COVID-19的防疫措施反映出一種共同的文化模式:它們涉及邊界的管理。劃分自我/他人、外部/內部,非人類/人類、清潔/不清潔、暴露/未暴露,以及有風險/無風險的邊界。消毒洗手液被確立為一種跨越邊界的物料和符號,代表著這場瘟疫中各式各樣的的恐懼,關係,規範和脆弱。

The measures against COVID-19 show a common cultural pattern: they concern the management of boundaries. Boundaries that divide the self/other, the outside/inside, the non-human/ human, the clean /unclean, the exposed/ not exposed, and the at-risk/not at-risk. Hand steriliser is fixed as a boundary-crossing material and semiotic object representing a whole host of fears, relations, norms, and vulnerability.
