MRSA Management Takes Leadership
Best practices for controlling the in-hospital transmission of the drug-resistant staph infection Staphylococcus aureus don't hinge exclusively on costly or complicated measures. Rather, they call for strong leadership and a disciplined staff.
Most often overlooked is many pathogens are airborne and filtration alone will not kill them.

Photocatalytic Oxidation is the technology used in air purification that will significantly reduce airborne pathogens. PCO destroys VOCs and Microbes.
