1 Decontamination, Waste Handling & Transport for Cases of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) October 28, 2014
2 Topics 1. Transportation and disposal of Ebola waste from health-care and non-health care settings. 2. Addressing possible Ebola contamination at non-health care locations used or frequently visited by a person recently diagnosed with EVD. 2
3 Guidance on Ebola medical waste available for health-care settings Hospitals generate medical waste and already have handling & disposal plans. Protocols for hospital are similar to Ebola waste issues at non-health-care settings. 3
4 Available Guidance Interim Guidance for Environmental Infection Control in Hospitals for Ebola Virus, CDC. Ebola-Associated Waste Management, CDC. Guidance for Safe Handling of Human Remains of Ebola Patients in U. S. Hospitals and Mortuaries, CDC. 4
5 EVD Patient Waste (Sewage) Per CDC Sanitary sewers may be used for the safe disposal of patient waste U.S. sewage handling processes designed to inactivate infectious agents. Wastewater utility workers must practice sound hygiene when handling sewage 5
6 EVD Patient Waste (Sewage) DHS Interim Guidance on the Safe Disposal of Ebola Patient Waste in Sanitary Sewers Healthcare facilities should pre-treat patient waste in a toilet bowl with 1 cup full-strength bleach for at least 5 minutes before flushing. Pre-treatment should be performed only by HCP wearing appropriate PPE. GuidanceSafeDisposal.pdf 6
7 Transportation of Ebola medical waste Requirements for packaging and labelling of Category A infectious waste in guidance from the US Department of Transportation. (49 C.F.R., Parts ) 7
8 Existing guidance on handling and transport of Ebola medical waste Department of Transportation Guidance for Transporting Ebola Contaminated Items, a Category A Infectious Substance, US DOT PHMSA. DOT Guidance for Preparing Packages of Ebola Contaminated Waste for Transportation and Disposal, US DOT PHMSA. Transporting Infectious Substances Safely, US DOT PHMSA. 8
9 Disposal of Ebola medical waste Limited options for treatment to destroy virus Incineration, Microwave, Autoclave, Chemical Best option is incineration at approved facility. No in-state Ebola-ready disposal facilities identified that can receive medium to large amounts of Ebola waste. Two medical incinerators in adjacent states Clinton, Ill, and Rochester, Mn. 9
10 Guidance needed to address Ebola virus contamination in non-health-care settings
11 People with EVD when first contagiously ill and not in hospitals Symptoms can first occur in any setting Home Traveling (vehicles, aircraft, public transport) Offices, jails, schools, or other Concerns about contagion releases in uncontrolled environments. Immediate direct-contact infection of others Virus residuals left behind for latent direct-contact. Ebola virus viable up to 6 days 11
12 Ebola contamination in uncontrolled, non-health-care settings Issues Variety of settings for contamination to occur Clean-up of biological waste Environmental decontamination Safe and proper packaging of waste Transportation of waste Disposal of waste 12
13 Cleanup State of Wisconsin contracts for environmental cleanup of spills of hazardous substances. NO in-state contractors identified who are ready to conduct an Ebola cleanup. Contractors need to develop protocol, obtain equipment & materials, and train. Hazmat teams can help secure a site. National Guard 54 th Civil Support Team can address Weapons of Mass Destruction, but has limited capacity. 13
14 Worker Safety Use of appropriate PPE and safety practices. Safe decontamination, handling, and disposal of potentially contaminated materials. 14
15 Decontamination of Ebola Virus in Non-clinical Environments Settings with Ebola contamination should be considered a Human Health Hazard (Wisc Stat 254). LPHAs need to secure & placard the setting. Setting needs decontamination, disinfection, or other cleanup. 15
16 Decontamination of Ebola Virus in Non-clinical Environments DHS technical support available to LPHAs: Assess the location and situation. Develop site-specific cleanup strategy. Assist the Local Health Officer with writing cleanup/abatement orders. Help identify cleanup contractor. Ensure a complete cleanup occurs. Assist LPHA s with clearing a setting and writing clearance letter. 16
17 Decontamination of Ebola virus in Non-clinical Environments Guidance for Decontamination of: Residences, offices, personal possessions (soft goods, hard surfaces). Disinfection and Disposal of Household Goods Belonging to Patients Infected with Ebola Virus. USAPHC Technical Information Paper , Cleaning and Decontamination of Ebola on Surfaces, OSHA. Vehicles: Decontamination of Vehicles & Equipment Used for Transportation of Potential Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) Patients or Related Equipment. USAPHC Technical Information Paper , Aircraft: Interim Guidance about Ebola Infection for Airline Crews, Cleaning Personnel, and Cargo Personnel, CDC. Suspected Communicable Disease General Guidelines for Cleaning Crew, International Air Transport Association. 17
18 Summary DHS is developing guidance for the safe cleanup of Ebola-contamination at non-health-care locations. Properly packaged Ebola medical waste is free of virus on the outside of the containers and is safe for transport to disposal facilities. State agencies are collaborating to identify privatesector contractors who can offer services for the cleanup of Ebola-contamination. 18
