That Bacardi 150 proof rum, would work, or go to your Liquor store and get
190 percent proof ever clear, pure alcohol.

Well, my husband was out today to the store, actually two of them, and
there were no cleaning supplies to be had. No alcohol. And online, Knogo. I
don’t know who’s buying all this alcohol.

Hi Mary,
If you get yours back you should just wash it with warm water and soap,
then let it sit for 3 or 4 days and there won’t be any danger COVID-19 is still
live on it.
Can you really not get pharmaceutical grade alcohol? For a while alcohol
based hand sanitizer here was scarce and the gel type still seems to be, but
our local sanitary supply business now had liquid hand sanitizer in little
spray bottles and 4 L (just over 1 Gallon) refills, I bought one of those for
my store and that should last for a while.
Best regards,

Thanks for the info. I’m definitely keeping the information about the
Thermo. Not going to help me now. I guess I can just hope I don’t get the
bloody thing. Or if I can actually find rubbing alcohol, I would at least have
something to disinfect mine when it comes back.

The kind of thermometer that does not touch the skin – forehead
thermometers that are held very slightly away from the forehead and scanned
across it.
Thanks for all of this timely conversation about Bluetooth thermometers.

I'm not sure what you mean by noncontact.
But, anyone looking for a thermometer right now is just going to have
to keep looking until they find a supplier that still has some.

Definitely not the time to share an under-the-tongue thermometer
these days if multiple people in your household are using it. I guess you
could disinfect it each time somebody used it, but the contactless thermometers
are definitely a better option right now and probably even if there weren’t a
COVID-19 virus, after all, if you think you have a fever you probably want to
avoid giving whatever causes it to anybody else. Of course that is not an issue
if you are only 1 person who uses it.

Good to know.
The Kinsa is an under the tongue thermometer. At least, the older
model I have is and I’m pretty sure the Bluetooth one is as well.
I’ll keep this info for reference though. Sounds excellent.

There is also the “Thermo” from Nokia Health formerly Withings.
Below are links, first to the Withings website directly, then to the
Canadian Apple, Amazon and Best Buy, after that the US Apple Store, Amazon,
Best Buy and Walmart. Finally I put the links for the Thermo app on both the
Canadian and US App Stores. The only problem is that it seems you are not going
to be able to find one since they show as sold out everywhere or, in the case
of Amazon, as “currently unavailable”, I guess that is probably a result of
COVID-19.
I haven’t checked, but that may very well be the case for the Kinsa
thermometer as well.
The Thermo, by the way, connects via WiFi, not Bluetooth. we have had
ours for probably 3 years or a bit longer and I hadn’t used it until recently
for about 2 years because just before Christmas 2017 was the only and last time
I was sick with the flu and a fever in probably 10 years.
I did use it a bit more often recently just checking myself since I
do have a retail store and am out in public every day. I realized I hadn’t even
connected it yet to my iPhone 8 which I got a year and a half ago, but as
before the connection was easy and quick and after signing in to the app with
my user name and password my wife’s and my own profiles showed up and I could
still see the measurements I took back in 2017.
The Thermo also has a display where a sighted person can instantly
read the result, otherwise you can get the result inside the app about 15 or so
seconds after the reading is complete.
There is one single button. You press it once and the thermometer
makes a small vibration which means it’s ready. You have to be a little bit
quick and have it ready pointing to the middle of your forehead about half an
inch or so away from your skin since the measuring starts right away after the
vibration and only lasts for about 4 or 5 seconds.
It reads the temperature contactless, as soon as it vibrates you
smoothly move it from the middle of your forehead to your temple and stop
there, the Thermo will vibrate twice to indicate it has finished the reading.
After you do this a few times you quickly get the hang of how fast
you have to move it across your forehead so you get to your temple just before
the second double vibration.
Even if you take a reading without the Thermo app open you soon get a
notification that a new temperature reading is available, if you double tap on
that notification the app opens and shows the profiles you have set up.
In our case it shows “Me” which is me and it shows “Jackie” which is
my wife. Above that it then shows an unassigned reading, if you double tap on
that Voiceover reads out the date, time and the temperature and you can then
double tap on whichever profile you want to assign that reading to. It’s very
accessible, very simple and reliable.
After you are done you just put on the soft silicon cover and the
Thermo will turn itself off, if you want to take a second reading you just
press the button again and repeat. You can take 2 or 3 readings one after
another and if you do this you’ll see in the app that it will say that there
are 2, 3 or however many readings you took which are unassigned, you can tap on
each one and assign it or if they are all from yourself you can tap on “Select
All” and assign them all to your profile at once. In the same way you can also
delete any of the readings you took or delete them all at once.
Lastly, the Thermo app will transfer data to the Apple Health app if
you set this up and give the permission.
OK, here now all the links:

on this list, about accessible thermometers. I have one, so I did not pay very
much attention. A friend of mine unfortunately got the virus. So I lent her my
thermometer, since she lives alone and didn’t have a talking thermometer. So
now I am on the hunt for an accessible one. I think at some point richard had
mentioned a Kinsey or Kenzie something like that, that was supposed to be
accessible. But I can’t remember the spelling. I thought I had the app on my
phone, but can’t find it. Any ideas?
