Wash hands and use håndsprit.
Good hand hygiene is one of the recommendations that health authorities have again and again highlighted, when it comes to protecting themselves against coronaviruses.
Why has just håndsprit also been in short supply out in several Danish supermarkets, when customers step into the stores.
It prompted several grocery chains to take the product ‘no hand disinfectant available’ from Nowocoat in use, but to them they now know to remove them again.
the environmental protection Agency turns the case over to the TV Midtvest real, that the product does not have documented the effect, as Nowocoat otherwise have advertised with.
Therefore, the authorities have also notified the company that they must not mislead the consumer and therefore are not allowed to sell the product before they can document the effect.
But it does not change the fact that håndspritten has been used in, among other things, the Rema 1000, Meny, Bilka and Føtex over the country.
Nowocoat have also sold their product to shops like Matas, T-Hansen and more Save stores. At Matas, for example been able to buy five gallons of no hand disinfectant available for 500 crowns.
Matas has since then chosen to pick the product off the shelves out of a ‘precautionary approach’, as they formulate the.
They had initially kept the product despite the fact that an expert in the last week cast doubt on the efficacy of håndspritten.
the Announcement from the environmental protection agency is not, however, anything that concerns the company’s director, Ole Christian Jensen.
This is because the product absolutely have been lawfully produced and marketed in another company in the same group, Biotech Force Denmark (BFD).
‘BFD is in dialogue with the environmental protection Agency and has submitted extensive material to them. BFD has, in addition, at their own request, chosen to complement the material with the test from the accredited and independent laboratories, which also are enlightened to the environmental protection Agency. BFD is awaiting the environmental protection Agency’s assessment,’ writes Ole Christian Jensen in an email to TV 2 Østjylland.
