he new coronavirus (2019-nCoV) continues to spread. The transmission seems to be amazingly fast. Contrary to what was initially assumed, infection from person to person is possible.

Due to a lack of preventive measures from the beginning, hospital employees are now among the infected. The World Health Organization (WHO) has called a crisis meeting. An emergency committee is to advise whether an international health emergency is to be declared.

Based on the current data situation, the Robert Koch Institute has issued recommendations for the prevention of the transmission of coronavirus (nCoV) for health care facilities in Germany. In addition to consistent compliance with the basic hygiene measures, the wearing of protective clothing also includes: Respirator, protective gown, safety glasses and gloves.

The rapid increase in the number of people infected with coronavirus requires suitable measures to prevent infection. The innovation company DACH Schutzbekleidung from Rastatt supported important organisations with protective clothing such as the specially developed "BioSafe protective suit" during the Ebola crisis in 2014.

Today, hospitals, health organisations and institutions are once again faced with the challenge of protecting their staff from the coronavirus, especially those who are in direct or indirect contact with infected people.

Due to the currently increasing demand for protection against the coronavirus, DACH Schutzbekleidung reacted quickly and manufactured protective sets for users to prevent infection. As a manufacturer of personal protective equipment, DACH Schutzbekleidung sees it as its mission to protect people from risks to their health in the best possible way. To this end, the company invests in research and development and brings well thought-out, safe products to the market.
