Description
ViroGuard 2 is designed as a PPE hood for healthcare workers who treat patients with the Ebola virus or other High Consequence Infectious Diseases (HCID) that are unstable and emitting bodily fluids. Bloodborne pathogens are infectious microorganisms that can lead to disease in workers with exposure. Both the material and seams of this disposable hood pass ASTM F1670 and ASTM F1671 for blood and bloodborne pathogen protection. The material provides excellent breathability based on an independently verified high vapor transmission rate. The tough outer laminate layer resists tearing and abrasion damage better than soft microporous laminated alternatives.
