COVID/EBOLA KIT DESCRIPTION

IMC has configured a kit of basic disinfectant and barrier supplies for use in worrisome, unforeseeable exposure to Covid and Ebola viruses risk from potentially infected individuals or contaminated surfaces. Such supplies are often not readily unavailable in countries involved in the outbreaks of these viruses. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control advises commercial airline crew transporting passengers to and from countries where such viruses may be active to place a respiratory isolation mask on anyone on-board with an apparent respiratory illness and symptoms. It would be prudent to wear a capable respiratory mask should a co-traveler on your plane become ill with fever unless it is certain that that person had not been in Covid or Ebola affected countries or had not had contact with anyone else who had been.

Where and how such supplies are used in an epidemic location is discretionary based upon the traveler’s concern over possible bodily fluid contamination (such as toilet seats; unpeeled, uncooked vegetables or fruits; or other soiled surfaces) or close exposure to sick individuals. This kit is for real-time reaction to perceived or actual at-risk situations.

In keeping with these concerns, you might consider our Bloodborne Pathogens Kit, as well, in the case of requiring temporary medical care (ask about its contents).
