【Echo Tech】 New discovery in Summer.
We were at summer vacation in 7~16 August.
Privately, I went back to my home town, Ibaraki prefecture and stayed for over a week.
Something different in each region.
Half of year have passed since my last homecoming. This summer, coronavirus infection rate in Tokyo marked highest rate from virus outbreak. Government soon declared “Emergency” on some prefectures where the infection rate extended than other prefectures, so we have restricted going outside. When I arrived to Ibaraki, I soon found small different points between Aichi and Ibaraki.
1. Alcohol vs. HClO(hypochlorous acid water)
I visited restaurant, shopping mall, other institutions and find that stores in Ibaraki is putting Alcohol, and Aichi is putting HClO, relatively more than others as sterilization in entrance.
(This is just my individual opinion)
We use to have a question, that “which is one is effective for coronavirus”.
The answer is, both.
However, there are some researches that HClO sterilizes faster than alcohol. Since corona outbreak, HClO has discussed for long time whether it’s safety for human body or not. In June 2020, Japanese ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare announced to public not to atomize HClO. They alerted HClO comes into eyes deteriorates sight function, and leads other diseases. (They already admitted effectiveness of sterilization, and using for wipe things and body)
This controversy still continues even year passed from start. Every day we see peoples individual both side’s opinion written on internet sites. Considering those backgrounds, stores may be putting solution under their own thinking.
2. Proportion of age.
Seeing through over the both prefectures(Aichi and Ibaraki), peoples age living in Aichi seems standardly younger than Ibaraki, relatively. (Again, this is just my individual opinion)
When I walk outside, I feel difference of peoples age between both regions. It is said that coronavirus has high mortality for high aged people. Repeatedly announcing on news, those peoples are use to staying at home now, so it could easily know the towns age average by seeing peoples age walking outside.
Vaccine are now able to administer prior to high aged peoples. We hope everyone could take vaccine, and “age of quarantine” will end soon.
What we could do now is to sterilize yourself thoroughly.
Prevent for infection is not to just protect yourself, but to protect your relative peoples.
Ultrasonic Atomizer
Our ultrasonic atomizer could keep atomize HClO(hypochlorous acid water) to the air.
HClO is proved that it has effect of sterilization to flu, norovirus, and coronavirus.
As I mentioned, atomizing HClO is not recommended by Japanese ministry of health, labor, and welfare that they are saying it harms human from entering from eyes. We have sold ultrasonic atomizer for 20 years, and never had complaint from customers or report of body harm. If you are concerning to get, we are always here to resolve your mind.
Prepare for next Winter!
How did you spend time this August? Did you discover something new?
Your country might not in summer season now, preparing for next cold season’s explosive infection rate increase, it’s not so fast for considering next measure against virus.
This summer, I learned that “small awareness changes people’s act”.
Each small experience or awareness might change your future, so let’s be conscious for it, and change yourself from things closely around you.
