How to prevent ?

The three basic links of the epidemic of infectious diseases are the source of infection, the route of transmission, and the susceptible population. Our various measures to prevent infectious diseases are aimed at one of the three basic links, and are divided into the following three aspects:

1.Control the source of infection

Infectious patients should be detected, diagnosed, reported, treated, and isolated as early as possible to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. Animals suffering from infectious diseases are also sources of infection, and they should also be dealt with in a timely manner.

2.The method of cutting off the transmission route mainly focuses on personal hygiene and environmental hygiene.

Eliminating vectors that transmit diseases and carrying out some necessary disinfection work can deprive pathogens of the opportunity to infect healthy people.

3.Protection of Vulnerable Persons During the epidemic period

Attention should be paid to protecting vulnerable persons, preventing them from coming into contact with infectious sources, and vaccination should be carried out to improve the resistance of vulnerable populations. For susceptible individuals, they should actively participate in sports, exercise, and enhance their resistance to disease.

Specific measures

1.Eat a reasonable diet, increase nutrition, drink more water, consume sufficient vitamins, and eat more foods rich in high-quality protein, sugars, and trace elements, such as lean meat, poultry eggs, dates, honey, and fresh vegetables and fruits; Actively participate in physical exercise, go to the suburbs and outdoors to breathe fresh air, walk, jog, do exercises, fight boxing, etc. every day, so that the body’s blood flow is unblocked, muscles and bones are stretched, and the physique is strengthened.

2.Wash your hands frequently and thoroughly with flowing water, including wiping your hands without using a dirty towel. Open windows every day to ventilate and keep the indoor air fresh, especially in dormitories and classrooms.

3.Reasonably arrange work and rest to achieve a regular life; Be careful not to get too tired and prevent colds, so as not to reduce your resistance to disease.

4.Pay attention to personal hygiene and do not spit or sneeze casually. Avoid contacting infectious patients and try not to reach epidemic areas of infectious diseases.

5.Get medical attention in time if you have fever or other discomfort; When visiting a hospital, it is best to wear a mask and wash hands after returning home to avoid cross infection.
