Are you concerned about the recent outbreak of Ebola in the United States? If so, you are not alone. People all across the country, and indeed around the world, and concerned that what is currently a contained situation could easily get out of hand. For those living in NYC and Long Island, the reported October 23, 2014 case of Ebola confirmed in a Doctors Without Borders medical aid worker back from Guinea, hits a little too close to home. While the patient is in isolation (as of the time of writing), public health officials are conducting ongoing contact tracing and investigation—as reported by the Center for Disease Control (CDC).
Can anything be done to help ease the minds of worried New Yorkers? Moldbusters is offering commercial Ebola antimicrobial treatments, in an attempt to lessen the threat of Ebola and other threatening viruses in our local communities. These treatments are suitable for all public and private commercial facilities as a means of successfully eliminating 99.9% of germs and bacteria, while delivering three years of continuous protection to all surfaces within that facility.
What is the STAPH & MRSA Surface Antimicrobial Treatment?
Developed by the company Coating Specialists, the Surface Antimicrobial System (SAS) is a comprehensive antimicrobial service. It is powered by the high-performance antimicrobial product SurfaceAide ® 1000, a durable substance which has been used by some of the country’s most prominent health and public safety organizations to kill disease-causing microorganisms, including the H1N1 Flu Virus (“Swine Flu”), and MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). After application, it continues working to inhibit the growth of microbial contaminants. It is effective on a wide range of surfaces, and has been used on everything from baseball stadium dugouts to military bases.
In a climate of fear due to the spreading Ebola virus, major public, private, and government entities chose to be safe rather than sorry, and apply the Surface Antimicrobial Treatment offered by Moldbusters of Long Island: facilities such as hospitals, office buildings, airports, nursing facilities, and schools in NYC, Queens, Long Island, and surrounds. With just one application, the treatment proactively fights the growth of surface bacteria, fungi, and mold for a period of 1-3 years. The main advantage is its ability to kill 99.9% of germs and bacteria.
This means that even if someone who carries the Ebola virus leaves traces of the virus and/or bodily fluids, the treatment will effectively kill and prevent that virus from spreading. It ensures the safety of your facility, and of the general population.
Protect Your Facility against All Types of Illness and Infection
While Ebola is the most present threat in the consciousness of NYC and the United States at this time, seasonal changes also usher in new threats. The concern is that as citizens exhibit general flu-like symptoms, facilities around places like Long Island and Queens will have to shut down, and even quarantine individuals, until it can be established if that person is in fact infected with the Ebola virus. Early symptoms of the Ebola virus include fever, muscle pain, weakness, headaches, and a sore throat—surprisingly similar to a seasonal cold or flu. To minimize and avoid illness within your facility, apply the Surface Antimicrobial System, proven to kill the H1N1 Flu Virus, Hepatitis, MRSA, SARS, Mumps, Rhinovirus, and Rotavirus.
What Happens During a Moldbusters Antimicrobial Facility Treatment?
There are various phases of the actual Moldbusters antimicrobial treatment. First, all surfaces are meticulously disinfected and cleaned. Next, the antimicrobial treatment is applied, creating an invisible barrier on surfaces. It is strong and resilient, while non-toxic, environmentally friendly, and non-sensitizing to human skin. All applications are performed by certified Moldbusters applicators. A checkup occurs at the one-year mark, and the treatment is backed by a three-year warranty. There is no need to shut down your facility in order to apply the treatment—it can be integrated into facilities without interrupting regular operations. Since 2006, this technology has been applied over 40 million square feet of surfaces. The treatment will continue to gain popularity as we move towards a future of global interconnectedness, especially for use in public facilities, in regions with high population densities, and in places with international portals to entry—like LaGuardia Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport in Queens, NY—as threats such as Ebola spread between carriers and continents.
The Surface Antimicrobial System provides continuous protection of surfaces, against not only viruses, bacteria, and germs, but against all types of damage and contaminants—including but not limited to: mold, bacteria, mildew, algae, odor, staining, and even deterioration. The SAS process has been designed for all industries, including and especially those with NYC and Long Island health code standards to uphold, including the healthcare industry, hospitality industry, educational facilities, sports arenas, public and private transportation, and veterinary medicine.
