Systematic deep approach and the perseverance survey of COVID-۱۹ virus on non-living surfaces and the efficacy of sanitizers in high-contact surfaces: A case study in the oil and gas capital city north shore of Persian Gulf, Iran

Background: The ongoing COVID-۱۹ pandemic has emphasized the significance of understanding the role of commonly contacted surfaces in the virus circulation. This study aimed to examine the contamination levels of the COVID-۱۹ virus on repeatedly manipulated surfaces within urban areas. Methods: We have conducted a study based on a systematic review and used it to choose a methodology, compare, and interpret the data. In this research, ۲۲ samples were obtained from diverse surfaces in the environment, both before and after the implementation of sanitizer protocols. Results: The results obtained from sampling and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis conducted before sanitizers revealed that out of the ۲۲ samples, ۴ cases (۱۸.۱۸%) tested positive. However, none of the ۲۲ samples showed any positive cases following the sanitizer process. Conclusion: By conducting a comprehensive analysis, this research contributes to the existing body of knowledge regarding the effectiveness of sanitizer measures in mitigating the spread of the virus in urban environments.
