Frontline protection against Swine Flu
July 1st 2009 Workers caring for sufferers
and involved in reducing the
spread of Swine Flu are being
provided with a choice of
protection by Scott Health &
Safety, manufacturer of
respiratory protective
equipment (RPE). Scott can
assist in selecting appropriate
equipment dependant on the
user, their work function, and
the likely period of use.
Swine Flu is a viral threat
and protection from viruses,
bacteria and other microorganisms
requires particle
filtration. The highest
efficiency is provided by a P3
filter. Guidelines have been
issued by the HPA, WHO and
CDC particularly for carers,
advising on the precautions
that should be taken with
regard to flu viruses. Advice
recommends use of P3
filtration, plus close fitting eye
protection.
