A lack of hygiene can cost lives!

It is worth regularly cleaning and disinfecting items that people often touch.

The situation in hygiene-sensitive areas like hospitals, doctors’ practices and nursing homes is particularly critical. Pathogens are very frequently encountered here. Although it is absolutely essential to maintain hygiene standards, this often does not take place with the necessary care. A lack of time and human resources is often the reason for this. As many as 20,000 people die just from hospital germs in Germany every year.

People with a weak immune system are particularly at risk.

The German government’s central institution in the field of monitoring and preventing sicknesses specifically recommends that people purchase and use “special keyboards that can be disinfected” and has a link with a selection of products on its home page. These units must have “the relevant design,” according to the RKI.

To prevent invisible risk situations, it recommends the use of special hygienic keyboards and mice. Depending on the type of keyboard, it is possible to thoroughly clean and disinfect the keyboard and mouse unit because of an enclosed surface. It is then nearly impossible for any viruses and bacteria to gather there!
