The routine surface testing strengthens the existing hygiene measures and sanitation protocols by providing an early indication of COVID-19 contamination and reassuring the safety of employees, customers, and visitors in various sectors and places. Though the surface testing is complementary to the existing preventive measures, it is a necessary action that has to be taken in order for a company or organization to be fully compliant with the COVID-19 safety measures and protocols and to minimize the infection risk.
