The AHA wrote in a letter to the OSHA that the current standards are complete enough not to be updated.

“No need for additional infection-control standard, AHA tells OSHA

Hello fans! Hopefully you are all enjoying the week.

WETKEYS wanted to make all of us healthy lifestyle goers aware of a potentially dangerous everyday situation.

The New York Times wrote an article on skin infections that can occur at the gym. Below is a portion of it:

When you go to the gym, do you wash your hands before and after using the equipment? Bring your own regularly cleaned mat for floor exercises? Shower with antibacterial soap and put on clean clothes immediately after your workout? Use only your own towels, razors, bar soap, water bottles?

If you answered “no” to any of the above, you could wind up with one of the many skin infections that can spread like wildfire in athletic settings.To read the entire article, click Here

Infections like MRSA can easily be transmitted at gyms, so make sure to be aware of how to avoid getting sick.

Moreover, don’t forget that you need a hygienic keyboard to keep up with your healthy lifestyle. WETKEYS makes all of its products with this in mind. We have waterproof and cleanable keyboards and mice to fit any need.

So stop by our site today and get yours.

The APIC has launched an initiative called Targeting Zero.

Targeting Zero is an effort to eliminate all healthcare-associated infections (HAIs). The goal is bold but possible.

WETKEYS is aiding the effort by producing washable and disinfectable keyboards and mice. Any hospital that equipped itself with our keyboards would be able to disinfect them between users. This could cut down on HAIs dramatically. And reducing and eliminating HAIs is something we all deserve and should demand.

So help WETKEYS and the APIC in Targeting Zero by asking more from your healthcare system. You can become a WETKEYS affiliate today and spread the word!

The USA Today posted this earlier:

“Federal health officers logged more than 3,000 cases of potentially infectious diseases among travelers in the past year, including airline passengers with tuberculosis, whooping cough, measles, mumps and typhoid fever, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data obtained by USA TODAY.

The reported cases, a fraction of illnesses carried by travelers, show the importance of up-to-date vaccinations and getting medical advice before going abroad, says Nina Marano, chief of the CDC’s quarantine branch.”
