PureGreen24 Meets CDCs Recommendation for Infection Control for Care of Patients with Swine Influenza A (H1N1) Virus in Homae and Healthcare Settings
Pure Green, LLC, distributors of PureGreen24, confirmed today that PureGreen24, powered by PURE Bioscience’s (NASDAQ: PURE) patented silver dihydrogen citrate (SDC) antimicrobial, meets the recommendations by the United States Centers for Disease Control (CDC) for infection control for care of patients with confirmed or suspected Swine Influenza A (H1N1) virus in both home and healthcare settings.
According to the CDC, human transmission of flu occurs through coughing or sneezing of people infected with the influenza virus. People may become infected by touching something with viruses on it and then touching their mouths or noses.
Guidance published by the CDC on April 24, 2009 for infection control in healthcare settings advises: “disinfection strategies used during influenza seasons can be applied to the environmental management of swine influenza.” Additional guidance published on April 25, 2009 for infection control in the home recommends keeping “surfaces (especially bedside tables, surfaces in the bathroom, and toys for children) clean by wiping them down with a household disinfectant according to directions on the product label.”
Pure Green’s disinfectant has been registered by the EPA specifically for use on toys, cribs, high chairs and other sensitive areas of the home as well as for use in multitudes of environments, including hospitals, schools and offices.
David Stetson, Co-Founder of Pure Green, LLC, stated, “PureGreen24 is effective against Influenza A. Should the current outbreak become pandemic, Pure Green has the capacity to react to the needs of federal and state governments, healthcare institutions, schools and consumers in the U.S. and Puerto Rico seeking to effectively stem the spread of swine flu.”
