Eureka Forbes coronaguard achieves 94.9% reduction in covid-19 virus

Dubai: Tests done by internationally accredited laboratory TNO show that the Eureka Forbes Coronaguard achieves a 94.9% reduction in the covid -19 virus after 15 minutes in a BSL-3 lab setup. This test corroborates earlier tests done by accredited laboratories in India and Mexico which showed that the Coronaguard reduced surrogate viruses of SARS COV-2 and other coronaviruses in enclosed spaces of upto 100 square meters. These results involved both tests with viruses in air and on surfaces.

Forbes Coronaguard’s innovative technology creates a negatively charged electron cloud using photons which physically disables the homing mechanism on the virus. This neutralizes the virus and prevents infectivity. The device is not an air purification or medical device. It does not produce ozone and is completely safe for humans and animals. Coronaguard is CE certified as a Class I device, a category of devices with the lowest perceived risk and is market-enabled under US FDA during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Public Health Emergency.

Prakash Trading Company, under its new Wellness Division, distributes Eureka Forbes Coronaguard in the UAE. “We have huge interest from various organisations including schools, banks, hotels and restaurants for the Coronaguard. The safety of patrons, visitors, staff is of utmost importance for every organisation. The UAE has maintained a strategic approach in containing the COVID-19 virus. To ensure that the momentum continues, it is recommended that the country takes advantage of this innovative technology. In a typical installation inside an office or restaurant, the device will mitigate the spread of the virus among staff and visitors if there is an infected person within the premises.” said Mr. Ajay Karani, Director of Prakash Trading Company.

The UAE has administered over 18 million vaccine doses. According to data released by the National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority (NCEMA), 76 per cent of residents are fully vaccinated against Covid-19, while 87 per cent have received at least one dose. Innovative solutions as Coronaguard, will not only help the country contain the spread of COVID-19, but also ensure it remains safe for residents and citizens to function and operate securely and safely.

“Coronaguard is plug and play device, that works by flooding hypercharge electrons in the exposed areas, which attach to the coronaviruses through its spike protein (S-protein), to disable the infectivity of virus. It safely disables up to 94.9% of covid-19 and the corona family of viruses without causing any harm to humans or pets and causes no interference to other electronic devices. The device covers a wide area of 100m2 has no odours, minimal power consumption, no use of chemicals, no stains or residue or any harmful side-effects. This makes it a perfect solution for all high-risks and essential service environments, as well as homes.” added Mr. Karani.

Coronaguard can be safely deployed in all environments inhabited by people, be it very large or small enclosed spaces. It helps create safe zones in banks, health care facilities, gymnasiums, restaurants, hotels, schools, colleges, places of worship, nurseries and offices. It is user friendly and easy to install with the included wall bracket and can operate continuously with no maintenance mandated. Prakash Trading Company aims to continue the legacy of Eureka Forbes in the UAE, with the Forbes Coronaguard. The company is confident that the Coronaguard will serve as the right solution in reducing the spread of COVID-19 in the UAE and getting it ready for the upcoming Expo 2020.
