New type pneumonia prevention "hand washing" and "seki etiquette" are important January 28 20:06

Coronaviruses, like the flu and the cold, are transmitted by flying coughs and sneezes.

The WHO's recommended preventive measures and measures to prevent spread are, like general infectious diseases, washing hands and etiquette etiquette.

▽ Hand wash should be thoroughly washed with soap and running water for at least 20 seconds, between fingers and gaps between nails.

If you cannot wash your hands, it is also effective to disinfect your hands with a disinfectant such as alcohol.

The virus on the hand comes in through the eyes, mouth, and nose. Do not touch your face until you wash your hands.

人 Those with symptoms such as coughs and sneezing must thoroughly enforce cough etiquette in order not to spread the infection.

When coughing or sneezing, cover your mouth with a tissue or arm instead of your palm. Discard the used tissue immediately and wash your hands. If you cover your mouth with the palm of your hand, you will get a virus on your hand.

The use of masks is common in Japan, but putting on masks correctly is also effective in cough etiquette.

ほ か In addition, it is said that we can cope with the same preventive measures as influenza, such as avoiding crowds and not going out when we are sick.

If you suspect that you are infected with a new type of coronavirus due to symptoms such as fever, please do not call a medical institution but call us in advance.
