But that's not going to happen! We can only have disease-controlled world.
Terrifying news accounts of recent deaths from COVID-19 coupled with the past news of Ebola, and HIV/AIDS can give the misleading impression that we are at greater risk than ever. But we are fortunate to live in a time when—thanks to scientific advances that have produced lifesaving vaccines and treatments—we can actually begin to imagine a disease-free world.
.
Washing of hands may not as too necessary only if the most commonly places are infection free, and using of face mask also may not be too important if the environmental air is safe for inhaling.
Back in 2002, when the SARS virus made its fateful leap from bats to civet cats to humans, global health experts warned that the ensuing outbreak was a harbinger of things to come: Climate change and globalization were conspiring with an array of other forces to make it much easier for old animal diseases to morph into new human ones. It was only a matter of time before one of those diseases proved truly catastrophic. The world could avert the worst consequences if it started planning.
But SARS was quickly contained (in part because the virus itself was so deadly that it was easy to detect). The disease faded from public consciousness and, with it, any sense of urgency over future outbreaks.
In 2009, when swine flu first emerged in the United States — scientists later traced the virus to pig farms in Mexico — experts warned again that a longer-term game plan was needed, one that was proactive rather than reactive. Again, headlines and hand-wringing followed. Again, the outbreak proved mild and passed quickly. Again, the world and its leaders moved on without heeding the warnings.
The panic-then-forget cycle was broken briefly in 2014, when Ebola tore through West Africa. Here we are again. In December 2020, another new virus — SARS-CoV-2 — made the leap from animals to humans. It has now infected hundreds of thousands of people across more than 50 countries with the alarming death rate records. Global health experts are once again sounding the alarm. It’s unclear how bad things might get this time around. Covid-19, the disease caused by this new virus, appears to be between seven and 20 times more deadly than seasonal flu, which on average kills between 300,000 and 650,000 people globally each year. But that fatality rate could prove to be much lower, especially if it turns out that many milder cases have evaded detection. (especially if the preventive and controlled measures are properly put in place.
As at today, the best advice WHO can give to the people is to maintain social distancing, wash hands, use face mask, and avoid touching of eyes and nose. But from our perspectives, more precaution needs to be added to these. Washing of hands may not as too necessary only if the most commonly places are infection free, and using of face mask also may not be too important if the environmental air is safe for inhaling. This is where GREENAID comes in, to address the unaddressed areas in order to complement the ideas of WHO towards having a virus free society. As much as washing of hands and using of face mask is needed, so also is disinfecting surfaces and decontaminating environmental air.
Many have continued to sanitize their hands, but no one care to disinfect the daily touchable objects around them that contaminate these hands and the air breathing in on daily basis. It is a fact that we spend 90% of our time indoors. It is important to know that indoor air quality is often much worse than outdoor air quality. This is hard to believe, considering all the toxic fumes come from factories, machines, and automobiles. The air outside, without question, can be very heavily polluted, especially on high ozone days in hot weather and in urban areas with heavy traffic. Natural processes such as carbon dioxide being consumed by plants, constantly moving air, electric thunderstorms, ultraviolet rays from the sun, etc., help to keep outdoor air clean. Indoor air, especially in well-insulated homes, not only has no place to go but can often be filled with dangerous contaminants and allergens.
Despite all the bad news, the good news is that you can take effective measures to greatly reduce the toxicity of the air you breathe indoors; the process starts by disinfecting the air. GREENAID solution is non-toxic and compatible with both human and animals; economic-friendly and eco-friendly. Can serve as cleaning, disinfecting, sanitizing and deodorizing solution. Applicable on the visible surfaces around and the invisible air around us through misting process.
