Vanguard Cleaning Systems of the Southern Valley

Restaurants, due to their very nature, commonly find themselves on display when breakdowns in cleanliness and hygiene occur. Quite often, the neglected areas are immediately obvious, directly impact the diner's experience, and, in regards to odors coming from the kitchen or bathroom, pervasive. While the local Health Department can be unforgiving towards establishments that violate health and safety codes, upset customers can do far more damage online and through word of mout...h. According to The Back Burner; A recent poll conducted by Harris Interactive reveals that 88% of people who encounter a dirty restroom at a restaurant think this reflects poorly on the sanitation of the rest of the establishment, including the kitchen and food preparation areas. Of those, a full 29% said they would never come back to a restaurant whose restroom they found to be very dirty. For More Information: http://vanguardsv.bypronto.com//the-dirtiest-places-in-re/

U.S. Outbreaks of Norovirus, 2009-2013 https://buff.ly/3892Jli

According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC); Each year, there are about 2,500 reported norovirus outbreaks in the United States. Norovirus outbreaks occur throughout the year but are most common from November to April.... https://buff.ly/3892Jli

Though a year-round issue, norovirus outbreaks are especially challenging during the winter months, coinciding with the annual influenza season and, this year, the ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, potentially overwhelming certain institutions if not dealt with professionally. https://buff.ly/3892Jli

Nursing home and long-term care residents have been among the hardest hit during the COVID-19 pandemic, due in large part to their compromised immune systems and various comorbidities. https://buff.ly/3kyp933

Preventative disinfection measures significantly improve the health and safety of occupied facilities by eliminating illness-causing pathogens, bacteria, molds, and mildews on high touch surfaces. https://buff.ly/3kAKhp8

Routine touchpoint cleaning and disinfection services have been proven to reduce the presence of illness-causing pathogens in offices and classrooms. A 2007 study published by the American Society of Microbiology identified hand to fomite contact as, potentially, the most common method of germ transmission among humans, reporting that; A majority of respiratory viruses are enveloped (parainfluenza virus, influenza virus, RSV, and coronavirus) and survive on surfaces from hour...s to days. In contrast, most enteric viruses are nonenveloped and survive on fomites from weeks to months. Studies have demonstrated that viral transfer from hands to surrounding surfaces is possible in 7 out of 10 viruses reviewed. Investigations of disease outbreaks and disinfection intervention studies have documented indoor surfaces as reservoirs for pathogenic viruses with potential spread of infectious disease. The study concluded that the presence and transmission of pathogens can be reduced through a combination of surface disinfection and hand hygiene. For More Information: https://buff.ly/3noXpQc

This year's influenza season appears to be off to the predicted slow start due, in large part, to the efforts put forth to halt the spread of SARS-CoV-2 throughout the year, but that could all shift rapidly in the other direction, so the population must be well informed regarding the similarities and differences between the two deadly respiratory illnesses. https://buff.ly/3kiEYL7

A recent study has underscored the importance of high-quality hand hygiene practices in the fight against COVID-19 by demonstrating the amount of time SARS-CoV-2 can remain resident on human skin. https://buff.ly/37t3EwL

A recent update to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) page regarding information about how SARS-CoV-2 spreads from person to person underscores the importance of facility cleaning and long-established social distancing guidelines. https://buff.ly/3iUELfE

Due to issues surrounding lockdowns and paranoia--the direct result of pandemic tension--the vaccination rate has reportedly dropped among adults and children, setting the stage for a potential public health crisis to dwarf the recent COVID-19 outbreak. https://buff.ly/3iWto6S

Tensions are high among facility occupants--teachers, students, customers, business owners, and employees--faced with the daily struggle of managing COVID lockdown and personal protective equipment requirements while trying to avoid getting sick. https://buff.ly/30GO0tA
