A) COVID-19 Myths
What’s true and what’s not true.
Sometimes we hear something about COVID-19 and think—huh? Here are some myths of coronavirus:
- Exposing yourself to the sun or to temperatures higher than 25°C/77°F prevents the coronavirus disease. (Myth Debunked)
- The new coronavirus can be transmitted through mosquito bites. (Myth Debunked)
- Taking a hot bath prevents the new coronavirus disease. (Myth Debunked)
- Cold weather and snow kills the new coronavirus. (Myth Debunked)
- Being able to hold your breath for 10 seconds or more without coughing or feeling discomfort means you are free from the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) or any other lung disease. (Myth Debunked)

B) When a Replenishment Might be Needed
Re-stocking a preparedness cache can be easy.
That preparedness cache may have been raided (or is currently being raided) for responding to COVID-19. The good news is that if it’s a VeriCor Response-Friendly® System it’s built on a sustainable platform. Let us know the supplies that need to be re-stocked, and we can send you packaged supplies (with location tags) along with a new SmartBook™. If the labor and time would still be too much, we can do a full-service, on-site replenishment. Maybe it hasn’t been touched in a while? Let us do an audit on the system and see what’s expired and give you some options. Call (608) 526-6901 today to speak with a replenishment specialist.
