Covid News—-

With the current outbreak of COVID-19, frequently cleaning and disinfecting your home is essential for keeping yourself and your family safe and healthy.
While person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 poses a much greater risk than transmission via surfaces, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends cleaning and disinfecting high-touch surfaces at least once a day.
A recent study found that the novel coronavirus can remain in the air for up to three hours and live on surfaces such as cardboard for up to 24 hours, and plastic and stainless steel for up to three days.

Frequently cleaning and disinfecting your home against COVID-19 is essential for keeping yourself and your family safe and healthy.

Covid Car Tips

You want to disinfect all the “high-touch” surfaces, including the obvious ones like the steering wheel and centre touchscreen. But you might not realize just how much you touch.

This includes the door handles, inside and outside, and the grab handle to close the door; the key fob; the turn signal and wiper stalks; shift lever; starter button; lock, window, and power mirror switches; and the seat adjusters, whether power- or manually-adjustable.

Clean all buttons, dials and switches, including for the climate control and stereo. Flat surfaces such as the dash, console, armrest, and door pads should also be cleaned. And here’s one you might forget: the rearview mirror. If you’ve adjusted it, you’ve touched it.

Ventilation – Increasing ventilation (e.g., opening windows when weather permits) may help to reduce transmission. Although evidence is limited as to its effectiveness for COVID-19 prevention, this is a best practice for other respiratory infectious diseases.

Covid Cleaning Tips

Surfaces include money/cash, doorknobs, handrails, elevator buttons, light switches, cabinet handles, faucet handles, tables, countertops and electronics. In child and youth settings, such surfaces may also include toys and play/sports equipment.

In addition to routine cleaning, these high-touch surfaces and shared spaces such as kitchens and bathrooms should be cleaned and disinfected more often, as well as when visibly dirty. Items that cannot be easily cleaned (e.g., newspapers, magazines, stuffed toys) should be removed.

Cleaning and disinfecting

Cleaning your home with household cleaning and disinfectant products can help prevent the spread of illness including COVID-19.
In your home

Regular cleaning and disinfecting can help prevent the spread of illness including COVID-19. Frequently touched surfaces such as toilets, sink tap handles, doorknobs, light switches, and tables should be cleaned at least daily. Other less frequently touched surfaces should be cleaned regularly when visibly dirty. Make sure to clean surfaces with soap or detergent before disinfecting. The virus that causes COVID-19 can be broken down by soaps and detergents as well as appropriate disinfectants. Cleaning and disinfecting is a simple, effective, two-step process that is described below.

Step 1: Clean away dirt, crumbs etc.

Use soapy water to wipe away dirt, soils and other debris. Plain dish soap or any kind of household cleaning product will remove dirt, oils and other debris from surfaces.

Step 2: Disinfect

If possible, use store-bought disinfectants. Familiar brands such as Clorox, Lysol, Fantastik, Microban and Zep have specific products that will work against the COVID-19 virus. Please check the Health Canada’s list of approved products. If your product is not on the list, it has not been approved for this use.

If store-bought disinfectants are not available, you can mix household bleach with room temperature water (do not use hot water) in specific ratios to disinfect areas in your home. Household bleach should be diluted. It comes in different concentrations so check your label first before you mix (see information in table below).

Rinsing and drying recommendations are important parts of the disinfection process. For high-touch or heavily soiled areas such as toilets and sinks, leave 1000 ppm bleach solutions wet for one minute before wiping down the surface with a cloth soaked in clean water. Other bleach solutions of 500 ppm should be left wet for five minutes then air drying is fine. The table below provides more details.

Diluting bleach

The directions below use bleach that is 5.25%. For other concentrations please use the Foodsafe bleach calculator.

Bleach solutions may be used in spray bottles or wiped onto surfaces and other items. Bleach and water mixtures are effective for 24 hours so only make as much as you need.

Cleaning your home with household cleaning and disinfectant products can help prevent the spread of illness including COVID-19.
