Disinfection tunnels, also known as walk-through sanitization or misting tunnels, are structures equipped with atomizing nozzles that spray disinfectants onto individuals or objects passing through them. These tunnels gained prominence during public health crises, aimed at reducing the spread of pathogens on clothing and exposed skin. The disinfectant typically used is a fine mist of a diluted broad-spectrum disinfectant. While they offer a perceived sense of security, their effectiveness in clinical settings for sterilizing individuals or preventing disease transmission is limited and often debated. They are generally not recommended for routine medical sterilization due to concerns about the safety and efficacy of aerosolized disinfectants on human skin, eyes, and respiratory systems. Their primary application tends to be in non-medical public access points for superficial disinfection rather than medical-grade sterilization.
