Bacteria have an additional wall protecting it (a scientist described it kind of like the shell of an M&M).

Carvacrol can even bust through THAT, and the COVID virus is way easier. 

Gram-negative bacteria are surrounded by a thin peptidoglycan cell wall, which itself is surrounded by an outer membrane containing lipopolysaccharide. ... In almost all cells this structure is a phospholipid bilayer that surrounds and contains the cytoplasm.
