From The Daily Free Press The City of Boston is well prepared to deal with H1N1 influenza and seasonal flu this fall, but people should be more cautious and informed about ways to prevent flu, city public health officials said Monday.Representatives from Boston Public Health Commission and Boston Public Schools spoke about the precautions the city is taking regarding H1N1 influenza at a hearing at Freedom House in Dorchester. City Councilor-At-Large John Connolly and City Councilor Charles Yancey of the Committee on Environment and Health and City Councilor Chuck Turner held the hearing. “We must take this very seriously,” Yancey said. “Far too many people in the city are not taking this seriously.” Barbara Ferrer, executive director of BPHC, said approximately 23,000 people have been infected with flu since the spring, and there have been five deaths from H1N1 out of 450 confirmed cases reported in the city of Boston. Swine flu, as opposed to seasonal flu, has a tendency to strike in young people, she said. “This is different from the patterns we usually see in seasonal flu,” she said. “For other flu, the ill and hospitalized are elderly. We see a lot of [sick] people that are younger.” In Boston, an estimated 11 percent of all adolescents contracted swine flu in the spring, Ferrer said. Children younger than 18 years old made up 64 percent of flu victims in the city. “Schools are particularly hard hit,” she said. “We closed 20 schools in the city because they weren’t able to operate safely.” The pandemic also appears to have a bigger impact on Hispanics and blacks, Ferrer said. Thirty-seven percent of all swine flu cases occurred in black people, although black people comprise only about 26 percent of Boston’s total population. One-third of all confirmed cases were seen in the Latino population. Overall, almost three-fourths of people hospitalized for the virus in Boston have been either black or Hispanic, Ferrer said. “In Boston, people who did end up being hospitalized, 50 had asthma, and residents of color are more likely to have asthma,” she said. She said although the flu has become more prevalent with fall, the City of Boston has thorough measures in place to handle any outbreak. “We are very well prepared for that,” she said. “We have been working for years, actually, on plans about what to do if there was an overwhelming number of people who needed to seek care at the same time.” Boston school officials said school policies have also changed, as fewer than half as many people are now seeking treatment as in spring. “Schools are encouraged to go about the business of education,” Carolyn Riley, senior director of Special Education for BPS, said in a NECN news video of the hearing. “School closings are not recommended.” To prevent flu, Ferrer encouraged people to wash hands frequently, cover their noses and mouths with a tissue when coughing and try to avoid close contact with others if possible, such as shaking hands and hugging. “It’s good to modify these activities when we are facing an outbreak,” she said. Director of the Infectious Disease Bureau Anita Barry offered advice for college students in an interview before the hearing. She said although the H1N1 vaccine currently isn’t largely available, students should seek it out as soon as it is. “The vaccine is slowly becoming available,” she said. “We expect there’ll be a larger amount [of vaccine production] sometime towards the end of November. But it’s important to remember that we recommend flu vaccination up until April.” Barry also said students should be careful when going to parties, where personal space is limited and people tend to share cups. “You need to make it some kind of a trend that everyone uses their own cups,” she said. “And if you aren’t feeling well, stay away from parties.” Harvard University freshman Ben Blatt, one of the few civilian attendees at the hearing, said he’s not too worried about the flu. “I haven’t gotten the flu shot or anything, although they offered it,” he said. “I’m not that terribly concerned.” Don't forget you can also use our Alcohol-Free Hand Sanitizer on a regular basis and decontaminate infected rooms in homes, schools, and offices with our Dephyze Decon 3D chemical decontamination that is completely safe after only four hours. No need to close schools or offices to remain safe from H1N1 and the other flu viruses.Labels: commercial cleaning, H1N1 Swine Flu, Hand Sanitizer, Prevent Flu Infection, school cleaning

Here are our top 10 tips to boost your immunity, stay healthy, and prevent H1N1 Swine Flu this flu season.1. Optimize your vitamin D level. Adequate levels of vitamin D are essential for our immune systems to function optimally. Unfortunately there are no significant dietary sources of vitamin D, most of our intake comes from exposure to sunlight. If you live far from the equator, you simply don’t get enough sun through Fall and Winter to make all the vitamin D you need. So unless you supplement during this period, your innate immunity will be compromised. vitamin D plays such a crucial role in so many aspects of your body’s functioning, that supplementing with it makes sense whether you decide to get the flu shot or not.
The current recommendations from the Food and Nutrition Board of the U.S. Institute of Medicine: from 200 to 600 IU/day depending on one’s age, are way too low. Although the current normal range is between 20 and 50ng/ml, this is much too low for optimal health. You want your level to be between 50 and 70ng/ml.
This is the most important step you can take to prevent the flu! It may require a number of months taking 5,000 to 10,000 IU of vitamin D3 daily (especially during winter) under a doctor’s supervision, to optimize your blood level. Monitor your 25 hydroxy vitamin D status every three months until you are in the optimal range, then cut back to a maintenance dose of at least 2,000 IU a day.
2. Get adequate sleep. This is an indispensable requirement for a strong immune system.
3. Get adequate exercise. This keeps you robust.
4. Take actions to lower your stress levels. Do breathing exercises, meditate, practice yoga, spend time doing something that makes you happy. Feeling spent, overwhelmed and or mentally run down has a causal relationship to your physical health.
5. Wash your hands frequently but not excessively. It decreases your likelihood of spreading a virus to your nose, mouth or other people. Be sure you don’t use antibacterial soap because of the risk of creating resistant bacteria. Rather use a simple alcohol-free hand sanitizer.
6. Watch what you eat. Avoid sugar and processed foods as they decrease your immune function dramatically. Eat phytonutrient rich meals (lots of colorful salads and dark greens). Eat lots of garlic, it works as a broad spectrum antibiotic.
Keep a supply of antiviral herbal supplements on hand. As opposed to antiviral drugs, antiviral herbs do not cause resistant strains because they are multifaceted and contain literally thousands of different medicinal compounds. Thus they are able to attack viruses with a full spectrum of synergistic substances. Andrographis, Olive leaf extract, Grapefruit seed extract and Elderberry extract all have antiviral properties. Use one or a combination of some of them as a prophylactic measure, for example, whenever you travel (airports) or enter a potentially compromised environment such as a large office, auditorium, stadium, theater etc.
7. Take a probiotic daily (look for one with 10-20 billion organisms). A strong immune system relies heavily on having a strong foundation in the gut.
8. Keep homeopathic Oscillococcinum on hand. Take it at the earliest sign of a cold or flu as early intervention is essential. If you are exposed to someone with the flu directly, you can take one dose twice a day for two days. You can also take one vial once a week throughout the winter, and two or three times a week during flu season, as a preventative measure.
9. Clean your home and office with an effective multi-purpose cleaner. There is is an entirely new class of extremely safe, non-toxic, ultra powerful antimicrobial disinfectants and chemical decontaminants that kills bacteria, viruses, spores, molds, and fungus with unprecedented efficacy (99.999%) of common household germs that cause colds, flu, and food poisoning, and other health risks. For a safe and truly clean home, use DepHyze™ Ultra Clean All Purpose Cleaner.
10. Decontaminate the air in infected locations, rooms, ducts, and more. DepHyze™ Decon 3D is the world's most advanced antimicrobial / decontaminant. Decon 3D eradicates bacteria, viruses, spores, molds and fungus to 99.99999% and neutralizes toxic chemicals immediately, while being totally biodegradable and safe enough for household use. DepHyze™ Decon 3D offers top-to-bottom disinfection, decontamination, de-molding and mold prevention of commercial buildings and homes in an easy to use two-part formula.

Keeping schools clean and open has become a top priority of education officials across the country, especially amidst the spread of the H1N1 virus (a.k.a., "Swine Flu"). Still, many school districts have been forced to close their doors and disinfect their buildings due to high illness absenteeism among faculty, staff and students. Examples include: - Huntsville, Texas -- School officials reportedly employed cleaning crews to disinfect all door knobs, desks, tabletops and handles during a shutdown expected to last at least 48 hours.
- Manning, S.C. -- School officials are said to have spent five days disinfecting the entire school, including wiping down walls, desks, counters, toilets and anything else students might touch.
A four-week school closure would cost districts somewhere between $140 and $630 per student, depending upon location, according to report cited in a Los Angeles Times article today. On top of those costs, additional costs are incurred by employers and employees via unscheduled absences. A 2008 survey conducted by Mercer for the workforce management company Kronos® revealed that a company with a $50 million payroll (i.e., 1,000 employees earning average annual salaries of $50,000 each) will spend $4.5 million annually — or 9 percent of payroll — on unplanned incidental and extended employee absences.  But there are ways to fight back. The easiest way for school officials to begin preparing for such an outbreak is by making Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer available to faculty, staff and students. An extremely-safe, effective, non-irritating, non-flammable and non-staining alternative to alcohol-based hand sanitizer, Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer comes without the liability and risk concerns of alcohol-based hand sanitizers that prompted University of Michigan officials to ban it from dispensers on campus (details here). After installing wall-mounted dispensers, a thorough top-to-bottom cleaning needs to take place. That should, at a minimum, include the following:- Treating all carpets within school buildings with DepHyze™ Carpet Cleaner to ensure you not only clean your carpets effectively, but that you also eliminate odors through 100 percent true chemical negation (not masking);
- Using DepHyze™ Decon 3D, an ultra-powerful cleaner and disinfectant to thoroughly clean your entire school building and then use it once monthly thereafter;
- If you have a laundry facility within your school, using DepHyze™ Laundry Detergent, a cold-water, energy-saving product, to wash all machine-washable clothing, uniforms and linens at least once every two to three loads.
The products listed above, which offer up to an unsurpassed 99.99999 percent efficacy, can help school officials take care of the most-challenging and unwanted schoolhouse visitors -- bacteria, germs, mold, viruses, etc. Best of all, they're available today from CLEANpHIRST™.

The Department of Homeland Security has developed the following 10 tips to help employers protect employees from H1N1 flu (a.k.a., "Swine Flu"). The recommendations below are part of the department's Planning for 2009 H1N1 Influenza: A Preparedness Guide for Small Business: 1. Develop policies that encourage ill workers to stay at home without fear of any reprisals. 2. Develop other flexible policies to allow workers to telecommute (if feasible) and create other leave policies to allow workers to stay home to care for sick family members or care for children if schools close. 3. Provide resources and a work environment that promotes personal hygiene. For example, provide tissues, no-touch trash cans, hand soap, hand sanitizer, disinfectants and disposable towels for workers to clean their work surfaces. 4. Provide education and training materials in an easy to understand format and in the appropriate language and literacy level for all employees. 5. Instruct employees who are well but who have an ill family member at home with the flu that they can go to work as usual. These employees should monitor their health every day, and notify their supervisor and stay home if they become ill. Employees who have a certain underlying medical condition or who are pregnant should promptly call their health care provider for advice if they become ill. 6. Encourage workers to obtain a seasonal influenza vaccine, if it is appropriate for them according to CDC recommendations. This helps to prevent illness from seasonal influenza strains that may circulate at the same time as the 2009 H1N1 flu. 7. Encourage employees to get the 2009 H1N1 vaccine when it becomes available (expected in October) if they are in a priority group according to CDC recommendations. Consider granting employees time off from work to get vaccinated when the vaccine is available in your community. 8. Provide workers with up-to-date information on influenza risk factors , protective behaviors, and instruction on proper behaviors (for example, cough etiquette; avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth; and hand hygiene). 9. Plan to implement practices to minimize face-to-face contact between workers if advised by the local health department. Consider the use of such strategies as extended use of e-mail, websites and teleconferences, encouraging flexible work arrangements (for example, telecommuting or flexible work hours) to reduce the number of workers who must be at the work site at the same time or in one specific location. 10. If an employee does become sick while at work , place the employee in a separate room or area until they can go home, away from other workers. If the employee needs to go into a common area prior to leaving, he or she should cover coughs/sneezes with a tissue or wear a face mask if available and tolerable. Ask the employee to go home as soon as possible. If something in item #3 above jumped out at you, perhaps you need to get your hands on an extremely-safe, effective, non-irritating, non-flammable and non-staining alternative to alcohol-based hand sanitizer. Perhaps, you need Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer.If you're a mobile employee or employ people who travel a lot, you might want to purchase our hand sanitizer in convenient, 1.7-oz. travel-size dispensers like the ones shown above. Each provides 125 applications. [Note: Compare that to only 39 applications from a 2-oz. dispenser of the leading alcohol-based gels.]If you need wall-mounted dispensers for your office, warehouse or other work area(s), you can purchase wall-mounted dispensers (right) that deliver a whopping 2,375 applications per bladder. Does CLEANpHIRST work as well as the leading alcohol-based hand sanitizers? And how! CLEANpHIRST kills well beyond the level of the leading brands (i.e., 99.999 percent kill rate against Staphylococcus aureus) and is the only hand sanitizer proven effective against both strains of Norovirus (a.k.a., “The Cruise Ship Virus”), the gastrointestinal virus common on cruise ships, in nursing homes and in other high-density people centers. Best of all, it provides up to 30 minutes of protection on the skin — compared to only 10 seconds for alcohol-based products.

While a CDC-conducted survey of cruise ship passengers concluded that identification of public hand sanitizer dispensing locations could help reduce the number of people impacted by Norovirus, the best thing a seafaring vacationer can do in an effort to avoid the gastrointestinal bug known as “the Cruise Ship Virus” is to pack a supply of Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer. The only hand sanitizer on the market proven to kill both strains of Norovirus, Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer is an extremely-safe, effective, non-irritating, non-flammable and non-staining alternative to alcohol-based hand sanitizers. In addition, it kills well beyond the level of the leading alcohol-based hand sanitizers on the market (i.e., 99.999 percent kill rate against Staphylococcus aureus).  Unlike other hand sanitizer products containing BZK, Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer maximizes its effectiveness via the use of a unique patent-pending surfactant package that allows the active ingredient to penetrate cell walls at a higher rate and without alcohol, an ingredient that dries out the skin and can damage the skin with repeated use. Order a six-pack of Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer today for only $30, and we’ll include shipping to any location within the continental U.S. absolutely free! That’s 750 applications — enough to last you almost six months at 5 applications per day.

University of Pennsylvania researchers concluded in a study (pdf) seven years ago that a simple education program about hand washing, combined with the use of an alcohol-based hand sanitizer, resulted in 50.6 percent lower absenteeism among elementary school students and could save a school $167 per student per year. In light of the fact that his company offers an alcohol-free hand sanitizer product proven three times more effective than other products now on the market and far more advanced than products on the market at the time the study was conducted, numbers like those cited above keep Lance Albritton motivated. A father of two youngsters and president and founder of St. Louis-based CLEANpHIRST™, Albritton cites them each time he visits with school officials about the values and benefits of products offered by his company, CLEANpHIRST™.
‘While it comes as no surprise to most people that researchers determined hand washing to be one of the most important factors in controlling the spread of diseases which lead to absenteeism,” Albritton said, “the role hand sanitizers can play in reducing absenteeism and lowering expenses comes as more of a shock. “While $167 a day was a lot of money in 2002, it’s still a lot of money today, Albritton noted, “and I’m willing to bet that the per-student per-day figures cited in the study would increase if a new study was conducted today.”
 Another study published in the American Journal of Infection Control revealed that the combination of hand washing and the use of hand sanitizer decreased teacher absenteeism by 10.1 percent in a school with 246 teachers on staff.
Is Albritton willing to say that, because his company’s Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer more effective than alcohol-based hand sanitizers, that schools deploying it for use in classrooms, cafeterias and athletic facilities will see absenteeism plummet? Not quite, but he does point out some key benefits many studies miss.
“While many studies highlight the benefits of hand sanitizer use,” Albritton said, “they don’t point out one of the most-important differences between alcohol-based hand sanitizers like the one used in the study and alcohol-free products like the one we offer at CLEANpHIRST™ — safety.” Albritton went on to share some interesting facts about alcohol:
- Your average beer contains 4 to 8 percent alcohol by volume;
- Your average hard liquor contains 40 percent alcohol by volume; and
- Your average alcohol-based hand sanitizer contains somewhere between 62 and 95 percent alcohol by volume and, unlike beer and liquor, can be purchased by children of any age.
“Alcohol-based hand sanitizers like the product used in the study pose not only a serious health risk to students who might accidentally or intentionally ingest them because they contain a minimum of 62 percent alcohol,” Albritton explained, adding “In addition, they pose fire risks so great that some municipal fire codes do not allow wall-mounted dispensers containing alcohol-based hand sanitizer near egress pathways in public buildings.” To learn more a bout Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer or place an order, click here.

 At St. Louis-based CLEANpHIRST™, we are so convinced that people will love Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer if they simply give it a try, we’re willing to give away free wall-mounted dispensers of the product to the first 100 people who contact us on behalf of a child care facility they own or operate in the continental United States [See "FREE OFFER GUIDELINES" at end of post]. The package we provide will include a wall-mounted dispenser and approximately 2,375 applications of Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer, a product that stands as an extremely-safe, effective, non-irritating, non-flammable, non-staining alternative to alcohol-based hand sanitizers. What makes Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer so special? In part, it’s the fact that Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer kills well beyond the level of the leading alcohol-based hand sanitizers on the market (i.e., 99.999 percent kill rate against Staphylococcus aureus). It’s also the only formula on the market proven effective against both strains of the Norovirus. In addition, the active ingredient in Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer, benzalkonium chloride (BZK), has been proven effective against H1N1 (a.k.a.,”Swine Flu”) in a scientific study conducted two years ago. Unlike other hand sanitizer products containing BZK, Alcohol-Free Foam Hand Sanitizer maximizes its effectiveness via the use of a unique surfactant package that allows the active ingredient to penetrate cell walls at a higher rate. Best of all, it does it without alcohol, an ingredient that dries out the skin and can damage the skin with repeated use. ~ FREE OFFER GUIDELINES ~

 One approach to running a business involves encouraging employees to get healthy if they’re not already and to stay healthy. It’s called wellness and many companies think they’re doing enough. With concerns about a Swine Flu outbreak hitting this fall, businesses can’t afford to leave well(ness) enough alone. Advocates of corporate wellness programs often cite the adage, “A healthy employee is a happy employee,” and it’s not uncommon to hear phrases such as “increased productivity,” “high return on investment,” and “more affordable health insurance premiums” during a conversation on the subject. Their programs address diet, exercise and the need for regular medical checkups. Unfortunately, however, many corporate wellness program directors fail to address environmental factors. And the results of such an omission can be hazardous to a company’s health (a.k.a., “bottom line”).
Frequent and regular cleaning of the corporate environment must take place as part of every corporate wellness program — but not with bleach or other decades-old cleaning products that are ineffective against today’s crop of bacteria, germs and viruses. Instead, the cleaning effort must involve the most-effective cleaning solutions available.
CLEANpHIRST™ offers those solutions in a new class of cleaning products, several of which deliver up to “7 log” efficacy (99.99999 percent kill rate) against even the worst bacteria, mold, mildew and viruses. In short, they perform at levels of effectiveness thousands of times greater than the products you’re probably using now. [Note: You might want to check the labels of the products you keep in your supply area. More than likely, they offer only 99.9% to 99.99% efficacy. Not enough.] The average American worker misses 5.3 days each year due to illness, according to recent reports, and that number is likely to increase if a Swine Flu outbreak materializes as many experts predict it will.
Don’t put yourself in the position of knowing you could have done more to help your company stay well this fall. Contact CLEANpHIRST™. Labels: cleanphirst, commercial cleaning, H1N1 Swine Flu

While only 1 in 10 Americans surveyed claimed to be very worried about H1N1 flu (a.k.a., “Swine Flu”), 93 percent are taking or planning to take at least one action to guard against this new flu, according to results of a recent American Red Cross poll made public in a news release this morning. Arguably the best actions Americans can take, however, is a thorough, top-to-bottom cleaning of their homes, schools, athletic facilities and workplaces using products containing DepHyze™ cleaning technology. Available in products from CLEANpHIRST™, DepHyze™ technology was developed from a base formula originally developed at Sandia National Laboratories as a solution to the military’s need to neutralize chemical and biological weapons. Subsequent to the first Gulf War, SNL commercially licensed the formula to private-sector companies, including Aurora, Colo.-based Tionicon™. Charlie Talley, the lead chemist for Tionicon™, was one of the first scientists to understand the potential of the base formula and conducted a decade’s worth of research to prove its capability for numerous commercial applications. Those capabilities, as offered in one of the company’s premier products, DepHyze™ Decon 3D, include the following: - Extraordinary Effectiveness – A two-part product, DepHyze™ Decon 3D has the potential to reach “7 Log” efficacy ratings — or 99.99999% kill rates against the most-potent “superbugs”. In comparison, the leading mass-marketed commercial cleaning products are limited to 3 Log (99.9%) or 4 Log (99.99%) effectiveness — vastly inferior in the world of microorganisms where reproduction rates are factored exponentially.
- Residual Killing Effect – Substrates that have been cleaned with DepHyze™ Decon 3D will maintain a sterile surface for long periods and keep killing over time. For example, an interior ceiling or wall treated with DepHyze™ Decon 3D and not routinely cleaned or abraded can demonstrate residual killing ability for more than two years!
- Non-toxic – Even though DepHyze™ Decon 3D is extremely powerful, it is also biodegradable and not harmful to humans or animals.
- Eliminates Odors – DepHyze™ Decon 3D is 100 percent effective in eliminating foul odors, providing complete biological and chemical odor negation via true chemical neutralization instead of simply masking smells.
- Easy to Use – No special equipment or training is required to use DepHyze™ Decon 3D. In fact, it can be applied in numerous ways (i.e., spray, brush, wipe, mop, mist, etc.). One gallon of the product can treat up to 2,000 square feet.
As an authorized Tionicon™ reseller, CLEANpHIRST™ carries the entire line of products featuring DepHyze™ technology, including an alcohol-free hand sanitizer, a cold-water laundry detergent, a carpet cleaner and more.
