A protective shelter is only as effective as its ability to prevent potentially harmful airborne threats. For those who depend on these structures, containment is essential, but equally important is a shelter’s ability to eliminate possible contaminants that can lead to the transmission of disease.
SteriSpace can even eliminate environmental pollutants, VOCs, and select industrial chemicals. When human lives are at stake, above all else, shelters need to have an answer for providing protection in the face of chemical or biological attacks. Because bio-threats can often be invisible, it is critical that shelters can sterilize the air in the event of a containment breach.
The American Lung Association is holding their LUNG FORCE Walk again this year! After a brief hiatus because of the coronavirus pandemic, the walk will be held on September 11, 2021, at Buffalo Harbor State Park. This year is special in another way as well. Two companies under the You First Services Inc. umbrella are sponsoring this event, too! SteriSpace and Lubricity ahve teamed up with the ALA.
Masks, social distancing, washing our hands, not going into crowded areas or events, even going as far as wiping down groceries before putting them away, are all adequate solutions to fight covid; however, this is an airborne virus. Have you ever thought about starting at the source? Sterilizing the air around you to ensure a safe environment?
According to guidance provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), it is important to make multiple improvements to building ventilation to reduce the spread of disease and lower the risk of exposure. In addition to these improvements, physical distancing, wearing face masks, hand hygiene and vaccination should be considered contributing factors in stopping the spread. It is important we separate fact from fiction when understanding how the virus spreads related to HVAC systems and the measures we can take to avoid infection.
What we know about how COVID-19 spreads is constantly developing, and as a result, public health guidance will continue to evolve. In the meantime, it is important to follow valid resources that include the World Health Organization and the CDC when researching COVID-19.
