Tax Advisors, our clients are like family. And like you, during the past few weeks, I have been focused on doing the things I need to do to keep the clients and employees safe. I want to personally update you on those activities surrounding the situation with COVID-19 (coronavirus).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The safety of our entire Cook and Company family is our highest priority. With that in mind, I have taken several steps in my business response to this threat. I want you to feel confident in our ability to continue meeting your needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cook &amp; Co. Tax Advisors has adopted the latest technology in fighting airborne bacteria and viruses as I recently purchased and installed not one, but two Illuvia systems by Aerobiotix, a unique technology which utilizes ultraviolet energy to eliminate airborne pathogens. These are medical grade systems normally deployed in hospitals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3310\" src=\"https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"air-1\" class=\"wp-image-3310\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1-350x467.jpg 350w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1-680x907.jpg 680w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1-940x1254.jpg 940w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1-840x1120.jpg 840w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1-687x916.jpg 687w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1-414x552.jpg 414w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1-354x472.jpg 354w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-1.jpg 998w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tax Department<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"3311\" src=\"https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"air-2\" class=\"wp-image-3311\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2-350x467.jpg 350w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2-680x907.jpg 680w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2-300x400.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2-940x1254.jpg 940w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2-840x1120.jpg 840w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2-687x916.jpg 687w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2-414x552.jpg 414w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2-354x472.jpg 354w, https:\/\/cookco.us\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/air-2.jpg 998w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Front Office<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aerobiotix.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Statement-of-indications-based-on-CDC-guidelines.pdf\">Read the statement on Coronavirus and my Aerobiotix systems here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to deploying these devices that normally remove bacteria and germs from operating rooms, I have taken the following actions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Provided hand sanitizer throughout the office.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Installed plexi-glass dividers on all desks and counter-tops<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ramped up cleaning services, including wiping down door handles and flat surfaces with disinfectant.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Each evening we spray disinfectant throughout the office. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I encourage elbow bumps rather than hand shakes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please rest assured that I am monitoring this developing situation closely and the staff and I are prepared to navigate through these challenging circumstances.
