JohnsonDiversey launches H1N1 resource web site

By Jim Butman

JohnsonDiversey has launched www.outbreakcontrol.com, a one-stop resource for managing infection risk in schools, health settings and other commercial spaces.

Developed for JohnsonDiversey's customers, distributors and the general public, the web site provides comprehensive information regarding infectious diseases as well as best practices to manage outbreaks, reduce risk and minimize the spread of infection.

"The global H1N1 pandemic has raised social and individual consciousness on the importance of visibly maintaining healthy, hygienic public environments," said Ed Lonergan, president and chief executive officer of the Racine-based company. "Our understanding of disease, infection and cleaning and hygiene practices needed to minimize their spread makes us uniquely qualified to provide a platform for public awareness and education."

In addition to prevention tips and disinfection and cleaning procedures, the web site features an interactive, "Ask the Expert" question and answer forum, where visitors can have their questions answered by Drs. Dale Grinstead and Jose Ramirez, JohnsonDiversey's infection control experts.

Additionally, JohnsonDiversey's infection control team will regularly post the most up-to-date public health information from the Centers for Disease Control and Infection (CDC), Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the World Health Organization (WHO).

"This Web site provides the proper education and product usage information that are vitally important to maintaining a safe, clean and hygienic facility." Ramirez said.
