Managers of retirement and nursing homes are well aware of the particular danger to the elderly and those in need of care from poor or even contaminated indoor air. Because dangerous pathogens are often located in the respiratory tract or throat and are passed on through the air by tiny saliva droplets when coughing or sneezing. Studies have shown that coughed up SARS-CoV-2 viruses remain in the air for up to 3 hours. You can find out why an air humidity of over 40% kills the flu, cold and corona viruses within minutes on our homepage under ‘Applications‘.
In order to permanently reduce the risk of viral and bacterial infections in retirement homes and care facilities, a constant air humidity of over 40% is the best choice. All scientific studies show that a relative humidity that is healthy for humans lies within a corridor of 40 to 60 percent and significantly reduces the risk of infection. In addition, studies show that an air humidity of over 40% kills coughed up flu, cold or corona viruses within minutes.
