Expectorant shields, such as
the
TranZport Hood
offer a new solution to an old problem-spitting.
Spitting is unpleasant to say the least, but as the
population of infected inmates and arrestees increases, so
does the use of body fluids as weapons.
According to HepC Alert, a
non-profit organization dedicated to Hepatitis education and
awareness, the HCV (Hepatitis C Virus) is found in 30%-45%
of prisoners, and 1 in 50 Americans are infected, and an
estimated 1.2 million are chronic carriers of Hepatitis B.
These are just 2 of the many contagious disease out there
that people may not even be aware that they have. That is
why this organization and many health care providers feel
you should be cautious at all times, and use protective
equipment whenever body fluid contact is likely.
TranZport Products wants to
help you to reduce your risk of exposure by educating law
enforcement personnel on procedures and their options for
expectorant protection.
Representatives are currently
visiting statewide training centers and facilities to
demonstrate and discuss these products because they believe
knowledge is the key to safety.
