The Coronavirus that causes COVID-19 is mainly transmitted through aerosols/droplets generated when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or exhales. Especially when those aerosols are in non-ventilated areas, they can create problems. You can be infected by breathing in the virus if you are within proximity of someone who has COVID-19, or by touching a contaminated surface and then your eyes, nose, or mouth. Cleaning and disinfection

Cleaning and disinfecting are two different processes:

• Cleaning means physically removing germs, dirt and organic matter from surfaces.
• Disinfecting means using chemicals to kill germs on surfaces. It’s important to clean before disinfecting because organic matter and dirt can reduce the ability of disinfectants to kill germs.

A combination of cleaning and disinfection will be most effective in removing the COVID-19 virus. Cleaning reduces the soil load on the surface, allowing the disinfectant to work and kill the COVID-19 virus. The disinfectant may not kill the virus if the surface has not been cleaned with a detergent first.
