Abstract:
In endeavouring to mitigate the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, a concerning practice of spraying individuals with disinfectant via
so-called ‘disinfection tunnels’ has come to light. The Allergy Society of South Africa supports the World Health Organization in strongly
condemning all human spraying, owing to lack of efficacy and potential dangers, especially to patients with coexisting allergic conditions.
