What do you need to know about Covid-19 and how to disinfect it?

 With the current COVID-19 outbreak, cleaning and disinfecting your house frequently is critical to keeping yourself and your family safe and healthy.

Although the risk of spreading COVID-19 from person to person is much greater than the risk of spreading it through surfaces, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends cleaning and disinfecting high contact surfaces at least once a day, even if you don't leave every day. That's because anytime an object or person enters or leaves your home, there's a risk of exposure.

A recent study found that the new coronavirus can stay in the air for up to three hours and can remain on surfaces like cardboard as well as plastic and stainless steel for up to three days.

These are a few ways to ensure that you properly clean and sanitize your house and keep your home as germ-free as possible.

The Difference Between Cleaning and Disinfecting:

Be sure to note that cleaning a surface (removing only dust and particles) is not the same as disinfecting it to kill viruses and bacteria.

While using an effective antivirus product is key, it is also important to follow proper techniques to thoroughly disinfect surfaces. We recommend allowing the product to sit and moisten the surface or object for 10 minutes, which will kill 99.9% of bacteria.

Disinfection of COVID-19:

You don't have to clean your room from start to finish every day, but you should focus on disinfecting your germ hotspots. These are the most important items to disinfect daily.

 1. Cupboard and drawer handles/pull

2. Faucets

3. Kitchen and bathroom counters

4. Toilets, especially the seats and handles

5. Refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, and microwave handles

6. Remote controls and game controllers

7. Mobile phones, tablets, and other mobile devices

8. Computer keyboard and mouse

9. Door handles/knobs

10. Table surface

11. Staircase railings

12. Light switch/switchboard

If possible, wear disposable gloves and dispose of them after disinfection. If you have reusable gloves, be sure to sanitize them when you are finished. Always remember to wash your hands before and after cleaning and sanitizing your house.

How to clean and disinfect if you have someone in your home who is ill:

1. If you have a sick person in your home, extra precautions are recommended to clean and disinfect your home area.

2. Sick people should be separated from the rest of the household and use separate bedrooms and bathrooms when possible. You should clean and disinfect the area around the sick person only as needed (e.g., soiled areas). This will help limit your contact with the sick person.

3. If possible, you can provide the person with cleaning supplies so that they can clean their own space. If you share a bathroom with a sick person, they should clean and disinfect the space after each use. If this is not possible, wait as long as possible before cleaning and disinfecting.

4. Go ahead and wash your hands, it's been repeated a million times, but that's because it's true: no matter what you do, the best way to reduce the risk of COVID-19 or passing it on to others is to wash your hands.
