It is very likely the vaccine will end the pandemic but the rollout will not be complete and the spreading of the virus will not stop until at least next summer , and it could be later

The virus is spreading faster than it ever has during the entire pandemic right now and that will continue to get greater and greater over the next few months.

Because the virus is spreading so easily and so fast right now, every company in America, even if you have been safe up until now is in extreme danger of an outbreak that will shut down the company. 1000’s of businesses are closing daily due to COVID outbreaks.  

This is completely preventable with the unique, proprietary, Stop Covid Spread At Work System

There are four reasons that the virus is so severe and spreading at this time

1. Quarantine fatigue Even though virtually everyone knows that the virus is still severe and spreading, people have quarantine In their personal lives they are socializing and shopping and at work they're not taking the appropriate precautions. Many people have not been taking extensive precautions and did not get sick up until now, so they're not taking precautions seriously.
2. More contagious virus mutation You could have been exposed to the original strain of covid dozens or even hundreds of times and though the virus entered your body you did not get infected. The new mutated version of covid virus will cause you to become infected very easily if you are exposed to the virus. This makes it much easier to get infected and to become sick with COVID disease.
3. People's reaction to the vaccine Because an effective vaccine has been developed and is now being distributed and administered, many people think the pandemic is over and they are no longer taking precautions to not get infected. It is easier than ever to get infected and it is spreading faster than it ever has before and you must be vigilant until you become vaccinated, which for most of the workforce will not be until next summer due to the rollout.
4. The standard preventive advice we have been given is not enough. Even before the vaccine was developed and the mutation which makes it more contagious came to America, the number of new cases, deaths, and companies closing from COVID outbreaks was steadily increasing. The reason for this is the official advice that we have been given was to wash our hands, not touch our face, where a mask and socially distant. This is not enough. It is correct but it does not take into account all the paths of transmission.

Every company in America needs to implement the Stop Covid Spread Work System. The reason is it will train the workers to recognize and take action to prevent all the potential invisible possible paths of transmission, and will influence them to actually do it. It also includes procedures to make the building and the structure of the workforce interaction suppressive to the virus.

Everyone is hearing that the mutation of the COVID virus is more contagious, but most do not understand why it is more contagious and what that practically means to us. Here is the reason.

The variant is referred to as “SARS-CoV-2 VOC 202012/01

The virus mutation binds more tightly to the human (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) ) receptor and then enters the human cell.

Here is what that practically means, and why it is much easier to get infected!

The original form of COVID required a large number of virus to enter the body because the virus did not easily bind to the human receptors. You are not infected until the virus binds to the receptors and enters the persons cells.

If the original form of the virus entered your body, and not enough of them bonded to the receptors, you would not get sick and the virus would be cleaned from your body fluids by your excretory system (liver, kidney, skin, lungs) and you stayed healthy. Many people over the last 10 months have been exposed to the virus many times, it entered their body, but because it did not bind to the receptors, the person did not get sick and they did not infect others.

The new variation has one main change, a protein spike in the virus that binds tightly and easily to the human receptor sites and it then enters the cells and the person becomes infected.

This means that you need many less viruses to enter your body, and because they bind so easily to the receptors, you get infected more easily.

Another new behavior of the mutated virus is a much heavier load or number of viruses in the body. This is because the virus can not replicate until it enters a human cell. With so many viruses entering more cells where they then can replicate, there is a much higher concentration of virus so the infected person spreads more virus which can infect others.

If you own a business, and have workers, with the new mutation they can more easily get infected outside of work, and people working together can more easily and quickly spread the virus from one person to many.

Good news…..The behavior of the illness once you are infected has not changed, and the effect of the vaccine on the new virus seems to be the same as to the original virus.

This means that there will not be a change in the safety procedures to avoid becoming infected with COVID. It is simply more important to do them consistently even better than we have in the past.  

Stop Covid Spread at Work is by far the most effective system to identify all sources of viral spread, and train and influence your workers to apply the safest behaviors. You will predictably prevent the virus from entering your business, and if it does enter your business, to prevent it spreading and becoming an outbreak which could impact or close your business. The reason this program is so effective is:

1. It teaches the employees all of the potential yet invisible ways they can get, give or spread the virus, and what to do to prevent it.
2. It is a proven system to influence people’s behavior to actually do what they learn
3. It contains a reminder system to keep them using the safe behaviors daily until the pandemic ends

The pandemic will end. You must prevent the virus from infecting your workforce and impacting your business until that time.

It is not just for COVID safe behavior. We speak with employers all over the world and this is a universal problem. Getting workers to consistently apply a behavior desired by management.

To answer your question about influencing your workers to use safe COVID behavior, let me explain how we have solved this problem for the last 20 years.

My company Best Performance Systems trains and influences workers to prevent injury and improve productivity. We have combined the knowledge of several different approaches and have created a system so successful that we are asked to teach it at many professional conferences.  We have had a 100% success for 15 years with an average injury cost reduction of 50 to 90%.

Recognizing that one of the major challenges to keeping companies COVID safe is influencing the workers to apply consistently and daily the safe behaviors, we implement the exact same systems that have gotten such unique and superior results in injury prevention.                      Here are the steps to achieve that:

Behavior Modification Training This is a style of training which is based on proven science and psychology to influence adults to believe that something is beneficial to them, to understand it, to remember it, to make the personal choice to embrace the new knowledge and to apply it. This bypasses the natural response of most people to resist change or new procedures. People do not argue with themselves, so with this system of training they make the decision to embrace the new behaviors.

Reminder Program People are addicted to their old habits. It is human nature that after as little as a few days or as much as a few months they return to their old habits. We have created a reminder system of mini trainings. These are videos that are between 10 seconds and 90 seconds long which are a review of something the workers already learned in the original training. The supervisors simply showed them a few times per week to workers either in a group meeting before the shift starts or the supervisor’s smartphone as they go about their rounds. This keeps the workers reminded of the best technique, and the attitude to work safe top of mind every day until the pandemic ends.                                                                                                                                    

Reward Program  We provide a very simple system to reward workers each time they are caught by a supervisor or manager using COVID safe behavior. The actual time of the supervisor to implement and maintain this program is as little as five minutes per day. It is a proven scientific fact that people respond in an incredibly positive manner to simply being told they did a good job. This not only improves morale but influences the worker to continue applying the safe behavior for which they were rewarded.

There you have it. A simple proven system that will predictably influence your workers to apply COVID safe behavior, or any other behavior you want them to apply, daily and consistently.

We absolutely acknowledge and understand if decreased profits as a result of the economy impacted by the COVID virus makes it difficult to justify additional costs.

But not taking action that will predictably keep the virus from entering and impacting, possibly closing your company is far more costly than the cost of this program

The virus at the moment is spreading far faster that it ever has at anytime during the pandemic. The number of new cases, hospitalizations, deaths, and companies closing due to a COVID outbreak is at an all time high. Your company, in fact every company , regardless of a how safe and healthy they have been up until now, is in danger of being impacted by the far more contagious viral pandemic

It would be a mistake to play Russian roulette and hope that you'll be OK until the pandemic is ended by the vaccine. The soonest the vaccine will end the pandemic is late next summer and it could be much later

It would be a mistake for you to go for the COVID prevention program that is easiest, cheapest, or that simply fulfills the regulations.

The cost of The Stop COVID Spread At Work program for your entire company is less than the cost of dealing with one single employee who has become infected with COVID virus.

The costs of one employee with COVID could be the work comp for disability and medical costs, the time lost finding all the other workers he had contact with in the last 2 weeks, the cost of all of those people going home for a 2 week quarantine, the cost of additional people getting sick, the cost of replacing the workers who are not available to work, the cost of not having the people available who have specialized skills, the cost of a reduced operation and your not being able to fulfill the promises to your customers.

There is no program as effective as Stop COVID Spread At Work to keep your workers and your company  safe from now until the pandemic ends.

If cash flow is a concern the program can be bought outright and you own it or there is a minimal monthly fee to have access to it.

We are the solution to keep your workers and your company safe until this pandemic is over. We are not an expense, but a cost saving investment
