with us! Folks be safe!!
We have a clean zone in the kitchen. I dump the bread out on that counter and then my husband puts it in gallon sized Ziploc bags.
It's sad when a person, such as this doctor, has to ask for kindness. How terrible it's come to this. Thank you for taking the time to show us how we can all better care for ourselves and those we love. Be safe.
Sayerdify So true! Have you seen how awful people are being to one another? It’s so sad. He’s awesome for doing this for us😊 Thankful for all the nice people out there, especially now.
ua-cam.com/video/ZSX-KqzaJZM/v-deo.html
I think it's ridiculous that he asked in advance for people to be nice. He should have some thicker skin and not care what people on the internet say. One shouldn't rely on other people for approval.
Thank you, we haven't been as careful as we could be so this is very very helpful.
Nathan Hadley people on the internet use brutality as a form of entertainment.
ua-cam.com/video/ZSX-KqzaJZM/v-deo.html
When you asked for kindness .. I cried .. I’m a nurse and that’s all I would like in these tough times.. thank you Dr! You are appreciated !
Muzikcal. And many blessings to you for giving your skills and time to help others. 🧡

katniptime4me thanks you!
I send great positive vibes of comfort to you and ur loved ones.
❤💜💙💚💛🔥💛💚💙💜❤
6:11 If i can add a little something, touching the box and then the bag makes the bag as much a risk as the box itself. Instead, open the box without touching the bag and let the bag drop from the box onto the clean side of the table.
Good catch. We've been doing that (seems logical), but I didn't realize he didn't do it in the video.
Yes, I was concerned about that! The virus can live on the plastic bag for three days!
Great point.. and thanks for being kind in the way you suggested that. I fully expected someone to call him out in an abrasive way when I saw that in the video: "you dont know what your doing" kind of reactionary stuff we are used to seeing online.
@@sebastianberesniewicz5070 Yeah, it's easy to be judgemental these days but I'm not that kind of person. I prefer to help in the best possible way.
@Marco Deo yeah, we do that too but we have a quarantined area we use to put groceries so we don't get mixed up with clean and potentially infected foods. After 3 days it goes with the rest. You can leave it longer for extra safety if you can manage.
Thank you for this. "Glittery" is now the word we use in our house to describe anything that has come in from outside and has not yet been decontaminated.
"I'm a health care provider under a lot of stress, please be nice in your comments."
Ya'll can we just give this man the appreciation he deserves in general?
Not even accounting for this vital information he's giving to everyone.
A SAINT.
Right! I don't get all the dislikes😭
What he said right There! ^^^^
@@munchkin4887 Not excusing those people, but he shouldn't feel bad, any video with this many views is gonna have a few thousand downvotes. 115k upvotes to 2.7k downvotes is a really good ratio, it's literally better than a random video of adorable puppies I just found. There's always gonna be some downvoters.
True, hats off to him. Love from India
Munchkin I know what you mean, but I learned something interesting about dislikes. Many are initiated by bots!
"I'm nervous so please be nice in the comments"
I told my wife, he knows his sanitation and his internet.
Thank you for taking the time. This will save lives even if you never know about it.
. I’m headed to pick up groceries and just watched this again as a refresher to make me feel less anxious after being reminded of how to bring in groceries safely. Thank you so much for doing this. I think you are saving lives! Bless you and yours!
Dr. Jeff, thank you for all the helpful tips you have shown in this video. I sent this video to my son. Today I got a text from him saying he applied all your tips when unloading groceries and following your instructions. He also told me the employees at the grocery store were sanitizing all the carts. The store had markers 6 feet apart at the check out . He said everyone at the store was respectful with the social distancing. I'm 65 so I have not been out for weeks. We live in Minnesota and I have to say the great majority of us are being very careful and some don't care. That makes it hard for the ones who do. Thank you Dr. Jeff for taking the time to make these informative videos. Take care and God bless.
The few minutes this professional took out of his busy and stressful life to make this video undoubtedly saves lives. Thank you very much for this.
Agreed. This kind of stuff needs propagated. I would like to see some real lab data about cooking or freezing foods - it'd be good to know how long coronavirus can persist at varying temperatures.
🙏
It’s not just a few minutes. It takes a lot of time to make a video like this!
@@ghandimauler The virus survives longer at lower temps. Sanitize your plastic packages before freezing them.
OMG, this guy gave an easy answer on how to the stop spreading of COVID-19. See this video and share it please. ua-cam.com/video/iI4K5loFrXI/v-deo.html
Omg, "I'm a healthcare worker under a lot of stress, please be nice in your comments" is the most beautiful vulnerable thing I've seen today
This is wonderful, thank you!
Yes. How we'll win
It's sad that it needs to be said.
I am one of the kindest people you will meet i have a right to comment. Take any precaution necessary i just don't think i'm gonna do all maybe some of his ideas, but kinda overkill. I just lost 3 people in 7 months not this of course & last one was my 28 yr old son last week. I'm devastated so please if i sound harsh i am! Healthcare is in serious trouble & the doctor in charge of my son near the end of his poor young life was SICKER THAN A DOG WHY DIDN'T SHE STAY HOME???
@@maureencoulson9466 .. I am sorry for your loss. 🙏✌❤
I originally watched this on 3/25 and it was the basis of my intake table I set up in my garage. Blue tape down the middle of the table and everything. Of course there have been some modifications along the way, but it is still there and we use the glitter analogy all the time. Thank you for doing this so long ago. Really helped us to get organized around bringing items into our home with confidence.
Thank you and thank you again. My husband just finished receiving and at least partially storing a delivery of groceries. A few minutes ago he was explaining all he had done to try to keep things as sterile as possible - and he said he had been thinking about and trying to follow your recommendations! I had shown him the video and also sent it to friends and relatives. Again thanks.
This man is incredible! I work for him, as he is our Medical Director at Heartland Hospice in Grand Rapids, MI. Please donate any items you can to healthcare workers, as we are in need of PPE supplies. Doc, you are the very best MD I have ever worked for. Thank you for the video, everyone needs to view this. Robin
Robin, Please let the good doctor know his videos are outstanding and very informative. Please thank him for all of us! very stressful times we live in. I worked in dentistry for over 30 yrs so unfortunately, I was up on all this but most people are not germaphobic like me and just don't think this way. I have been bleaching my big milk and orange juice containers for years! this video is a real eye opener. Thank you from Canada!
Hi, if we don't have the supplies ourselves, what's a good fund we can donate to?
Please tell this man that the people of NY appreciate him for making this video
None of these practices are supported by the CDC or WHO. It is unethical to say otherwise. He is doing nothing but promoting panic and fear. It needs to be taken down immediately.
mary w - quit your crap. It’s better to be overly safe than not.
He's been my Dr for over 20 years. He's one of the best doctors and human beings I have ever known. I am so proud and grateful to be one of his patients. Thank you Dr. Van Wingen!!
Lucky you!!!
😍😍😍
He seems like a truly capable doctor, and amazing. Makes me want to move up north!
@tuksakat1 tuksakat1 Why are you so incredulous?
You are so lucky! He seems really kind.
"We're about a week in" holy mole-y, throwback saturday took ME by surprise
was just thinking the same thing
there is an earnest interview with jeff vw posted somewhere on google that i was reading yesterday
It's hero's like you who are on the front lines through this pandemic and I for one appreciate all that you do. God bless you and all the medical personnel who help us through this crisis.
We'll never know how many lives are ultimately saved by this simple thirteen-minute video. Thank you, Dr. VanWingen. You're an angel.
too much. not practical at all.
your all so paranoid,,, fear cancer far more
While we worship fictional superheroes from movies and comic books, we are forgetting that there are real-life heroes like this guy, who are working their asses off day and night and risking their own lives for our safety and health
Yes and it's not just doctors and nurses.
What about LaBron James?
@@BillMorganChannel nope
@@atlass8331 I was talking about the people working in the healthcare field as well as the Police, Scientists etc who are helping to solve the issue
I doubt anyone's worshiping fictional superheroes right now...
This was so timely. I’m a 79 year old diabetic and I have to go grocery shopping tomorrow. Frankly it never occurred to me to go to this extreme. I’ll have my counter clean before I bring my groceries in the house. Who knows, you may have saved both my wife’s and my life. Cream rises to the top in desperate times and believe me when I say that your taking the time to explain in such detail when you are probably exhausted tells me you Doctor, are rich cream indeed. God bless you and yours.
Thank you so much! A friend shared this video with me today and I've just shared it with all of my contacts. My parents (over 60) finally understood that they shouldn't be going to the supermarket and agreed to let my younger brother go instead. Plus, they will begin disinfecting everything. I thought I was taking good care of myself but this video helped me see all the things that I was still missing. Thank you all the way from Mexico!
It hurt my heart when you had to ask for kindness in the comments. I seen this video on Facebook, but I wanted to go search it on UA-cam to be able leave a comment that you would hopefully see.
Thank you for sharing this video, I found this very helpful and alot of information I didn't know!
Your doing a great job as a health care worker. Sending a big social distance hug ❤️
Sad that he had to ask people to be nice. People find it so easy to bully someone on the internet.
I liked the glitter analogy, because anyone with glitter in their lives knows how that stuff can get everywhere!! And being able to dissolve it is like having a super power. Thanks!
I am a former Art Teacher and it gave me anxiety at first, but yes, if it dissolves on contact with disinfectant then that is better.
Amen, Maxine! lol
Glitter? Use a lint roller
I agree. That was the analogy I needed to teach my family.
Thank you so much - this was a huge help! Finished "sterilizing" the perishables in our Instacart order...leaving the other stuff to sit for a few days before handling.
Took me quite awhile, but it was my first time so figure I will get quicker at it.
Did it in our garage which has a utility sink AND its own fridge. My sister sent us this video and she's in a condo so she has to do everything "inside".
Glitter analogy was super duper helpful 👍🏼.
Have forwarded video to Aunt and cousins.
Thank you for sharing these tips for things people can do right now to make a difference in their lives and the lives of their family and friends. Also great ideas for immunocompromised loved ones, people undergoing chemo therapy and others. The fruit and veggies bath right off the bath is my favorite idea I’ll be doing from here on out. Thank you for serving not only the people of Grand Rapids but also the thousands who will see this video. God bless and keep you and your staff safe! - Mississippi RN
I think it’s sad that he feels the need to defend his discomfort when speaking. This is a difficult time. We gotchu bro. Thank you!
God bless Fauci, Trump, Birx
Looks like he’s reading a teleprompter
@@auraldecoy well said !
Michael Ray pppl
Michael Ray o
Why on earth would anyone give this a thumbs down for someone offering help. Kindness and compassion is more important now than ever. Thank you for this video and thank you for what you do.
people are just mean.
because they're idiots.. imagine taking the time to be negative about something so helpful!
trolls are like roaches.... even in a nuclear fallout, they will always exist...
Probably cause as he says he’s a family physician and not a virologist or an epidemiologist...? There’s plenty of advice provided by specialists of the area, including the WHO and the CDC.
Trolls be trollin
Thank you very much. You might have just saved countless lives with this video. I’ve been doing a lot of things wrong and I do the groceries for my elderly parents over 70 and 80. I’m praying for you guys out there. Godspeed!
Thank you for this info and your effort during this crazy time. As a nurse I appreciate you providing info to the community to hopefully prevent more requiring hospitalization and staying safe.
He knows how terrible humans can be, even in a time like this, so he asked for mercy.
It absolutely shattered me that such a thing even needed to be requested, but there it is.
If that represents everything he is going to eat over a two week period, he is going to starve to death. And he would be a terrible hoarder as well. Sorry, but this is WAY overboard.
Steve Kassel how do you know?
Thanks Dr. Maybe a Jesus fast would be less scary? Instacart came, I sprayed my fruits the bags and tossed the bags in the outside bins. The way folks are still mowing and blowing in SC, if this virus is like glitter all over.....my neighbors just killed. Me...... folks act as if the virus kills everyone. God takes us when he is ready. As far as living on metal. Cars going to the grocery store are bringing the glitter into the garage where the stored food is. Alcohol, Clorox, Lysol......all deadly but necessary. We need to take things and diffuse our air so we ourselves are virus proof and most of all trust GOD. Your suggestions are wonderful, but man...get those bags off of your counters even in normal times. This is probably the best message......we have gotten lazy and nasty over time. Hence this wake up America by God. Get simple again. Minimal.....
Steve Kassel no it isn’t, I’m sorry but welcome to the new normal.
Thank you so much for sharing!
Notes for reference:
-When going to the supermarket:
1.Wipe down cart
2.Commit to the goods you want to buy.
3. Don’t go out if you have respiratory illness.
4. Plan ahead - get a list and spend minimum time in supermarkets.
-Consider as trying to get glitters off all your groceries.
-Try to leave your groceries outside, if you have to bring them in, do this:
1.Clean your table throughly using standard disinfectant.
2.Divide up two zones, one clean, the other considered to put the “dirty” groceries.
3.Wipe things that human hand may have touched using désinfectant- medicine bottle, wrapper of vegetables and chips, plastic things you can spray as well, ice cream container.
4. If you are sending groceries to others, after using cloth bags, make sure they go outside.
5. Fruits: dump them into soapy water and wash each of them more than 20 secs. Rinse the fruits thoroughly.
- Takeouts
1. Wash you hands! Always wash your hands.
2. Prépare clean dishes.
3. Remove wrapper, dump the food into the clean dishes.
4. Use heat to kill coronavirus, do not use cold temperature. So do microwave! Choose hot food rather than cold food.
Let’s all stay safe and healthy.
Thanks for the summary
And when handwashing away from home, turn off the faucet with a towel, remember, the SOB before you took a crap, turned on the water, rinsed, turned off the water spreading poop and now you're washing.
Carry the towel to the door and open the door with it. A university study found the faucets and door handles/knobs were above and beyond the call of nasty.
jo qiao God bless you to spend time to summarize the content!
jo qiao thanks
What shall we do with clothing/fabric? If virus is on our clothing, shall we wash in hot water?? Microwave it??
I liked the flow of this first video best, but realize he needed to update with info. So grateful he took the time to do this in his wonderful, personable style!! Thank you so much, Doctor!
Thank you Dr. Jeff. I have watched a few of your videos. You are concerned, and delivering real, easy to do methods with food to protect our families. I am 72 so no one is letting me go to the store. Thank you for your time & effort to make these videos. Your voice is so reassuring, and soothing.
I like this man. He is under a lot of stress and still made this video for us.
I agree. Such valuable information.
I thought this was a great video!
We aren’t in an area currently highly infected but I have a newborn and am not taking any chances with myself or him.
Sharing with all my friends and family.
He is being rewarded with a lot of money! 24 million views adds up!!
@@strongheart8224 I doubt that he would monetize these videos.
@@HeliosofSweden That's just how youtube works. Maybe he would give it to needy people. Or buy everybody hand sanitizer.
I work at a grocery store. I'm scared shitless every single day I go to work. I can only imagine how the hospital workers feel... at least they have protective gear! Thank you everyone for your support!!
Thinking of you and all of the other workers out there. Sending you Reiki for protection, health and safety.
@@HeatherMichet thank you very much, I also have a wife 3 kids all under the age of 7 so I worry about bringing something home to them
Bless you 🧡
@@RS-ge4dz Luckily young kids are the safest from this virus.
@@Loebane I understand that's the statistics but I've seen cases where young kids, younger adults ,healthy people are dying with no underlying health conditions so its quite nerve racking I guess it's how your immune system respondes and the decision of GOD
I’m a Caregiver to a little lady who is 94 and on oxygen 24/7. So I Thank You for all you do including taking time to do this video!!
What an angel of a man! Your kindness and gentle nature is evident to all. Thank you for doing this!
Healthcare workers are the soldiers on the front line of this war. Respect!
Just fyi some healthcare workers are servicemembers too serving American military and others all over the world. Not to negate what you said just to add.
@@MrsPinkyThoughts Thanks!
I don’t know about y’all, but I’ve been so inspired to go harder in my garden this year. The less I have to rely on supermarkets in a world like this, the better. 🤧
Cara.S. I'm with you
Yep!
same!
Cara S. Im with u sister more than 100 percent ... Good luck everyone and God bless us all ....
Same here.... we have started planting fruit trees about 3mths and some vegetables for about 1 month now! It is starting to bear fruit!!! We love it....
Marvelous! So appreciative of your professionalism, sterile technique and excellent teaching capability Jeffrey!
I am grateful how much I learned from you. On my next shopping day or take out day I will feel so much more empowered after learning
from you. Your parents are fortunate to have nurtured such a caring son!
All the best health and happiness to you and your family! My heartfelt thanks!
Deeply appreciate you taking the time to provide this information. I am a mental health care provider in Seattle, WA. Your video and text was clear, practical and you are a wonderful teacher. Wishing you and your family health and wellness.
I can feel the heaviness when he said he was under a lot of stress. What you’re doing is making a difference for us, even if for many of us, in the kitchen. I went grocery shopping today and had to buy a lil bit of this and that. I thought I was doing enough when I wiped everything outside before bringing in my stuff and didn’t think to take stuff out from the packaging. I washed all my fruit and vegetables, took cereals out from the boxes. Just have to do the frozen stuff. Took a break to say thank you for this video. I shared it to several people. Stay safe!
I just managed to escape the epidemic ， Follow me and see my experience --COVID-19 is coming , How can we avoid novel coronavirus pneumonia ？ Self rescue method in epidemic situation .
Keep updating if someone watches.
Not all heroes wear capes. This one wears scrubs. 👍 💙
👍
Amen.
Thank you sir for sharing this video from another doctor in Malaysia
So true!!!
Looking at the New England Journal of Medicine, it says that corona virus lives in cardboard up to 24hours instead of 1h. Please like so people are aware of this.
@Marco Deo *NO.* It doesn't live on _surface areas up to 17 days._ What _was_ found on the Diamond Princess cruise was that *RNA* (genetic material) of the virus is detectable 17 days afterwards and _NOT LIVING, ACTIVE CORONA._
Science journalism reporting that _Genetic material of Corona was found on surfaces for up to 17 days_ is like saying that an x-ray of King Tut's tomb is proof that he's _survive for thousands of years._ It's just bad science journalism at it's absolute *WORST*
edit - Not yelling at you personally. Just hate how this was reported is all.
He corrected himself. When he had the cereal box, he said 24hr
You are correct. Cant blame the media tho bad news good money. But i agree their info is misleading
yeap, this wonderful video was made before the new foundings, now we know: in glass, steel, plastic 5-7 days, cardboard 24 hrs...unless the item was in a freezer, then it lives 14 days....so, disinfect everything you bring from the outside, or wash them with soap and water before putting them inside your pantry or refrigerator...and Amazon deliveries, and mail..leave the packages or envelopes in "quarentine" for at least 4-5 days before opening...🤷🏻♀️
@@susy2731
Uh...how about if I open my envelopes and packages as soon as they arrive, dispose of the packaging AND THEN WASH MY HANDS.
I see no reason to delay opening my mail. That's what soap and water is for.
Way to speak up about asking for kindness. Not a lot of people do that anymore. Your video was very knowledgeable, thank you for the time you took to do that for everybody who's going to watch. Stay safe out there
When you said you’re under a lot of stress, I felt that. I pray God protects you as you work with your patients & easy any stress and anxiety you’re experiencing in Jesus’ name.
Amen
I agree with you in this prayer in Jesus' mighty name
What's he going to do thats like asking Santa for a present.
Well.. I suppose God could have just made the virus go away.
But sure, pray for one guy. It really helped the thousand who already died from the virus.
Amen
AMEN!
PREACH!
Literally did everything in this video before it existed while my husband sighed at me, thinking I was insane, and gave me mad crazy looks, so I’m truly grateful that this video came out. Now, he does everything that I ask him to without the spit and venom and me shouting, “If you get it, we get it too!!!” So here’s to all the wives who are married to men who listen to complete strangers, before they listen to their wives! Cheers! I feel your pain.🥂
Amen, sister! My husband is the same way
Same.!! I don't care what anyone says.
Well that works both ways, but true.
Also kids! (Teenagers home from college)
Um... I introduced this technique in our household a few days ago and last time I checked, I had all the necessary bits to qualify as a male. So, yes, you could extend this to wives who think their husbands are insane as well. Who would have thought?
Thank You for your kind & caring Spirit. We So Appreciate You. God Bless You!
I cannot thank you enough, We all need to be nice to each other, not just now, but in general. The taking things out of the packages suggestion is great. And the frozen food item was also an eye-opener. THANK YOU
Please know that you've just helped 50+ case managers help their 60+ caseloads of elderly/disabled people! Bless you! 🙏❤
Thank you so much for all you taking care of elderly people, May Allah bless & guide you! ❤
@@rogue_spirit thank you!!! ❤🙏
I am a nurse and I have been wiping down my groceries for the past couple of weeks while my boyfriend has watched me as if I am crazy. I can't wait to show him this as it really provides a great explanation. Thank you!
The FDA says that there's no need to disinfect groceries, but I've seen a couple of medical people who say they do. It's so confusing to know what to do...
I hope he's your "live in" boyfriend
@@sabr4174 yeah, you really should. if the virus can live on plastic, paper/cardboard, metal etc. you can definitely get infected
I’ve been doing it tooooo
}*{I do the same as well !}*{
Thank you kindly doctor Jeffrey. May God Bless you and your family and also your loved ones!!!
I had to go out to the pharmacy yesterday (with gloves and mask), it was early so I stopped @ Smith's to see if they actually had any TP- and some cat food (I am the cat lady😻), and when I got home I did all these things he said to do. I had the guilts for going out in the first place - but I needed my script. This process does take time to do all these things but that's all I've got for now is time - and it did alleviate my anxiety for the most part. My sincere THANK YOU! to Dr. VanWingen and all the wonderful, heroic healthcare workers. ❤️❤️❤️
I really like how he said “be nice in your comments”.
Regina’s Vlogs I think it’s sad that it has to be said at all.
Claire Bell indeed
Claire Bell the internet is filled with a lot of trolls, smartasses, and condescending assholes. Most of them on UA-cam try to hide by being anonymous. It’s difficult to avoid them unfortunately.
Chris Perez reading more, but do not see many rude comments, just contrary points of view. Not ad hominem.
He clearly knows the UA-cams...
Thank you Jeffrey, God bless you. Here in Russia we are at the beginning of the epidemic, but the speed is growing. I've just translated your advice into Russian and shared on Facebook. God save the human race thanks to people like you.
God bless you, and we pray that Russia stays healthy
@Irina Smith I noticed a lot of comments in Russian UA-cam that masks are sold out. Are you guys starting to make your own now for personal use?
Good information is the key! Good luck!
My prayers are with you.
Stay well.
Pat-USA
God bless you. Much love from the USA.
God Bless you! Thank you for taking the time to do this video, and sharing this valuable information, I was concerned and was not sure how to sanitize the groceries. We appreciate all you, and the health professionals are doing to save lives. Thank, you !
thank you so much from Japan. this video saves billions billions people in the world. thank you for saving lives not only in your local area. God bless you, your family, your co-workers, and everyone on this planet.
The fact that this hero has to tell everyone to be nice in the comments is a real tragedy.
Agreed! So sad :(
It’s just humbling!
Yeah, it's been shocking to see what our society has become. And great to see there are some good people out there too.
Cause everyone has to troll everything nowadays. It’s not a joke
We respect and appreciate what the hospital staffs are doing .💕
*Honestly, we should CONTINUE these practices, (FOREVER) after this pandemic. Restaurants should ALWAYS be this hygienic.*
*THANK YOU!*
Yeh I was thinking the cities on this planet have never been this clean. However, I grieve for all the disinfectant & extra crap going into the oceans & the masses of extra plastic into landfill 😢
Restaurants are like this all of the time. This is basic food safety. If you take hospitality management classes, you'll learn all of this stuff. And if you look at restaurant health code violations, you'll see what things restaurants can get flagged for doing, or not doing.
Dear Doctor VanWingen, Thank you so much for this valuable information. Also, thank you so much for your service as a healer. You are on the front lines in this battle. God Bless you, and God Bless your parents.
What no one seems to worry about is one's shoes. People spit on the ground, sneezes fall to the floor and everything gross you can think of, yet people walk right in their homes with no thought.
Yvonne Eckhart I know!!! But I’m guilty!!! I can’t stop. If you are raised having to take them off, it would be easier. If you cultured the bottom of your shoes, the Petri dish would end up with it’s own zip code.
I always spray disinfectan on my shoes & bottom shoes
I make my family wash the bottom sole in running water and soap. Disinfection may work. In India when we grew up, our practice was to leave shoes and sandal outside the front door, and wash hands and legs with soap before entering the rest of the house
@@brindlekintales We always remove our shoes before entering the house.
Yvonne Eckhart Yeah. Watch @6:56🦠
*THIS* is when we realize the value of technology, and places like UA-cam, where important information can be shared! Someday, when this is all behind us, I hope we'll have a new appreciation of who the heroes are. Jeffrey is one of them; he's reaching millions, and may very well save some lives.
Dennis yes. Truth !!!
As a retired physician, I really appreciated these common sense recommendation. Thank you Dr. Van Wingen!
Thank you so much - this was the proof I needed to share with friends/family that I wasn't going overboard in following these kinds of precautions!
How thoughtful of you to take the time to make this video. I have yet to order take=out for fear of contamination - but you have shown me how to unwrap it safely. I'm sure many people come straight home from the grocery store assuming the food they bought was not contaminated and just put it on their shelves. Thanks for opening our eyes as to the possibilities of contamination and how to mitigate those. You are saving lives, my friend! Very well made and educational video.
I'm senior, almost 80, living alone. My children live two states away. I have no choice but to do my own grocery shopping. At least I can take steps to prevent the virus from coming into my home.
Do you have neighbors that might be willing to help? We've offered to get groceries for those around us.
Carol Raymond maybe consider ordering the groceries? A lot of big chain grocery stores will deliver your groceries to you or they will put them in your car. There are also some apps that will allow a shopper to shop for you and drop off your groceries.
May God bless you,stay healthy n stay safe carol
There are grocery services that will deliver right to your door and even leave them on your porch. A lot of grocery stores offer this service, but there are other companies that do, too. Look into InstaCart as one option. It will cost you about $10 extra for every $100 of groceries you order.
Carol, perhaps you could mention in what city you live and one of us in your area could help you out?
how could anyone be rude in comments when someone is trying to help
You would be surprised
Cause most people suck. Very thankful that this man is trying to help.
Must be new to the internet.
There are trolls everywhere, sadly.
Because it's UA-cam, where the dregs of society like to peruse.
I love the "think about this as glitter" analogy -- perfect. Thank you for taking the time to go through all of the details and different materials.
Love this guy
I truly admire heroes like you. You inspire me, man. Thank you for making me feel less afraid of going grocery shopping. I've been taking all the precautions I can find, yours make a great addition. Thank you for doing what you do.
Jeffrey, I can't imagine what you must be going through and I really can't imagine why anyone would be anything but kind to you. In my eyes, you are a hero. Thank you for showing us what we must do to fight this virus. I was really wondering about what to do with groceries and now I feel much safer. Thank you!
Thank you Jeffrey.Im a nurse..LPN and a methadone patient..I smoke weed...there are some rude judgemental assholes in this world...I hope somebody makes a rude comment to me.cause I will tell you the fuck off !!!! Im sick of rude ass mother fuckers..especially rude strangers on social media !!!! It is a fucking shame !!! Fuck you if thats you !!! Lol..everyone else be blessed !!! I pray for all of the nonjudgemental non rude people !!! Thanks again DR JEFF FRO. DUVAL COUNTY JAX FL !!!! DUUVVAAALLLL !!
Given your profession and the IMMENSE stress you are all under I want to take a moment to thank you. Thank you for risking so much for so many and taking the time during these crazy days to help people better understand how to properly take care of themselves. Stay Safe everyone!
when he said "I'm under a lot of stress so please be nice.."...oh my...thank you for your service...
You are such a gentle soul!! God bless you abundantly for your advice!
My husband is also a primary care doc. Great work my friend! Keep up the hard work! We all truly appreciate it! Especially during the times of an unfamiliar airborne pathogen!
Everyone is paying attention Doc! Many thanks!! Stay well everyone and protect others! 🙏💖😷🦠😉🙏
I'm an operating room nurse and I agree with the whole aseptic technique principle. Thank you doctor! You're going to save a lot of lives with this health education video. God bless you!
Do we need to rinse the cloth before moving to the next item? If we keep using the same (chemical saturated) washcloth do we risk cross contamination of the covid "glitter"? Do we need to wait a minute between each item to give chemical time to kill covid? Bottle says to leave it on a minute
I went shopping today and I sanitized everything I bought before I put it in my car. And yes people were looking at me like I’m crazy I but I don’t care. I’m not taking any chance. I live with my 85 year old grandma she can not get this disease.
meganmariex95 I commend you for being so mindful and careful for the safety of your grandmother. I’m sending you both my best thoughts. ❤️
That's actually good thinking. Just recently my aunt died from cancer. She went through chemo. I never thought of doing this. This could have decreased her risk to the colds that she got.
you need ot have something to sanitize it with. Can't get anything.
What about your car seats! It's better to take them home and do like what he does and tell your grandma not to use the table.
ellen jacobson try Everclear. It’s 190 proof (I believe it’s anything over 90%, which is equal to 180 proof, will kill the virus). Obviously the problem is it’s incredibly drying, so you can, for instance buy a container of baby wipes, open it up, pour some of the Everclear in and use that. Or just make yourself a bucket of hot soapy water and remember to wash for at least 20 seconds and it will be disinfected.
Thank you, doctor, for your love of your neighbors! So appreciate this video! God bless you and your family for doing this!
Thank you! Very informative, I'm a caregiver for my mom with alzheimer's and I just shared this with our retirement community facebook page to get the word out
To whomever needs this right now: hang in there, we are all in this together and will do our best to get out of it together!
Hi Ryder, What a beautiful thing to say! Be WELL (We are all in this, Together! 💚)
Ty Ryder💟
I needed this comment. Thanks
@@no-fc9tp 🤗👍💚
@@no-fc9tp my pleasure! Glad it helped!
I can't even begin to imagine what you and your colleagues are going through. Thank you for your courage and expertise.
Dear Dr. Appreciating so much ur time to help us all to stay well.God Bless you and Thank you😷🙏😳
Thank you so much Dr. VanWingen! #stayhome #savelives #inthistogether God Bless You!
Thank you Jeffrey, this world need more people like you! We are blessed for having brave front liners like you Sir🙏🏼 Stay safe always and may God protect you at all times.
MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN A RESEARCH SCIENTIST FOR 35 YEARS, THIS DR IS HELPING ALL OF US. LISTEN & ACTION ALL THE TIME.
June Beven hi can you ask your husband if watered down bleach is enough of a disinfectant. Can’t get a hold of lysolor lysol wipes. Also please tell your husband that we thank him for all that he’s contributed to our society.
@@maecalva Stop being OCD and fear-based. This is crazy. You're being manipulated and you're going along with it like a good little sheep.
@@lemurianchick dude, my uncle in spain passed away this morning due to the symptoms caused by the virus. He was not a smoker, was 66 years old and healthy. At least the sheep will see the end of the pandemic. And if you choose to not believe it, like climate change deniers and flat earthers (yes i am putting it all in the same sack of absurds) then let the rest be OCD, let us be, let people who want to be careful be careful.
lemurian chick just move along please. thank you.
@@maecalva :)
As my mother would say, "you are an angel"... and, a great humanitarian.

Praveen Kumar Adding a link here to promote your channel, while pretending to be replying to a message is not very nice....
Thank you so much for making and posting this very informative video !! God bless you!!
Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. No one else has thought about it as far as I know. Please be healthy.
Bless your heart man, bless your heart!! I can tell this man is frazzled. Thanks for some solid advise! I'm sending this video to my dad.
Describing take-out as "I've just returned from foraging" I audibly chuckled. Classic dad joke. 👍
I remember I was using that joke a long time ago, boldly telling my girlfriend that I would go out into the wilderness and bring back some dinner. She gave me some money and said "go kill me a pizza." :-) Peace to everyone.
My dad says “I’ve hunger-gathered some Taco Bell” haha
Dr. Jeffrey you represent the amazing human being that has a huge heart for the betterment of humanity. Thank you for putting this soulful video together and totally appreciate you. Sharing now with everyone I know.
Thank you Dr. Jeff for taking the time to make this informative video. It is sad that you had to request to be kind in comments for this video. Thankfully there are many kind people in the world who have (and will continue to) show appreciation to you, for your contribution to all of us. Take good care of you and thank you again for your service.
This is great information for those people who are not taking this thing seriously. I liked the clean and dirty side of the table. We have been transferring things at the threshold of our door from the garage. I appreciate the time spent to create this video. It is helpful and useful and we all need some training ins proper safety protocols. Go get them DR. Jeff - keep yourself and your family safe.
If the covid 19 induced lock down has taught us anything, it is that we are completely dependent on each other for everything. We need our farmers, grocers, doctors, etc etc without whom we would be helpless, and yet we use social media to be horrible to one other through comments etc. Hopefully this pandemic will teach us to learn to love others so that a in future, a kind doctor like this doesn't have to request us to be nice in our comments .
Amen. ❤🙏 to you
And nurses.
people tend to forget the people who keep the lights/internet on in everyone's houses/hospitals and the water coming in and going out. Everyone is stressed out right now so show kindness when in public.
Tip from New Zealand: cloth bags can go into the washing machine after emptying. We no longer have plastic bags here...
@@argonautilus9540 Except that soap breaks down the virus (it doesn't just remove it) so the washing stage probably also kills the virus.
@@Bdoserror This would be the same principle as using soap and water to wash one's hands (I have not heard it recommended that one stick one's hands in the oven).
@@CincyDude5 It is, Soap and Washing Powder are caustic bases. That dissolves the fat-based protein shell that surrounds CV-19. If the protein shell gets destroyed/dissolved, the only thing left is the raw RNA/DNA which is useless as there's no longer a attachment for it to attack human cells with.
@@JameZayer your message needs more likes for people to see.
@@JameZayer So how about salt, vinegar and washing soda / Soda Carbonate? are they able to kill the virus?
To the ones who would hurt you with attitude/ comments those people really don't deserve the kindness, the charitable sharing you offer. hugs.
This was very eye opening and informative, thank you! I agree with Patricia's comment about how sad it is that Dr Jeff has to ask folks to be nice in their comments. Heaven help us!
Why on earth would someone want to be nasty when all you're trying to do is help. THANK YOU for this, you're a true hero. Blessings fron England (on lockdown week 2!!)
Because people have shown time and time again that they're jerks.

He's spreading misinformation. This is exploitation, not education.
Because there are still many idiots and assholes on this planet !
@@neetrab Including the people who are perpetuating this excessive paranoia. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Just wash your hands for 20 seconds and stop eating junk food.
Today we added a “dirty” section and a “clean” section to a kitchen counter. We even used blue masking tape in your honor: THANKS, again!
We did too.
♥️
I can't give up counter space. I'm going to bring in the camping table. As I'm leaving for the store (always pick up now days), I'll set up the table. That way it will be ready as I walk in the door. I've been putting everything on the floor and spraying with 70 percent alcohol.
