In some cases, have been found harmful bacteria such as E. coli, listeria and salmonella. It was established, that the microclimate and nutrient medium inside the refrigerator is quite favorable for a large number of microorganisms, so experts from Microban Europe advise as often as possible and thoroughly wash the internal compartments of refrigerators.

Dangerous Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) extends in the USA - VIDEO
Friday, 13 June 2014 15:00
In the United States identified several human cases with fairly new disease caused by Chikungunya virus. In the United States at this summer, were recorded 28 cases of incurable disease, which people become infected through the bite of mosquitoes. According to doctors, the virus begins to spread rapidly. Main symptoms: high temperature up to 40 degrees, which is difficult to bring down, severe joint pain that can last for several years, as well as possible complications of all organs and systems of the body in a weakened immunity. At the moment it is known that a part of Chikungunya virus bite two aggressive mosquito species Aedes aEgypti and Aedes albopictus, both of which are known, it bite mainly during daylight hours during the day. According to experts, the disease caused by mosquito virus existed in ancient times, but for a long time was the so-called hibernation. But last fall, for some reason it was activated in the Caribbean and began to spread like lightning across the globe. Most negative is that you can not get a virus from a mosquito only directly, but also on virus-infected person. To date, worldwide registered 103,000 cases of people with an incurable disease and this number is constantly growing. And the worst thing that no disease treatment. Scientists can not invent an effective vaccine against chikungunya virus (CHIKV). For people with weak immune systems, as well as older people, the virus can be fatal and lead to death. Chikungunya (CHIKV) is an arbovirus that is a virus that is transmitted primarily by insects. The greatest risk of contracting the virus appears in the Indian subcontinent travelers, Africa or Asia, and the United States. Europe's first outbreak of chikungunya was recorded in Italy. The inCubation period of the "mosquito virus" can last several days. Then there is a high fever with temperatures up to 40 ° C, followed by severe pain in the joints. Appears muscle pain, headache, nausea, severe fatigue and rash. With a strong immune system, the disease can retreat itself. Symptomatic treatment is used. Joint pain can last for several weeks. MOH different countries registered separate cases with various serious complications vision, CNS, heart, gastrointestinal tract. A person can get the virus through the bite of female mosquito, as well as from person to person. On average, the disease appears 4-8 days after the bite of an infected mosquito, but the inCubation period can range from 2 to 12 days. There is evidence that certain carriers may be animals including primates. The proximity of human habitation to breeding of mosquito vectors is a huge risk factor for chikungunya. General preventive measures directed reduction of natural and artificial ponds and tanks, they are habitat and reproduction. During outbreaks can spray insecticides to kill adult mosquitoes, applied to surfaces in and around containers where mosquitoes land, and water treatment containers to kill the larvae. In order to protect against chikungunya should wear clothing that minimizes skin bites in the daytime. Exposed areas can be sprayed repellents, which should contain diethyltoluamide, IR3535 (3 - [N-acetyl-N-butyl]-aminopropionic acid ethyl ester) or icaridin (1-pipecolic acid, 2 - (2-hydroxyethyl)-1-methylpropyl ester ). For people who sleep in the daytime, especially for small children, the sick and the elderly, a good defense can be insecticide treated mosquito nets, VIDEO:
