"El virus del Zika es devastador y sigue extendiéndose. Tenemos la responsabilidad de ayudar donde podamos, en particular a las personas de alto riesgo. La gente de SC Johnson tiene el firme compromiso de ayudar a las familias necesitadas a protegerse contra los mosquitos que pueden transmitir el Zika", dijo Fisk Johnson, presidente del consejo administrativo y director ejecutivo de SC Johnson.

En febrero, SC Johnson envío a los CDC un donativo inicial de OFF!® para satisfacer una necesidad inmediata de recursos. Los productos se utilizaron para armar 5000 kits que ya se han distribuido. Las unidades adicionales de repelente personal OFF!®, que contiene DEET, se incluirán en más kits de prevención del Zika distribuidos por los CDC. Los kits contienen materiales educativos, productos y herramientas para ayudar a prevenir el contagio y la transmisión de Zika.

Este donativo específico a los CDC es el primer esfuerzo como parte del compromiso de la empresa familiar de donar, como mínimo, USD 15 millones durante el próximo año para proveer productos que ayuden a las familias necesitadas a combatir mosquitos que pudieran transmitir el virus del Zika. Los CDC de los Estados Unidos han estado a la vanguardia en la emisión de recursos educativos sobre el virus del Zika y siguen encabezando las iniciativas para atender las necesidades de prevención en los Estados Unidos.

SC Johnson es el mayor fabricante de repelentes de insectos e insecticidas domésticos en el mundo, con productos como OFF!®, Raid®, Autan® y Baygon®. Durante más de 50 años, los entomólogos de SC Johnson han estudiado insectos en el Centro de Investigación Entomológica en Racine, Wisconsin, el centro privado de investigación sobre entomología urbana más grande del mundo. Con sus investigaciones, ayudan a SC Johnson a crear productos en los que pueden confiar los consumidores, dándoles el producto ideal para sus necesidades de control de plagas.
