Brand founder discovers world-first spray that kills COVID-19

Biologi founder, Ross Macdougald, is currently making headlines, thanks to his discovery of a world-first surface spray that kills COVID-19 within 90 seconds.

All other surface disinfectants take up to 10 minutes or longer to kill COVID-19, with some surface sprays not killing the virus at all.

The Australian-developed disinfectant is called ViroCLEAR and has a unique, non-toxic, non-irritant and alcohol-free formula that kills germs, bacteria and COVID-19 seven times faster than other products on the market, helping complement the rollout of COVID-19 vaccines.

ViroCLEAR will be made available as both a surface disinfectant and hand sanitiser to 5.5 million Australians in schools, universities, aged care homes and hospitality venues as a priority through March, before sufficient supplies are available to the broader community as early as the end of the month.
