Technical Bulletin: RSV & Influenza A November 11, 2022 by EnvirOx Health officials have raised concerns about an early start to cold and flu season.¹ At the center of this is RSV (Respiratory syncytial virus) and Influenza A. Because of the risk of co-infection and even further complications from the merging of both viruses²—in addition to ongoing cases of COVID—we wanted to provide you with information on which of our products are effective against RSV and Influenza A. Please see the chart below for details. As always, per CDC guidelines, remember to always CLEAN and THEN DISINFECT. This removes dirt and debris first so the disinfectant can get to the virus. AND it helps remove any residue left behind by the last application of disinfectant. For more information about fighting the flu, be sure to check out our E-book. Although this was written a few years ago and is targeted at educational facilities, the basics are the same. You can download by clicking the image below or clicking this link.
