Infectious Disease Disinfection Frequently Asked Questions in South End, Boston, MA
How do you kill coronavirus on surfaces?
Clean the surface first, then apply an EPA-registered disinfectant that lists the virus. Follow the label for contact time and any rinse step. Different surfaces, such as wood, fabric and electronics, need different products.
What are the methods of infection control?
Common methods include hand hygiene, protective equipment, cleaning and disinfection, ventilation and keeping sick people apart from others. Cleanup crews use several of them together when they decontaminate a space.
Does alcohol kill COVID?
Alcohol-based products can inactivate the virus when the alcohol content is high enough and the surface stays wet long enough. Many professional crews use EPA-registered disinfectants because the label shows the proven contact time and surfaces it is safe for.
Does hand sanitizer kill coronavirus?
Hand sanitizer is meant for skin, not for disinfecting surfaces. It may evaporate before the needed contact time and can damage some finishes. Use an EPA-registered surface disinfectant for counters, door handles and furniture.
When is commercial decontamination needed?
When illness has spread among employees, customers or residents, or when a manager needs documented cleaning before reopening. Commercial decontamination services handle shared rooms, equipment and restrooms in a set order.
Can soft items like couches and mattresses be disinfected?
Some can be treated if the label allows it, and washable items can be laundered. Heavily soiled or soaked items, especially ones with body fluids, are often removed and disposed of.
