Vinegar, particularly white vinegar, has been shown to possess antimicrobial properties, but it is not highly effective against all pathogens. It can kill around 80% of bacteria and some viruses, but it is not considered a disinfectant for all types of germs. For effective disinfection, especially against viruses like the flu or COVID-19, stronger agents such as bleach or alcohol-based disinfectants are recommended. Therefore, while vinegar can reduce certain germs, it may not be sufficient for thorough sanitization.
