Electronic Equipment Making People Sick

Results of a Dan Rather CBS News Report

Dirty electronic equipment makes people sick! On May 12th, 1997, a CBS news reporter, John Roberts, did a report on tests conducted throughout the United States on the presence of germs on all kinds of public surfaces. He reported that in all of the surfaces tested, it was found there was at least one form of bacteria and/or virus on each surface, such as E. Coli, Staph Aureus, Bacillus Cerus, and even fecal matter, just to name a few.

“What we found on that ATM was a toxic form of E. coli bacteria, similar to one that caused a deadly outbreak of food poisoning in the Northwest four years ago… and it wasn’t just the ATM that was carrying the disease. Fifty percent of the surfaces we tested had at least one form of toxic bacteria on them.”

“With almost every touch, every breath, we come into contact with germs.”

There is a service available that will clean and disinfect all sensitive electronic equipment. This includes keyboards, monitors, CPUs, photocopiers, fax machines, phones, money counters, adding machines, ATMs, debit machines, and diagnostic equipment. Most people are truly afraid to clean these machines and with good reason. They’re afraid they’ll damage the equipment if they try to clean it.

Amazingly not many businesses have addressed the problem.

In most offices, the equipment has been left dirty for years. Most people have just become accustomed to working with dirty equipment. If people accepted this same level of cleanliness in buildings, carpets, and walls these locations would look grungy and muddy. Windows would be dirty.

If you think you have a maintenance contract on your equipment and they look after cleaning of your equipment, wrong again.

Maintenance contracts are set up to ensure that the equipment continues to function – NOT that it is clean for you to operate. After all, the company you lease your car from doesn’t wash it for you.

Computer Technicians, Photocopier Repair Techs and IT Professionals are not cleaning your equipment. They just don’t have the time nor the inclination to clean the outside of your equipment.

Janitorial Services do NOT clean equipment, nor should they. They would rather clean a bomb than a computer or data terminal. It’s just too risky for them because they are not trained to perform this service.

Who does?
