The World Health Organization (WHO) yesterday raised the pandemic threat to a phase 4 - "sustained human to human transmission". The Center for Disease Control states that the virus spreads the same way the regular flu does; "Flu viruses are spread mainly from person to person through coughing or sneezing of people with influenza. Sometimes people may become infected by touching something with flu viruses on it and then touching their mouth or nose."

When the lotion is applied to the hands, DermSafe is proven to not only kill bacteria and viruses immediately but also to stay bound to the skin for 4 hours or more; continuing to kill germs - even after hand washing. The product does not contain alcohol and therefore is non-drying and does not present some of the dermatitis issues that alcohol-based products do.
