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)

STERI-CLEAN® OREGON - Superbug Remediation
Superbugs are antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria that can be life threatening to humans. While there are many infectious diseases, C. Diff and MRSA are the most common. These bacteria often live on common surfaces, such as door handles and countertops, and must be cleaned properly to avoid reinfection. STERI-CLEAN® OREGON will disinfect all contaminated areas using EPA approved disinfectants and restore a safe environment.
C. Diff
C. Diff, or Clostridioides difficile (formerly Clostridium difficile ), is a strain of bacteria that causes an inflammation of the colon. According to the CDC (Center for Disease Control), C. Diff causes close to half a million illnesses each year and can affect people of all ages. Not only that, but one of five patients who have previously had C. Diff will be reinfected at some point.
C. Diff spreads when people touch everyday surfaces that are contaminated with fecal bacteria from an infected person, such as bathroom door handles. Since the spores are resistant to many commonly used cleaners, it is important to use spore-killing disinfectants to clean affected rooms and surfaces.
MRSA
MRSA, or methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, is a deadly bacteria that causes infection of the skin, and in severe cases, the bloodstream or organs. MRSA is easily spread through skin-to-skin contact with an infected person or contact with items infected with the bacteria, such as athletic equipment or towels. However, the bacteria can live for days on common surfaces as well. The best way to prevent the spread of MRSA is to have all affected areas cleaned.
STERI-CLEAN® OREGON will properly clean and disinfect all areas contaminated with C. Diff, MRSA, and other infectious disease using EPA approved, hospital grade disinfectants and eliminate concerns relating to the spread of bacteria and/or reinfection.
