How to Protect Against the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Outbreak With AGI’s Priority Sanitization, Disinfection, and Sterilization Services

As the world scrambles to find answers amid the COVID-19 outbreak, we felt it necessary to share some of our experience in virus sanitization, disinfection, and sterilization in an effort to answer questions and provide some reassurance.

While the novel coronavirus is new by name and definition, AGI has been at the forefront of forensic sanitization, disinfection, and sterilization for nearly 20 years, and currently operates in more than 20 countries.

CORONA VIRUS SANITIZATION

Given AGI’s expertise in sanitization, disinfection, and sterilization services around the world, we have received many requests to help the wider residential and commercial market during the COVID-19 crisis.

For that reason, we would like to make our Priority Coronavirus Sanitization, Disinfection, and Sterilization Service available to the general residential and commercial sectors, in an effort to help keep staff and families safe.

Before we explain how AGI’s Priority Coronavirus Sanitization, Disinfection, and Sterilization Service works, let’s give a background on how viruses spread, and how to eradicate them.

CORONA VIRUS SANITIZATION

How Does COVID-19 Spread in a Workplace?

From Harvard Medical School:

“Droplets that are produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes may land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby, or possibly be inhaled into their lungs. 

Coronavirus can also spread from contact with infected surfaces or objects. For example, a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the coronavirus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes.”

And from the Journal of Hospital Infection:

 “On different types of materials it can remain infectious for from 2 hours up to 9 days.”

So essentially this highly contagious virus will stay on most work surfaces for up to 9 days, which is a problem for any business that has commonly touched surfaces, whether it be a desk or a coffee maker.
