Dear Querycat friend I know that I am at the wrong address, but, I really believe that my idea can help millions who do not have the money, or do not want to buy many separated tools. It can change the World, it can help as many people as possible.... It is the best way to help millions who share manicure and pedicure tools to avoid cross diseases contamination. People should always avoid sharing these tools. Perhaps you can help me to find a manufacturer for my novel product to implant this idea. My idea is to improve health quality for millions, it is a cheap product which for a low price can be affordable to all social classes and so be used as an individual tool, as an own manicure and pedicure kit, reducing by millions the new cross-infection cases. I came to the conclusion that my product can improve life for millions, because, after speaking with many dermatologists and reading several scientific articles about nail care contaminations, the results proved that millions are being contaminated daily. This problem with sharing tools, is a real public health threat, but very little is divulgated and mentioned due to several reasons. One of the facts is that there was no solution for this problem until now. How can all the manicure users only utilize right sterilized tools? State regulatory committees seldom use dermatological concepts in their cosmetology laws. Sharing tools is responsible for millions who are suffering and each day more are being affected. Even users at the most sophisticated nail salons, after tools are autoclaved sterilized (this is the only effective way to sterilize right these tools, but only when the long time process is correctly done), are being contaminated with dangerous diseases. These problems can occur, when a tiny cut, a cracked or filed skin, a torn cuticle, a fluid leaks (by cutting nails to close to the nail’s bed), or the so common sick nails are treated. Beside autoclave, all the other sterilization methods in use, they more frequently than we can imagine, they do not kill all infections, many contaminations are escaping and with a high incidence infecting people with ordinary; mycosis (nail fungus, athlete’s foot, etc.), herpes, warts, paronychias, erysipelas, bacterial infections (Strepto, Staphylo and Pseudomonas), piogenic granuloma, and other viral infections, like, the worst case, with hepatitis. How the super-bacteria MRSA USA 300 is infecting, is not clear yet, there is not enough research on it. But, one fact is clear, when so many ordinary diseases are infecting people, the Hepatitis B, C (discovered in 1989), D and G (discovered in 1995) viruses are certainly also infecting users of shared tools. Worldwide 400 million people are already infected with one of these viruses and most do not know it. Many are infecting others through tools which are poorly sterilized, including manicure tools. These viruses are difficult to kill and normal methods of sterilizations frequently leave them active for a long time. Once a person is infected, it is difficult to notice it at the beginning or to trace the virus back to manicure. Physicians have to suppose a diagnosis, these hepatitis viruses turn into an active disease some 20 years after contamination, making the source of the disease unknown. Nail technicians know very well that they are contaminating people, but they do not assume this easily, they are too afraid to change their working habits and to loose money in this low paying service. My idea is a patented nail clipper with 10 or more tools on it, tools which perform at least 18 different functions for nails, cuticles and finger skin care. It is a instrument whose tools are located on it’s frontal and lateral side, between it’s 2 plates and on it’s lever and plates. It is the most price affordable kit of tools, it is a complete set, it is the best way to do a perfect and fast manicure, and it offers among all alternatives the fastest solution to implement prevention in all places worldwide. It is a cheap and easy to use tool. This tool is the solution to prevent cross contaminations, it is the most affordable kit for nail treatments, it does not need a strong sterilization, so the use the tools last longer (it is for individual use), and it can be substituted by a cheap new one when blades get dull. It offers the simplest and easiest solution to implant campaigns with the lowest investments among all alternatives. Stores selling it, they can make alerting campaigns through exposed boards, tags fixed on the product, in web sites, through the media, through medical articles, and through trade shows and exhibitions. Health organizations and health oriented politicians by using this tool, they can mention that they found the first cheap solution to do prevention. So they are saving lives, health treatments and people’s suffering. Even governments can be influenced by this people’s conscious awareness and introduce stronger rules, campaigns and to do more scientific researches on this fact to alert people. If they do it, huge sums in treatments will be avoided For the first time a single cheap tool is used to replace different and pricey separated tools, making it the most cost effective and efficient tool for professional nail technicians and all normal users to avoid cross contaminations. People of poor communities can buy it for just some few dollars and have their own individual complete tool. Governments and health insurers can distribute some for free to enhance people’s knowledge that this tool exists and whole communities can avoid contaminations. This will lower the cost with treatments, tool’s acquisition price, people’s suffering and reduce the number of death from Hepatitis. To keep this tool for individual use, it can be kept in an envelope with a name on it, with a tag on it, or it can be carried in a small purse or pocket by its owner. It is an all in one small tool. The model without a knife can even be carried inside a passenger airplane. For conscious consumers it is the most environmentally correct tool. To manufacture it, it consumes less material, labor, time, energy and natural resources. It benefits people’s spending, sterilization expenses, maintenance amd reposition costs, health safety and helps the environment.
