New COVID-19 air filters coming to Baytown
Leaders in Baytown will show off new air filters Monday, and manufacturers say these filters can help kill the virus that causes COVID-19.
New Results from Study: Sub-second heat inactivation of coronavirus
Three coronaviruses (CoVs) have now caused global outbreaks within the past 20 years, with the COVID19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 still ongoing. Methods that can rapidly inactivate viruses, especially CoVs, can play critical roles in ensuring public safety and safeguarding personal health. Heat treatment of viruses to inactivate them can be an efficient and inexpensive method, with the potential to be incorporated into various human-occupied spaces.
CDC Confirms COVID-19 Airborne Transmission
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) on October 5, confirmed that COVID-19 can be transmitted via airborne means, and a group of U.S. scientists more strongly warned in the medical journal Science, that aerosols lingering in the air could be a major source of COVID-19 transmission, IVP is seeing an uptick in demand.
Long-distance airborne dispersal of SARS-CoV-2 in COVID-19 wards
Evidence suggests that SARS-CoV-2, as well as other coronaviruses, can be dispersed and potentially transmitted by aerosols directly or via ventilation systems. We therefore investigated ventilation openings in one COVID-19 ward and central ducts that expel indoor air from three COVID-19 wards at Uppsala University Hospital, Sweden, during April and May 2020. Swab samples were taken from individual ceiling ventilation openings and surfaces in central ducts. Samples were subsequently subjected to rRT-PCR targeting the N and E genes of SARS-CoV-2
Galveston ISD installs more than 200 air filters at its schools that can kill COVID19
Galveston ISD plans to install more than 200 new air filtration units in all 12 of its schools, which will be aimed to decrease the risk and spread of COVID-19.
Intercontinental Hotels Group (IHG) says it is installing Integrated Viral Protection (IVP) Air technology, a heated filter that the company claims can destroy airborne pathogens, in its InterContinental Houston – Medical Center property.
Integrated Viral Protection (IVP) Air announces first hotel, convention center, health science center, health facilities, and schools equipped with BIODEFENSE INDOOR AIR PROTECTION SYSTEM™ designed to instantly eliminate 99.999% of airborne coronavirus.
Sept. 14, 2020 -- Post Acute Medical, LLC (PAM) announced today that it has deployed Integrated Viral Protection's (IVP) indoor biodefense system at three of its specialty hospital locations in Las Vegas, Nevada, Victoria, Texas, and San Antonio, Texas as part of the company's commitment to delivering important health services safely.
While there are many air purification devices on the market, the Biodefense Indoor Air
Protection System™ is the only device proven to destroy airborne SARS-CoV-2, the virus
that causes COVID-19 (99.999%) instantaneously, in a single pass.
