(March 13, 2020) \u2014 Today, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is releasing an expanded list of EPA-registered disinfectant products that have qualified for use against SARS-CoV-2, the novel coronavirus that causes COVID-19. The list contains nearly 200 additional products\u2014including 40 new products that went through the agency\u2019s expedited review process. The agency also made key enhancements to the web-based list to improve its usefulness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDuring this pandemic, it\u2019s important that people can easily find the information they\u2019re looking for when choosing and using a surface disinfectant,\u201d said EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler. \u201cWith this expanded list, EPA is making sure Americans have greater access to as many effective and approved surface disinfectant products as possible and that they have the information at their fingertips to use them effectively.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While disinfectant products on this list have not been tested specifically against SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19, they are expected to be effective against SARS-CoV-2 because they have been tested and proven effective on either a harder-to-kill virus or against another human coronavirus similar to SARS-CoV-2.<\/p>\n<p>The product list has also been updated to include the product\u2019s active ingredient and the amount of time the surface should remain wet to be effective against the given pathogen.<\/p>\n<p>To make the list more consumer friendly, information in the table is now sortable, searchable and printable, and can be easily viewed on a mobile device.<\/p>\n<p>These additions make it easier for consumers to find surface disinfectants and instructions for using them effectively against SARS-CoV-2.<\/p>\n<p><a
