Coronavirus Body Scratcher   (+3)  [vote for, against]
A small silver-plated mace, which head is shaped like the disease in question.

Useful for scratching back, face, whatever... also, if properly weighted, useful for maintaining social distance.

Silver is intrinsically biocidal. Very appropriate. [+]

Not so good against werewolves, though.

Because of fine detail, isn't it going to be a bit grippy for quick repeated zombie function?

The spike, may be a blurred view historic thing, really isn't a good label. I imagine the glycoprotein globular end shape would lend more to a massaging action.

If the antigen sites have fractal-engraved surfaces, they should be rough enough for the desired mild dermal abrasion.

It needs to be about half a metre long, and solid silver to give plenty of momentum in the strike - a one-hit-one-kill skull fracturing tool.

No good against plate armour, mind, but that's hardly an issue.

So, good against werewolves, zombies, and irritating itches. Can it have an anti-vampire feature? Folds out into a crucifix, sprays holy water or garlic essence ?
