PANDEMIC FIRST RESPONSE

Protection from Pathogen - Reduction of Risk
“Bird or swine flu”, SARS or Marburg (MHF) are serious viral diseases. Transmitted by airborne infection or direct contact with casualties, the illness can spread to a dozen countries in a few weeks worldwide. A fast and forceful response is recommened to get the pandemic under control as fast as possible.

Several countries are using thermo imaging to check passengers at the airport. An increased body temperature can indicate a viral infection, but how to proceed if the thermo image becomes red? Potentially infected passengers can be isolated immediately in under-pressurized self-inflatable tents for further examination. The tents are cost-effective, fast to install and easy to operate and to decontaminate. A disinfection shower and HEPA air filter system are integrated; optionally a disinfection fogging device can be installed.
OWR developed a new modular Patient Isolation Unit (PIU) to examine or treat infected patients in a safe environment. It can be used at airports and harbours for fast isolation of potentially infected people, in hospitals to treat infected people in a safe environment or to set up additional laboratory capacities for viral testing.
