Compliance is the foundation of well-being
A lot of people are still finding discomfort and even panic during the Coronavirus outbreak. However, we gradually learn to live with these difficulties and take better care of ourselves. The Centers for Disease Control provide the recommendation and people try to follow them in order to maintain the possibility of their usual life and work without lockdowns. An important component of these measures is regular cleaning and disinfection of various surfaces on the premises.
What we should know about disinfection
When it comes to cleaning and disinfection, the first thing we should know is that these are two very different things. Cleaning is about removing contaminants, germs, and pathogens and disinfection is about killing them. Let’s focus on the disinfection process.
Disinfection should follow after cleaning. Here are some high-touch surfaces that should be disinfected regularly:
– doorknobs,
– toilets and bathrooms,
– light switches,
– remote controls,
– countertops and chairs.
The EPA has a full list of disinfectants that you can use. Some are used alone or in combinations. Most disinfectants should have a label that lists the viruses they’re effective against. It is important to follow the recommended concentrations and precautionary measures. It is better to resort to the help of specialized services for more intensive disinfection.
