    Resumo

    GRAY, C L  e  VAN NIEKERK, A. The use of disinfection tunnels or disinfectant spraying of humans as a measure to reduce the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. SAMJ, S. Afr. med. j. [online]. 2020, vol.110, n.8, pp.751-752. ISSN 2078-5135.  https://doi.org/10.7196/SAMJ.2020.v110i8.14995.

    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.
