As you already know, SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) is a respiratory affection recently emerged in Asia, North America, and Europe. The syndrome starts with high fever (>38 Centigrade); other symptoms that can develop are: headaches, general sensation of discomfort and general pains, sometimes can occur respiratory symptoms and in the interval of 2 to 7 days can emerge respiratory difficulties and whooping cough.

The disease is generally transmitted through direct contact with the infected individual, particularly sexual contact. Ironically, most of the SARS cases happen to the persons who are taking care of SARS patients or those who are living or working together with a SARS suspect. Infection can also take place when coming in contact with contaminated materials or substance such as respiratory secretions from a sneeze of a SARS suspect.

There are other ways of getting the disease. Some of them are by touching the skin of an infected person or even objects touched by the infected person. Still, it can be caught through the air, and other still unknown ways. For people who always travel especially to those regions where there is a SARS outbreak, the contamination risk is great.

Even in your workplace, it would be likely to interact with people who are SARS suspect such as the members of the institutions and its employees. The virus transference is still not absolutely ascertained and identified and there are evidences of its growing to an epidemic level globally.

Due to high risks involved and its bad incubation, several measures have been taken to prevent its further spread. To be able to create effective preventive measures, such as those serious cases with bad development pattern, we have to identify first the cause of this syndrome.

Through the researches performed on infected persons, by specialized laboratory, an unknown type of virus from Coronavirus family was detected, which is the responsible factor of the apparition of SARS. In the case of the first three modalities of prevention, we cannot do more than present them.

The fourth preventive measure forwarded is the use of Virkon, a product that could control and prevent the spread of infection. This product has been the result of years of research and experience in the medical field. They are also able to provide technical support to expound on specific procedures suitable for your area.

It is a specific product for disinfection, with activity proved through numerous individual tests performed in accredited laboratories from more than a hundred countries, with an activity spectrum of 99.99%, a spectrum that has not been equaled by other disinfection products. In consequence, it has been scientifically proved that Virkon is active over the majority of the pathogenic microorganisms, in this way being active over viruses. It is active over 52 from 54 known virus families, through them being also the Coronaviridae family, which is responsible for the apparition of SARS.
