Ebola is believed to be susceptible to a broad range of hospital disinfectants
Four factors should be considered when choosing a disinfectant to fight Ebola, according to an article on the Becker's Infection Control & Clinical Quality website.
The factors are:
• Effectiveness at killing non-enveloped viruses and ability to work with the chosen applicators without impacting the active ingredients
• Dwell time should be an achievable contact time — five minutes or less
• Ease of use
• Simplicity of routine
