Science deals mostly in inference.
False. The irrational thinking you call "Science" does not deal in inference. Inference, rather, is the domain of logic and reasoning. Perhaps you're mistaking the word, 'inference', for the word 'induction'.
What you would be asking for is deduction based on your specific case.
Deduction is inference, inference is deduction.
You could have your hands tested and the PCR technology would tell you whether you had viruses on your hands or not.
Have you done this test? Have you done this test, and thereby learned whether or not you had viruses on your hands? If you've not done so, then why do you say this? Answer: Because you are merely parroting those whom you revere as "Science".
But it's not a great use of resources to generalise this test to everyone in the population curious about whether there are viruses on their hands.
But it's somehow a great use of resources to create media-promulgated bugaboos to terrorize the masses into granting more and more power to demagogue tyrants to destroy economies and private wealth, in the name of the irrationality you revere as "Science"?
Just having some viruses on your hands is not in itself going to get you infected.
What do you imagine is the relevance of what you said, here, to anything I have said in this thread?
You would have to touch your face or touch something going in your mouth to transfer the viruses onto the mucous membranes in there.
Because to touch your face is to touch mucous membranes? Or, do you have particular difficulties keeping, say, your forehead from going into your mouth?
The experiment you outlined earlier has, pretty much, been done.
By whom? By you?
What you mean is that some whom you revere as "Science" have told you
they have done some experiment, and gotten such and such results from it, and you believe what they tell you, because you revere them as "Science".
The inference is that hand washing with soap for about twenty seconds will kill any coronaviruses, and the use of hand sanitiser for a bit longer will also kill coronaviruses.
Here, again, you erroneously use the word, 'inference'. From, "Such and such procedure has killed some coronavirus", it will never follow that "(Therefore) such and such procedure will kill any coronavirus". No proposition has ever been inferred from a proposition by which it is not entailed. Inference only occurs where there is entailment.
No indeed, that wouldn't be necessary. But washing your hands with soap after touching surfaces in public that have been touched by other people could do a great deal to slow the infection rate, which is important for protecting the capacity of the health system to give care to those most vulnerable to the effects of the disease.

It
could? Then again, perhaps it could not. For, what do
you know? You're not "Science"; you're just one of their happily unquestioning slogan parrots.
