Chicago-area schools get a proactive scrub down in response to coronavirus spread

04 Mar 2020 6:09 AM | IJCSA - (Administrator)

As the coronavirus spreads in the Chicago area, some schools are proactively scrubbing down desks, doorknobs and other high-touch surfaces where experts say the virus can live for days.

Junior Rodriguez, a custodian for School District 54, wipes a classroom doorknob with a disinfectant spray at Frost Junior High School, March 3, 2020, in Schaumburg. Rodriguez said he and the custodial staff started giving more emphasis to sanitizing and disinfection cleaning after the first case of COVID-19, or coronavirus, was announced in Hoffman Estates in January.

While state and local public health officials continue to say the risk in the area remains low, some school administrators — and in some cases, the teachers themselves — are increasing the frequency of cleanings. Some are even enacting procedures typically saved for when students or staff fall ill.
