Inombolo yosuku ... kulungile, mhlawumbi ulahlekelwe lixesha lokuba ubhubhane we-coronavirus kunye nokuchongwa okwalandelayo kuqhubeka-kwaye ukungangqinelani uyasondela ngokusothusa emazantsi esikhongozeli sakho sosula iClorox. Ke ngoko, ucinezele unqumamo kwiphazili yakho (okanye enye into entsha yokuzonwabisa) kwaye uqalise ukukroba ujonge ezinye izisombululo zokucoca. (P.S. Nantsi into ekufuneka uyazi malunga neviniga kunye nomphunga ngokumalunga namandla abo okubulala iintsholongwane.)

Yilapho uyibona khona: ipakethi ethembisayo yokusula okungafaniyo ebekwe ngasemva kwikhabhinethi yakho. Kodwa linda, ngaba i-generic disinfectant wipes iyasebenza ngokuchasene ne-coronavirus? Kuthekani ngezinye iintsholongwane kunye neebhaktheriya? Kwaye zahluke njani kunokosula i-antibacterial, ukuba kunjalo?

Nantsi into ekufuneka uyazi malunga neentlobo ezahlukeneyo zokucoca kunye neendlela ezifanelekileyo zokuzisebenzisa, ngakumbi xa kuziwa kwi-COVID-19.

Ukucoca, Ukubulala iintsholongwane, kunye nokuCoca zonke zithetha izinto ezahlukeneyo

Okokuqala, kubalulekile ukubonisa ukuba kukho umahluko ocacileyo phakathi kwamanye amagama onokuthi uwasebenzise ngokungafaniyo xa kuziwa kwiimveliso zekhaya. UDonald W. Schaffner, Ph.D., unjingalwazi kwiYunivesithi yaseRutgers ephanda ngovavanyo lomngcipheko weMicrobial, ucacisa athi uDonald W. Schaffner, Ph.D. ungcoliso. "Ukucoca" kwehlisa inani leentsholongwane kumanqanaba akhuselekileyo kodwa akuzibulali, ngelixa "ukubulala iintsholongwane" kucela iikhemikhali ukuba zibulale uninzi lweentsholongwane ezikhoyo, ngokutsho kwamaZiko oLawulo lweSifo kunye noThintelo (CDC).

Ukucoca kunye nokucoceka zizinto ezimbini ekufuneka uzenzile rhoqo ukugcina ikhaya lakho licocekile kwaye lingenabumdaka, ii-allergen, kunye neentsholongwane zemihla ngemihla. Ukubulala iintsholongwane, kwelinye icala, yinto ekufuneka uyenzile ukuba ucinga ukuba i-COVID-19 okanye enye intsholongwane ikhona, uyongeza. (Idibeneyo: Ungayigcina njani iKhaya lakho licocekile kwaye lisempilweni ukuba uQinisekisiwe ngenxa yeCoronavirus.)

“Amabango okubulala iintsholongwane alawulwa yi-Arhente yoKhuseleko lokuSingqongileyo (EPA) kuba eneneni abonwa njengezibulali-zinambuzane,” utshilo uSchaffner. Ngoku, musa ukuphazamiseka, ulungile? Ngokuqinisekileyo igama le-p linokuveza imifanekiso yengca egcwele imichiza, kodwa libhekisa nje "kuyo nayiphi na into okanye umxube wezinto ezijolise ekuthinteleni, ukutshabalalisa, ukugxotha, okanye ukunciphisa nasiphi na isitshabalalisi (kubandakanya neentsholongwane kodwa zingabandakanyi ezikuyo okanye kubantu abaphilayo. okanye izilwanyana)," ngokutsho kwe-EPA. Ukuze sivunywe kwaye sifumaneke ukuba sithengwe, isibulali-ntsholongwane kufuneka sivavanywe ngokungqongqo kwilabhoratri engqina ukhuseleko kunye nokusebenza kwaye kubandakanya izithako zaso kunye nokusetyenziswa okujoliswe kuko kwileyibhile. Nje ukuba ifumane ukukhanya okuluhlaza, imveliso ifumana inombolo ethile yobhaliso ye-EPA, ekwabandakanyiwe kwileyibhile.

Zithini izinto ezosulwa kukubulala iintsholongwane, kanye?

Ukubeka nje, ezi zinto zilahlwayo, zosulwa zokusetyenziswa kanye ezifakwe ngaphambili kwisisombululo esinezithako zokubulala iintsholongwane ezifana ne-quaternary ammonium, i-hydrogen peroxide, kunye ne-sodium hypochlorite. Iimpawu ezimbalwa kunye neemveliso osele uzibonile kwiishelufa zevenkile: I-Lysol Disinfecting Wipes (Ithenge, $ 5, target.com), Clorox Disinfecting Wipes (Thenga yona, $ 6 for 3-pack, target.com), Mnu. Ukusula okubulala iintsholongwane kwiindawo ezininzi.

Nokuba izinto zosulela iintsholongwane zisebenza ngakumbi kunokusebenzisa isitshizi sokubulala iintsholongwane (esiya kubandakanya ezinye izithako ezifanayo) kwaye itawuli yephepha ayikaphononongwa, nangona uSchaffner ephawula ukuba ziyalingana xa kuziwa ekukhuseleni iintsholongwane. Umahluko omkhulu apha kukuba izinto zokusula iintsholongwane (kunye nezitshizi!) zenzelwe ukusetyenziswa kwiindawo eziqinileyo, ezifana nezixhobo zokubala kunye neentsimbi zomnyango, kuphela, kwaye kungekhona esikhumbeni okanye ekutyeni (ngaphezulu koko kuza).

Enye into ebalulekileyo ethathwayo: Izisulisi zokubulala iintsholongwane zahlukile kunezo zijongwa njengezosuleli macala onke okanye ngenjongo yokucoca, njengezosula zikaNksk. Yithenge, $ 7, thrivemarket.com).

Ke khumbula ukuba imveliso (yokusula okanye enye into) ifuna ukuzibiza njengesixhobo sokubulala iintsholongwane, yona kufuneka ukwazi ukubulala iintsholongwane kunye neebhaktiriya ngokwe-EPA. Kodwa ngaba oko kubandakanya i-coronavirus? Impendulo iseyi-TBD, nangona ijongeka ngathi inokwenzeka, utshilo uSchaffner. Okwangoku, ziphantse zibe ngama-400 iimveliso kuluhlu lwe-EPA lwezibulali ntsholongwane ezibhalisiweyo ukuze zisetyenziswe ngokuchasene ne-coronavirus entsha - ezinye zazo, enyanisweni, zizisulisi zokubulala iintsholongwane. Nantsi into ebanjiweyo: "[Uninzi] lweemveliso azikavavanywa ngokuchasene nenoveli coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, kodwa ngenxa yomsebenzi wabo ngokuchasene neentsholongwane ezinxulumene noko [bakholelwa] ukuba ziyasebenza apha," ucacisa uSchaffner.

Nangona kunjalo, ekuqaleni kukaJulayi, i-EPA yabhengeza ukuvunywa kwayo kweemveliso ezimbini ezongezelelweyo - iLysol Disinfectant Spray (Thenga, $ 6, target.com) kunye neLysol Disinfectant Max Cover Mist (Yithenge, $ 6, target.com) - emva kovavanyo lwaselebhu lubonisiwe. ukuba ezi zintsholongwane ziyasebenza ngokuchasene ne-SARS-CoV-2 virus, ngakumbi. Iarhente ibize ukwamkelwa kweLysol "into ebalulekileyo" kumlo wokunqanda ukusasazeka kwe-COVID-19.

NgoSeptemba, i-EPA yabhengeza ukuvunywa kwesinye isicoci somgangatho oboniswe ukubulala i-SARS-CoV-2: iPine-Sol. Uvavanyo lwelebhu yomntu wesithathu lubonakalise ukusebenza kwePine-Sol ngokuchasene nentsholongwane kunye nemizuzu eli-10 yokunxibelelana kwiindawo ezilukhuni, ezingezizo ezomileyo, ngokutsho komshicileli. Abathengisi abaninzi sele bethengisa ngaphandle kokucoca umphezulu emva kokuvunywa yi-EPA, kodwa okwangoku, usengayifumana iPine-Sol kwiAmazon ngobukhulu obahlukeneyo, kubandakanya iibhotile ze-9.5-oz (Thenga yona, $ 6, amazon.com), 6 -ipakethi yeebhotile ezingama-60-oz (Ithenge, $ 43, amazon.com), kunye neebhotile ze-100-oz (Ithenge, $ 23, amazon.com), phakathi kobunye ubungakanani.

Ungalufumana njani uninzi lweeMveliso zakho

Umahluko ophambili phakathi kwendlela ozisebenzisa ngayo ezi ntlobo zahlukeneyo zosula? Ixesha lokuqhagamshelwana - aka ukuba ixesha elide kangakanani umphezulu owusulayo kufuneka uhlale umanzi ukuze usebenze, ngokwe-EPA.

Ngaphambi kobhubhane we-coronavirus, usenokuba nepakethe yezinto zokubulala iintsholongwane ukuze usule ngokukhawuleza ikhawuntara yasekhitshini, isinki yokuhlambela, okanye indlu yangasese- kwaye kulungile. Kodwa ukuswayipha ngokukhawuleza ngaphesheya komphezulu kuthathwa njengokucoca, hayi ukubulala iintsholongwane.

Ukuvuna izibonelelo zokubulala iintsholongwane kwezi zisuli, umphezulu kufuneka uhlale umanzi ixesha elide kunemizuzwana embalwa. Umzekelo, imiyalelo ye-Lysol Disinfecting Wipes ithi umphezulu kufuneka uhlale umanzi imizuzu emine emva kwesicelo sokubulala iintsholongwane kwindawo. Oko kuthetha ukuba, ukuze usebenze ngokupheleleyo, kuya kufuneka wosule ikhawuntari kwaye emva koko unokufuna ukusebenzisa elinye ilaphu ukuba uqaphela indawo iqala ukoma phambi kokuba loo mizuzu mine iphele, utshilo uSchaffner.

Imiyalelo yokusulwa kweentsholongwane ezininzi ithi ukucoca nawuphi na umphezulu onokuthi uchukumise ukutya namanzi emva koko. Oku kubaluleke ngakumbi xa usebenzisa oku ekhitshini lakho, njengoko kuthetha ukuba kunokubakho intsalela yesibulali-ntsholongwane eshiyekileyo ongafuniyo ukungena ekutyeni kwakho, utshilo uSchaffner. (Ngaphandle kwento ayithethileyo nabani na ngesihloko, AKUFUNEKA ufake amayeza okubulala iintsholongwane- okanye uwasebenzise kwivenkile yakho yokutya-yeyona nto ilungileyo ukucoca indawo ngaphambi kokuba uqale ukupheka isidlo sangokuhlwa.)

Kuvakala ngathi unegumbi elincinci lempazamo apha, akunjalo? Ewe, iindaba ezimnandi: ukuhamba kwinkqubo yokubulala iintsholongwane akusoloko kuyimfuneko. Ukuba indlu yakho ayinatyala okanye iqinisekisile imeko ye-COVID-19 okanye umntu engaguli ngokubanzi, "la manyathelo omeleleyo awadingeki, kwaye ungaqhubeka nokucoca indlu yakho ngendlela oqhele ukwenza ngayo," utshilo uSchaffner . Naluphi na uhlobo lwesicoci sokutshiza esisetyenziselwa iinjongo ezininzi, izinto zokucoca, okanye isepha kunye namanzi ziya kwenza iqhinga, ngoko ke akukho mfuneko yakuba noxinzelelo lokufumana ezo zosuli zinqwenelekayo zeClorox Disinfecting Wipes. (Ukuba ikhaya lakho linetyala le-COVID-19, nantsi indlela yokukhathalela umntu one-coronavirus.)

Kuthekani Ngezinto Ezisosulwa Ngentsholongwane?

Ngokubanzi, izinto zosulelo zokubulala iintsholongwane zisetyenziswa kwiindawo eziqinileyo kwaye zosulwa yi-antibacterial (ezinje nge-Wet Ones) zezokucoca ulusu lwakho. Izinto eziqhelekileyo ezisebenzayo kwezi zibandakanya i-benzethonium chloride, i-benzalkonium chloride, kunye notywala. Izosuli zokulwa ne-antibacterial, kunye neesepha ezichasene ne-antibacterial kunye nezicoci zezandla, zilawulwa yi-Food and Drug Administration (FDA) kuba zihlelwa njengechiza, uyacacisa uSchaffner. Njenge-EPA, i-FDA iqinisekisa ukuba imveliso ikhuselekile kwaye iyasebenza ngaphambi kokuba ivumeleke ukuba ibetheke kwimarike.

Imalunga ne-COVID-19? Ewe, i-jury iphumile ukuba i-antibacterial wipes okanye isepha yesandla ye-antibacterial iyasebenza ngokuchasene ne-coronavirus. "Imveliso ethi i-antibacterial ithetha kuphela ukuba ivavanywe kwiibhaktheriya. Inokuthi isebenze okanye ingasebenzi kwiintsholongwane," kusho uSchaffner.

Oko kuthethiweyo, ukuhlamba izandla zakho ngesepha kunye ne-H20 isathathwa njengenye yeendlela ezilungileyo zokukhusela kwi-COVID-19, ngokutsho kwamaZiko oLawulo lweSifo (CDC). (Isicoci sesandla esineepesenti ezingama-60 ubuncinci butywala kuyacetyiswa ukuba ukuhlamba izandla akuyona inketho, ukosula iintsholongwane, nangona kunjalo akufakwanga kwizindululo zeCDC.) esikhumbeni sakho (izithako zibukhali kakhulu), ngokwethiyori [kwaye] ukuba ubukwi-crunch, sebenzisa i-antibacterial yosula kwindawo eqinileyo, utsho uSchaffner. Nangona kunjalo, ungcono ukuba uyigcinele ukuyisebenzisela ubuqu, wongeza, kwaye uthembele kwisepha endala kunye namanzi okanye, ukuba kuyimfuneko, isibulala-ntsholongwane esiqinisekiswe yi-EPA ngeenjongo zekhaya.

"UShaffner uthi:" Khumbula ukuba owona mngcipheko wakho uphambili wokufumana i-COVID-19 kukudibana nomntu osulelekileyo. Yiyo loo nto, ngaphandle kokuba kukho imeko eqinisekisiweyo okanye ekrokrelekayo ye-coronavirus ekhayeni lakho, ukuziqhelanisa nokuhambela kude ekuhlaleni kunye nococeko lobuqu (ukuhlamba izandla, ukungachukumisi ubuso bakho, ukunxiba imaski esidlangalaleni) kubaluleke ngakumbi kunento oyisebenzisayo ukosula izixhobo zokubala. (Ukuya ngokulandelayo: Ngaba Unxibe iMask yokuSebenza ngokuSebenza kwangaphandle ngexesha loBhubhane weCoronavirus?)

Uphengululo lwe
