Ebola Scare Boosts Demand For Xenex Germ-Zapping Robots: CEO

Some health experts have warned that it’s easier to get caught up in an Ebola panic than it is to contract the disease.

While only one person so far has died in the U.S. as a result of Ebola, more health officials are taking greater precautions to prevent the spread of the disease and other potentially lethal infections.

“The arrival of Ebola in the U.S. has served as a wake-up call for our hospitals and the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) that current infection prevention efforts aren’t enough,” Morris Miller, CEO of San Antonio-based Xenex, told me. “There’s been a significant spike in interest for our germ-zapping robots.”
