ASFX News:
June 11 - Safety Product Company Sees Increased Online Sales Resulting
from H1N1 Flu
Kidz-Med Thermofocus 5-in-1 Non-Contact Thermometer in Demand
Given the World Health Organization (WHO) has just raised the novel
influenza A/swine flu pandemic alert to phase 6, its highest pandemic
warning level, The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
reports that even though U.S. influenza surveillance systems show a
decrease in flu activity, outbreaks are ongoing in various parts of the
nation, in some cases intensely.
Kidz-Med Inc., a subsidiary of American Scientific Resources, Inc.
(OTC: ASFX) and a leading child health and safety product supplier in
the US, sees the effects that the flu is having on the nation by
experiencing a drastic increase in online sales, namely on the Kidz-Med
Thermofocus 5-in-1 Non-Contact Thermometer, from April 1, 2009 through
May 15, 2009.
Kidz-Med has fielded an increase in inquiries about its Kidz-Med
Thermofocus 5-in-1 from various entities who are preparing to check
adults and children for fevers that could possibly result from this
current flu outbreak.
The Company`s CEO, and pediatric clinician, Dr. Christopher F. Tirotta
reacts by saying, "In our history, we have never received $30,000 in
online revenue within a month and a half. We attribute our PR, social
media and SEO/SEM tactics to enabling people to find us as a go-to
resource, and are ecstatic that our products can help during a time when
our nation needs it most."
He continues, "Since the pandemic level has been raised, we are
expecting to see an increase in customer inquiries and potentially
sales."
The Kidz-Med Thermofocus, which was used by medical personnel in Asia
during the SARS epidemic, is an ideal instrument to use to diagnose
fevers associated with the flu since it has absolutely no contact with
the skin, making for a completely hygienic and non-invasive experience;
a reading is taken in a second and the thermometer is clinically proven
to be accurate and safe.
Kidz-Med is reaching out to let the public know where to go for
reliable safety and prevention information and how the Kidz-Med
Thermofocus, as well as the Kidz-Med medicine dispenser pacifier, can
benefit them during this time.
Dr. Tirotta concludes, "We recommend visiting the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention at Additionally, should anyone have questions pertaining to flu safety
prevention, we can be reached via our website at www.kidzmed.com."
