The article highlights the importance of cleaning the home after contracting infectious diseases, explaining that some viruses and bacteria can survive on household surfaces for varying durations, thus increasing the risk of transmission. It points out that the length of time viruses remain viable depends on the type of microorganism and the surface type; for example, the rotavirus can survive up to an hour on cooked surfaces and over 60 days on aluminum, while bacteria such as salmonella and Escherichia coli can persist on plastic surfaces for up to 300 days under certain conditions. Experts recommend focusing on frequently cleaning and disinfecting touch surfaces, especially door handles, phones, and patient seating areas, as well as washing clothes and used items like bed linens and dishes with hot water and following specific instructions. They also emphasize that proper handwashing and improving ventilation are the most effective measures in reducing infection spread, and dedicating a few minutes to cleaning shared surfaces enhances the family's overall health safety.
