GERSON TO ASSIST GOVERNMENTS
IN COMBATING H5N1 BIRD FLU VIRUS
October 13, 2005
Middleboro, MA,
- The Louis M. Gerson Co., Inc., is extending
its supply agreements with European governmental agencies to supply CE approved
respirators to help combat the massive spread of H5N1 bird flu virus to human
beings.
The H5N1 bird flu virus has been the cause of at least 65 human deaths since 2003,
according to the World Health Organization (WHO). The capacity of the bird flu virus to be
transmitted from animal-to-human and human-to-human has spurred the requests by governments
worldwide for assistance. Gerson is one of the world’s leading suppliers of NIOSH and CE
approved disposable particulate respirators for healthcare and industrial use.
