Where we are … Virus, the Model Food Code & Compliance Intervention: Vaccine Industry Compliance 20092005 Hep A Small scale usage Hep A Increased usage Model Food Code

Structural Classification of Viruses EnvelopedNon-Enveloped Adenovirus Hepatitis A Norovirus Papillomavirus Poliovirus Rhinovirus Rotavirus Hepatitis B virus Hepatitis C virus Herpes Virus HIV Influenza viruses Respiratory Syncitial Virus SARS-CoV

The Non-enveloped Virus Problem 30.9 million cases of foodborne illnesses/year* 23 million from norovirus* Lack of new vaccines “ The majority of viruses for which hand transmission plays a critical role are non-enveloped. ” Dr. Macinga *Mead et. al., Emerging Infectious Diseases, 1999, 5:607.
11
Where we are … Virus, the Model Food Code & Compliance Intervention: Alcohol Hand Sanitizer Where water is readily available Industry Compliance 20092005 Only after handwashing Usage by few A light soiling alternative to handwashing (Synergized Alcohol Formulae, min 3 log reduction) Usage by many Model Food Code

Fendler et. al., “Efficacy of Alcohol-Based Hand Sanitizers Against Fungi and Viruses”; Infection Control and Hospital Epidemiology, Feb. 2002, 23, 2, p. 61-62 2 D.M.

More Viral Efficacy Data Research is on the rise Hand sanitizer efficacy and viral detection are hot spots In-vivo data presented and in press Stay tuned …
15
Where we are … Virus, the Model Food Code & Compliance Intervention: Alcohol Hand Sanitizer- SaniTwice Process Where water is not readily available Industry Compliance 20092005 Usage in special situations (military) A light soiling alternative to handwashing A moderate soiling alternative to handwashing when used with a nailbrush (Synergized Alcohol Formulae, min 3 log reduction) Usage by many Model Food Code
16
Where we are … Virus, the Model Food Code & Compliance Step 1 – Apply alcohol hand-sanitizer generously. Step 2 – “ Wash ” vigorously for 20 seconds. Step 3 – Wipe off / dry with a disposable paper towel. Step 4 – Re-apply alcohol hand-sanitizer according to label instructions. Introducing SaniTwice TM For light to moderate soiling, when water is not readily available.
17
SaniTwice Study - NEHA Participants: 44 FDA, USDA, CDC, Operators & Academia Test Method: 1. Contaminate hands with UV tracer. 2. Use SaniTwice method. 3. Measure residues using UV light. Results: “Surprised with the level of cleaning.”

Where we are … Virus, the Model Food Code & Compliance Intervention: Handwashing Industry Compliance “Handwashing compliance is no longer about training or the Food Code, it’s about filling the voids in operational standards and management information systems.” Jim Mann 20092005 Almost everything covered Poor Almost everything covered (See Issue Incubator) Measurement, documentation, QA/audited systems Model Food Code

Management Information Initiative Maricopa County, RTE…variance program Participating Operators: 210 Independent & chain restaurants: Taco Bell, Burger King, Arby’s, Jack-in-the-Box, Sonic, Kona Grill, KFC, Cold Stone Creamery & more “ Operators are rewarded for taking control of their handwashing, making it a system which they monitor and document.” David Ludwig, Maricopa County

Hand Hygiene: A Game of Chance … or a managed system
