Human Coronavirus (2019-nCoV)
About Coronavirus: What You Need to Know
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)

There are many different types of superbugs that have appeared in recent years, and they have achieved their status as ‘super’ by having developed resistance, and in some cases immunity, to traditional treatment with antibiotics. Since infections from superbugs can be extremely dangerous and even life-threatening to individuals who become infected, any potential threats at violent crime scenes need to be remediated by experts in the field.
Steri-Clean of Kansas maintains a team of trained professionals who are well-versed in eradicating the threat of superbug infections, and who can prevent this very real danger from being transferred to others. Three of the most common and most potent superbug infections are described below.
Clostridium Difficile (C. diff)
Clostridium difficile, or C. diff as it is commonly referred to, is a kind of bacteria that is found in the intestines of almost everyone, as one component of the normal bacteria population which lives in your body.
As long as the bacteria population stays in balance, there are no problems with Clostridium difficile, but when something disturbs that balance, these bacteria can go completely out of control, and depart wildly from their normal functionality.
When that happens, it releases toxins that attack the stomach lining, and cause a C. diff infection. One of the things that most commonly cause this kind of imbalance to occur is when a person uses antibiotics, either a single antibiotic for a long period of time or a broad-based antibiotic that treats a number of symptoms.
People with C. diff infections will often suffer from stomach pains, frequent (and severe) diarrhea, nausea, loss of appetite, fevers, and blood or pus in the stool. Every year, more than 500,000 people in this country become sick from Clostridium difficile, and the trend of recent years has seen this infection become much more frequent, a lot more severe, and much harder to treat.
All of these are signs that C. diff has become a superbug, and that it requires very special treatment by specialists, such as those from Steri-Clean, in order to prevent the spread of the infection. Treatment by specialists is also necessary to prevent the infection from getting any worse than it already has.
Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA)
MRSA is a staph infection that has developed a powerful resistance to methicillin, which was formerly the most effective antibiotic treatment against it. Over the years, however, the MRSA staph infection has evolved into a superbug that is resistant to that antibiotic, as well as most others. In fact, there are really a number of different strains of this staph infection, and each one has developed its own unique way of infecting victims, as well as defending itself against treatment in the form of antibiotics.
MRSA first appears on a victim in the form of small bumps on the skin, which become swollen and red, and usually become filled with pus. MRSA can easily spread from one person to another, and it is estimated that somewhere between 5% and 7% of the total U.S. population are actually carriers of this infection, although they may not exhibit symptoms themselves.
Some strains of this infection have the capability of spreading themselves to many other carriers, and they can actually trigger deadly infections in some people. Even those infections which are treatable with antibiotics have often been reported to recur in the same patient at some point after treatment.
Clearly, this superbug has developed into one which must be taken very seriously, and which must be handled by knowledgeable experts like the team members at Steri-Clean Kansas.
Influenza
While influenza is not often thought of as one of today’s superbugs, it certainly does have the ability to mutate into different strains to protect itself against any measures used to eradicate it. Particularly in school settings, the potential for influenza to be spread is tremendous, due to the sheer volume of students in attendance, the close contact which prevails in this kind of setting, and the likelihood that at least some individuals will have been exposed to the flu bug.
To protect your school against the spread of bacteria, which can sweep throughout the facility, the Steri-Clean Whole Room Disinfection System can provide the most comprehensive method of killing off bacteria and disinfecting the entire premises.
Its very affordable cost makes this flu-killing system one of the best investments your educational institution could make, considering the welfare of students, faculty, and all other inhabitants of the building. This cleaning approach gets into all the nooks and crannies of rooms that other methods just can’t manage, but at the same time, does absolutely no harm to any delicate or sensitive equipment, or other materials which may be in the classroom setting. The Steri-Clean Whole Room Disinfection System can remove human error from the cleaning of a classroom.
