Coronavirus survives on common surfaces up to 28 days
In a new study, researchers have found out that the SARS-CoV-2 is very robust on smooth surfaces. Even after 28 days (at 20°C), active viruses still were detectable on surfaces such as glass of cell phone screens and plastic banknotes.

All Shiga Toxine-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) subtypes are pathogenic
The Pathogenicity assessment of “Shiga toxine-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and the public health risk posed by contamination of food with STEC” from 2013 was recently reviewed by EFSA. Based on the assessment it was concluded that all STEC strains are pathogenic in humans, capable of causing at least diarrhoea and that all STEC subtypes may be associated with severe illness (defined as bloody diarrhoea (BD), haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) and/or hospitalization).

New: SARS-CoV-2 sampling kit for face masks
People infected with coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 secrete the virus through droplets when breathing out, speaking, coughing, or sneezing. Wearing mouth, nose, or any respiratory mask is therefore intended to reduce the spread of the coronavirus.
Studies have shown that SARS-CoV-2 can be detected in masks worn by infected people. To prevent a further spread of COVID-19, BAV INSTITUT now offers, along with various surface tests, the testing of worn face masks for coronavirus SARS-CoV-2.
