How Does Sanitization Help in Controlling Outbreaks?
During an outbreak, rigorous sanitization protocols are implemented to control the spread of the disease. Sanitization helps in reducing the pathogen load on surfaces and objects, thereby lowering the risk of transmission. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, frequent disinfection of high-touch surfaces like doorknobs, handrails, and electronic devices was emphasized to minimize the spread of the virus.
