The ONLY Way to Kill the H1N1 Virus

How close and how long do you need to steam a hard surface to kill H1N1? I recently watched an infomercial that showed someone cleaning from about 1 foot away and for a fraction of a second. They claimed that it kills 99.9% of germs. I tried it today on my hand: it felt a little hot but didn't burn. Lets get real! You must steam very close to the surface for at least 2 seconds (preferably 5 seconds) to kill H1N1. I tell you this because it is scary to have people thinking a warm gentle breeze will kill germs. Clinical studies report that extreme hot and extreme cold is the only way to “KILL” germs. Vapor steam enters the biofilms and destroys the cell making it impossible to revive. This death occurs within 2 seconds of exposure. CHEMICALS cannot do this. (These films are slightly resistant to almost all germicides—surprisingly, even bleach, according to Scientific American magazine.) The steam penetrates into pores and other areas most chemicals cannot reach. The protective biofilms produced by germs on kitchen, restroom, and other surfaces to shield themselves from harm are penetrated and removed easily with hot, moist, steam vapor, according to Rick Hoverson, principal of Advanced Vapor Technologies, Edmonds, WA. In addition there are NO germicides that are non-toxic. If you are using vapor steam to clean with, please get close enough to the surface and steam long enough to effectively heat the surface and kill those germs!
