BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., March 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TOMI Environmental Solutions, Inc.® (“TOMI”) (OTCQB:TOMZ), is a global company specializing in disinfection and decontamination, utilizing its premier Binary Ionization Technology (BIT) platform through its SteraMist products - a hydrogen peroxide-based mist and fog composed of ionized Hydrogen Peroxide (iHP). In the continuing effort to combat coronavirus (COVID-19) both overseas and domestically, SteraMist has officially been declared the official decontamination technology of the Seoul City Metro Transit in South Korea.
South Korea’s national total of COVID-19 cases has grown to over 4,000 according the South Korean Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (KCDC). Detecting the early stages of COVID-19 infection can prove to be difficult, and direct contact with the virus that are on common surfaces such as railings, vending machines and train seats in rapid transit systems worldwide are thought to be a mechanism for transference.
An established five-year TOMI authorized distributor in South Korea, GD Sciences, has begun to address this problem by utilizing SteraMist technology in transit systems, focusing primarily on the metropolitan transit system of South Korea’s capital city, Seoul. The annual ridership of the Seoul Metropolitan Subway is over 1.2 billion. This application has allowed SteraMist to become a critical line of defense as a preventative measure against the rapid spread of COVID-19.
Joseph So, the CEO of GD Sciences, states, “We experienced a similar outbreak with MERS years ago and have dealt with these types of infectious disease outbreaks in the past. The number of confirmed patients is higher than five years ago, but rest assured that Seoul’s Metro System is in safe hands with the use of SteraMist decontamination equipment and its rapid ease of application with six-log (99.9999%) efficacy.”
On-site application of SteraMist has been tested throughout transportation venues in the metro subway trains, treating surfaces such as seating, handles, vending machines, walls, floors, and doors. Joining the workers treating the area with SteraMist was Seoul’s mayor, Park Won-soon. Seeing the success of SteraMist disinfection, the mayor has hired GD Science to service the Seoul Metropolitan Rapid Transit Corporation (SMRT).
TOMI’s CEO, Dr. Halden Shane, states, “We are pleased to announce this opportunity to help protect the city of Seoul and fight the ongoing threat of COVID-19 by ensuring a healthier transit environment through SteraMist. Just as new cases of infection are continuously growing in countries around the world, this is yet another step in our commitment to global cooperation as we continue to innovate for a safer world in the face of new and existing pathogen threats.”

Already EPA-registered on lists J, K, G, and L, which include H1N1 or Influenza A (enveloped) and Norovirus (non-enveloped), TOMI anticipates to secure listing in the EPA’s upcoming publication of Emerging Pathogen Lists, which includes COVID-19. SteraMist was also featured as the only disinfectant product in the World Health Organization Compendium of Innovative Health Technologies.
SteraMist is now the industry standard throughout China after TOMI recently received approval and registration for two (2) separate registrations - SteraMist equipment registration and BIT solution registration - from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (China CDC). With the latest outbreak, China is able to take advantage of SteraMist disinfection and its ability to rapidly deploy throughout the country as needed. TOMI is finalizing negotiations with high-level Chinese officials for use of the SteraMist Surface Unit in aiding the control of COVID-19.

A YORK company is waiting to decontaminate the infected city hotel room where the only two confirmed coronavirus patients in the UK had been staying.
Bio Decon Group is waiting for the all-clear from Public Health England to begin its work at the StayCity hotel, next to York Barbican.
Andy McMillan, managing director of Bio Decon Group, said his company is the only one in the UK that can tackle the job. He said: “This is massive for York as we are the only company with the TOMI Steramist licence in the UK that can eradicate this virus.
“We are now waiting for Public Health England to release the room and corridor back to StayCity York and we will carry out the decontamination process.
“It’s important that we act quickly and help York as a city.
“We are on high alert and in constant contact with Public Health England in case any more cases occur.”
TOMI Steramist Environmental Solutions is working in Asia to help disinfect areas that have become contaminated.
StayCity York said that a date to begin decontaminating the room is still not confirmed, and the room remains cordoned off.
The York pair who contracted the virus - one of whom is a University of York student - were first seen by health officials on Wednesday last week.
On Friday, it was confirmed that the pair had become the first to test positive for the coronavirus in the UK.

TOMI is working alongside many of our premier partners throughout Asia and, if needed, the world to bring SteraMist to those in need of the most effective disinfectant and decontaminant to fight coronavirus-Wuhan (2019-nCoV).”
