The Covid-19 pandemic has made all of us hyper-aware of viruses
and germs. The fourth wave of the pandemic is happening globally, fuelled by
the highly transmissible Omicron variant. In Malaysia, the Omicron variant is
now dominant.
How can we keep ourselves and our loved ones safe from viruses and
germs while reclaiming our home, work or study space, as a clean zone?
First, know what you’re dealing with. Covid-19 is a respiratory
virus that can spread via droplets, when someone who has the virus coughs,
sneezes or touches their face and then touches a surface. Use a disinfectant
and make sure you always follow the product label’s instructions for proper
usage and contact time.

“The Omicron variant is highly transmissible making it vital to
disinfect hard surfaces, more often. Aim to disinfect frequently touched
surfaces like keys, door knobs and handles, mobile phones, tablets, laptops,
desktops, keys, the interior of your vehicle and even parcels and deliveries.
It is better to be extra vigilant to stay safe,” said Paulo Lao, Sales and
Marketing Director for Clorox Southeast Asia. “The transmissibility of the
Omicron variant means that we can be the ones who bring the virus into our
homes and pass it to our loved ones. It is important to disinfect the
items we come in contact with for safety, hygiene and peace-of-mind.”
Clorox would like to share some tips on how you can reclaim your
space and protect yourself and your loved ones in the face of rising Omicron
cases.
Work, School and
College Space Safety
Collaboration is a large part of in-office and in-person school
or college sessions. While we aim to maintain social distancing, we might come
in contact with items that have been touched by others. It is okay to be a
‘clean freak’ by disinfecting your work or study area when you arrive and again
after lunch.
Create a Prevention Pack
Keep illness prevention items (such as face masks, face shields,
hand sanitizer, disposable gloves, disinfecting wipes and disinfecting spray)
in a centralised spot in your home, the centre console of your car, at your
work or study station, or inside your purse/backpack for when you’re on the
go.
Disinfect all your
devices and ‘carry-ons’ daily
Your carry-ons such as your handbag, backpack, laptop, and mobile
phone may come in contact with droplets – from yourself or from those around
you. Always give these items a good wipe down. Be sure to bring along the
Clorox Expert Disinfecting Wipes flowpack when you are out and about to ensure
that your personal items are safe and not inadvertently spreading the
virus.
Disinfect your vehicle
We spend so much time in our vehicles, often with our masks off.
Keep Clorox Expert Disinfecting Wipes within reach, to wipe down and disinfect
hard surfaces in your vehicles. Remember to wipe the air conditioner vents and
the door handles both inside and out.
Spray the germs away
Before bringing groceries or parcels into your home, spray them down. Keep Clorox Expert Disinfecting Spray at the entryway to quickly disinfect items to keep you safe from viruses and bacteria.
Disinfect High-Touch Hot Spot Surfaces In Your Home
Handrails, light
switches, handles and doorknobs are all notoriously germy, as are high-touch
items like phones, computer keyboards and TV remotes. We recommend Clorox
Disinfecting Wipes for in home usage as they kill 99.9% of viruses and bacteria
including the Covid-19 virus in just 15 seconds. Give them a good once-over
daily.
Don’t let your guard down. Following these simple tips can help us
stay safe and healthy, better able to cope with the challenges posed by the
Omicron variant.
