Steri-Clean has the only effective protocol and training to ELIMINATE the viruses from any environment. 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is a virus that affects the respiratory tract and is spread with person to person contact.
Symptoms: According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) reported illnesses have ranged from people with little to no symptoms to people being severely ill and dying. Symptoms may appear in as few as 2 days or as long as 14 after exposure. Symptoms can include: fever, cough and shortness of breath.
Prevention & Treatment
There is currently no vaccine to prevent 2019-nCoV Coronavirus infection. The CDC believes the best way to prevent infection is to avoid being exposed to the virus and recommends everyday preventative actions to help prevent from spreading:
• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands
• Avoid close contact with people who appear to be sick
• Stay at home if you are sick
• Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, throw the tissue in the trash, then wash your hands thoroughly
• Clean and apply disinfectant to commonly touched objects and surfaces (See next paragraph)

STERI-CLEAN® ARIZONA - Superbug Cleanup
Superbugs are named not because of their superpowers, but for their ability to be super resistant to antibiotics. Superbugs spread easy just by human touch or by touching an infected object which makes these little strains of bacteria so dangerous. There are many types of superbugs but the most common are Clostridioides difficile, better known as C-Diff and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus, or MRSA.
C-Diff
C-Diff is responsible for causing illness in half a million people each year, in the U.S. alone. Twenty percent of people who get C-Diff will get reinfected. It’s especially bad for people over 65 because almost 10 percent of them die within a month of the diagnosis. Those who are taking antibiotics, have recently been hospitalized, or who have a weakened immune system are more likely to get C-Diff.
C-Diff causes diarrhea and inflammation of the colon, referred to as colitis. Those infected get a fever, have pain in their stomach, don’t feel like eating, and are nauseous. Doctors can determine if symptoms are caused by C-Diff from lab tests. When these tests are positive, patients need to take antibiotics for 10 days. In severe cases, some patients need to be hospitalized.
MRSA
MRSA is transmitted in the same way as C-Diff. In the U.S., around 90,000 people get it every year, and of those, 22 percent will die from it; many of those deaths being children. Some of the most vulnerable to get MRSA are older adults, children, and those who have a weakened immune system.
MRSA starts with a skin infection and people often notice a small bump that looks like a pimple or spider bite. More bumps continue to appear under the skin, usually underneath the hair. A fever soon develops, the person experiences chills and a severe headache, and pus-filled blisters begin to appear. Treatment includes draining the pus-filled blisters and getting on a regimen of antibiotics for up to 14 days.
A professional biohazard cleaning company like STERI-CLEAN® ARIZONA can eliminate these superbugs by decontaminating infected areas and creating a safe, clean environment.
