Health Alert

The World Health Organization (WHO) and the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued a notice regarding the recent Swine Influenza Virus A (H1N1) cases that have been reported in Mexico as well as the United States. The potential pandemic effect worldwide has created a concern for precautionary measures for people to take to limit the spread of this virus.

EPA has made a statement indicating they believe all currently registered products making influenza A virus claims will be effective against this H1N1 swine flu strain.

EPA believes, based on available scientific information, that the currently registered influenza A virus products will be effective against the 2009-H1N1 flu strain and other influenza A virus strains on hard, non-porous surfaces. For safe and effective use of these products, always follow the label instructions, paying special attention to the product’s dilution rate (if applicable) and contact time. As the CDC stresses, your first line of defense is to wash your hands frequently with soap and water. These registered disinfectant products are for use on hard, non-porous surfaces, not the skin.

Following is a list of Carroll Company products that contain Influenza A viruses kill claims.

• cleanworks #3
• cleanworks #9, cleanworks2 #9
• Multi Q
• Neutracide 64

See product label for organisms and proper use directions.
