The Importance of Sanitizing Shoes during Covid-19

Making Sure that Your Shoes Don’t Lead to Illness

By now, we know all the basics of how to prevent the spread of the virus known as Covid-19. We know that self distancing, in the sense of remaining at least 1.5 to 2 meters away from each other is necessary to prevent spread. We also have been told various ways to sanitize to help prevent the spread.
These measures and methods of sanitizing are helpful. They teach us how to keep our body, our home and our businesses free of Covid-19. We have been told that you must wash your hands for 30 seconds or use a hand sanitizer with a high concentration of alcohol. We know that to prevent the spread of the virus highly frequented areas and things such as door handles, countertops, light switches and more should be disinfected several times a day with an approved product that has displayed efficacy in killing of the virus.
One area that has not been discussed at similar length is the ability for everyday wearable items such as shoes. to be carriesr of the virus.
During a recent study, Covid-19 was tested and found on floors. It was concluded that the virus was most likely being transmitted via shoes. This discovery proved quite important and showed that the virus was being spread in a new way that had not been thought of before. However, the finding made sense. If someone who is infected with the virus happens to sneeze or cough and virus containing these particles fall on the floor, shoes can pick up these infected particles and be carried beyond where it initially rested.
This meant that it was possible that people could walk on a contaminated floor and carry the virus into their home or another place of business. With this new finding, the question now is what can be done in regards to footwear and their possibility of being carriers of the virus. It is clear that measures will have to be taken to assure that the virus is not spread through shoes.
The following measures are now put into place to limit the possibility of shoes spreading the virus. The most important measure that you can take at home and/or your place of business has to do with mode of entry. The best solution to prevent the virus from entering through footwear is to place sanitizing mats at places of entry.
Sanitizing mats contain disinfectant that will clean and disinfect shoes before a person enters a home or business.
