It's almost a week old, but I haven't seen it here; just saw on the news:

 

"Dainik Bhaskar, the leading Hindi language daily, is now sanitising all its newspapers, post printing. Girish Agarwal, promoter director, Dainik Bhaskar Group, tells afaqs! that all printing plants have automatic sanitiser machines, which are sprayed on the (printed) newspaper. โ€œWe will continue to employ sanitising process till the impact of Coronavirus gets diluted in India,โ€ he says.

Explaining the sanitisation process, RD Bhatnagar, chief technology officer, Dainik Bhaskar Group, says they have installed compressed sanitiser dispensers that spray a mist on the newspapers when they are coming out of the printing machine.

 

โ€œThe sanitiser solution is prepared by using a combination of isopropyl alcohol, glycerol, hydrogen peroxide and distilled water. The solution is expensive (Rs 1,000 per litre). Its consumption is also high as it is applied as a mist,โ€ adds Bhatnagar."
