What are Sneeze Guards used for?
As the world embraces change in the aftermath of the Corona Virus outbreak, we as a collective force have to unite and become pillars of hope and prosperity for others. Due to businesses across the country, opening their doors to the public, the threat of droplet-based contamination has never been more significant. With workers and customers in close proximity to one another, social-distancing regulations are bound to be broken; however, it is quite problematic in terms of putting an end to the spread of the virus and other problems that may arise. Glass and Acrylic Sneeze Guards come into play when business-owners take action against the risks involved with opening for business, lowering the chance of germinal objects being expelled from an individuals oral-cavity and contaminating the surrounding area.
Sneeze Guards are commonly referred to as Glass Shields. By definition, they serve to act as a physical barrier between individuals or objects in close proximity to one another. In fact, Glass Sneeze Guards were created by a man named Johnny Garneau, a Pennsylvania local who was in the buffet-industry and found a solution for food contamination. Due to respiratory droplets being spread through coughing, sneezing, or even talking, they are, by nature, the most efficient way to spread disease and bacteria, a subject susceptible to today's world status.
While Sneeze Guards were initially intended to play a vital role in the cleanliness of food-based industries, being ruled by the FDA as mandatory in the 1960s, today, we used them for a vastly different purpose. As stated by MIT, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, an ordinary sneeze is subject to carry approximately 100,000 germinal objects at a speed of 100 miles per hour, in a cone-shaped radius at a distance of 200 feet, declaring it quite a danger.
Still, with the more common usage of Sneeze Guards to aid in the fight against the Corona-Virus alongside the utilization of masks, we stand a chance of maintaining a safe equilibrium. One that sees businesses reopen safely as we revitalize the economy and the public remains healthy and worry-free.
