Coronavirus Disinfection Services

Magna Dry Cleaning and Restoration is a leading expert in the disinfection of coronaviruses. We provide emergency service throughout New York, Long Island, New Jersey and Connecticut 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This is an emerging, rapidly evolving situation and we will provide updated information as quickly as possible. 


Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large family of viruses that cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS‐CoV); and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS‐CoV). A novel coronavirus (nCoV) is a new strain that has not been previously identified in humans. The virus has been named “SARS‐CoV‐2” and the disease it causes has been named “coronavirus disease 2019” (abbreviated “COVID‐19”).


Genealogy: 

Coronavirus is an RNA based enveloped virus. Enveloped viruses contain a lipid membrane on the cell wall which adheres to the host cell in order to proliferate. This being the case, the cell wall is easily penetrable to most common disinfectants. Common EPA approved disinfectant makeup can be Quaternary Amonium Compounds, Phenolic Based products and Hydrogen based formulas. 


Transmission of COVID‐19: 

Coronavirus COVID‐19 in most commonly transmitted from person to person, through droplet nuclei spread out from breathing, coughing or sneezing. Droplets can remain suspended in the air for extended periods and are highly respirable. The virus can remain viable on surfaces and fomites for several hours as well. The virus is believed to be most contagious in a person when their symptoms are evident.


However, it’s possible that they may be contagious before and after visible signs of symptoms. People who no longer test positive for the virus may still be infectious according to some of the research. Information on the transmission of the Coronavirus COVID‐19 is being updated as doctors learn more about the virus and how it spreads. We will continue to provide the most up to date information as quickly as possible. 


Symptoms of COVID‐19: 

For confirmed coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) cases, reported illnesses have ranged from mild symptoms to severe illness and death. Symptoms can include: 


  • Fever 
  • Cough 
  • Shortness of breath 


The CDC believes at this time that symptoms of COVID‐19 may appear in as few as 2 days or as long as 14 days after exposure. This is based on what has been seen previously as the incubation period of MERS‐CoV viruses.  


Eradication Method: 

Step 1: Ultra Low Volume (ULV) misting of an affected area with EPA approved hospital grade disinfectant. This mist will eradicate any aerosolized particles allowing for a safer entry of decontamination personnel. Misting is calculated on cubic footage of the affected area. 

Step 2: Surface wiping of contact areas. Floors, walls, fixtures contents within the affected area are hand wiped with disinfectants. A 5‐10‐minute dwell time should be allowed post wipe down. This should be up to an area of approximately 5’ through the area. 

Step 3: Warm water wipe of surface areas to remove a residual disinfectant. 


PPE: 

Technicians are required to don full Level “C” personal protective equipment during the decontamination procedure. Splash resistant coveralls, shoe covers, double gloves, Respirator or PAPR. Coveralls should be decontaminated with sprayer prior to doffing and disposal. 


The CDC advises that the following precautions are taken to lessen the risk of contracting COVID‐19: 


Prevention: 

There is currently no vaccine to prevent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19). The best way to prevent illness is to avoid being exposed to this virus. However, as a reminder, CDC always recommends everyday preventive actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases, including: 


  • Avoid close contact with people who are sick. 
  • Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth. 
  • Stay home when you are sick. 
  • Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash. 
  • Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe. 
  • Follow CDC’s recommendations for using a facemask. 
  • CDC does not recommend that people who are well wear a facemask to protect themselves from respiratory diseases, including COVID‐19. 
  • Facemasks should be used by people who show symptoms of COVID‐19 to help prevent the spread of the disease to others. The use of facemasks is also crucial for health workers and people who are taking care of someone in close settings (at home or in a health care facility). 
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing. 
  • If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol‐based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty. 


The Coronavirus COVID‐19 is an emerging disease and information is being updated as doctors and researches learn more about the virus. We will continue to provide the most up to date information as quickly as possible.

Disclaimer: 

According to the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Coronaviruses (CoV) are a large family of viruses that cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Coronavirus disease 2019 (abbreviated COVID-19)


Currently there are no disinfectants that have been tested specifically for this emerging viral pathogen. The CDC is recommending a labeled Hospital Grade disinfectant with claims against similar type organisms to SARS-CoV-2. The disinfectants the workers will use meet these criteria.
