With the spread of the new crown pneumonia epidemic around the world, many overseas Chinese have begun a life of war.

How to do out-of-door protection, what to buy at home, what to do during quarantine, etc. have become the immediate problems.

The lives of Americans in the epidemic

What should be done to prevent the "epidemic" overseas from being scientifically feasible?

Xiaoqiao (ID qiaowangzhongguo) has compiled a guide full of dry goods for you today, come and see!

Protection Knowledge

Xiaoqiao compiled the most frequent protection knowledge released by embassies and consulates abroad for your reference, mainly including the following aspects.

Reduce going out and protect:

No gathering, little contact, and no movement are the most effective preventive measures. During the epidemic, try not to take cruises, planes, buses and other closed transportation to avoid cross infection.

If you really need to go out, you must take protective measures. Keep the indoor environment more than 1 meter away from others, keep away from people who cough, sneeze and fever, and wear masks as appropriate.

How to choose a mask? How to wear it? Listen to what the CDC experts say.

Maintain good hygiene and wash your hands frequently:

The first of the World Health Organization's recommendations for protection against a new coronavirus is washing hands.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also says to wash hands with soap and water, alcohol-based hand sanitizers, etc. for at least 20 seconds.

People wash their hands at home

Other measures to be aware of include: avoid touching the eyes, mouth, nose with unwashed hands; cleaning and disinfecting frequently touched items and their surfaces; using paper towels and throwing them into the trash when you cough or sneeze Wait.

Promote the use of public chopsticks and spoons:

Academician Zhong Nanshan emphasized that family chopsticks should be used for family meals.

If necessary, you can adopt a meal-sharing system instead of using private chopsticks to encourage food; encourage children to eat independently, do not use their mouths to blow children's food, help children chew food, feed children mouth-to-mouth, and share tableware with children.

Isolation Life

For most people, the days of busyness suddenly come to a halt, and it's a little bit helpless. Rarely, what should I do and pay attention to for a long time? See what the experts say.

Regular work and rest:

Jiang Changqing, deputy director of the Psychological Counselor Working Committee of the Chinese Psychological Association and Wang Pengyu, a psychotherapist at Beijing Anding Hospital, said that during isolation, the public must maintain a stable and healthy lifestyle, good social relations, and actively and rationally respond to the epidemic. They point out:

During the period of quarantine, the public should actively treat life, maintain the original habits of rest and rest as much as possible, live at the original rhythm, get up on time, work on time, eat on time, rest on time, and return to the normal life track.

On this basis, it is also necessary to establish good living and hygiene habits, pay attention to a good diet, ensure sleep, and do not try to relieve tension through the use of tobacco and alcohol.

Maintain good social relations:

Jiang Changqing and Wang Pengxuan also said that they must maintain good social relations and support each other during the epidemic.

With the extension of prevention and control time, mutual support can enable people to cope with difficulties more lastingly.

Home life during isolation

Faced with the risks of the epidemic, close family ties and social support are important sources of "security."

Keep in touch with relatives and friends at least once a day, learn what your friends are doing at this time, and find ways to help each other.

Emergency Articles

During the epidemic, uncertain factors increased, and many overseas compatriots encountered telecommunications fraud, difficulty in seeing a doctor, and discrimination. Xiaoqiao will help you.

Get medical treatment:

With the increase in the number of confirmed diagnoses worldwide, overseas Chinese and students studying abroad will inevitably worry about their health. What if I get sick overseas? What if you suspect you are infected? What should I do if I don't understand the language? Want to go offline for medical treatment?

Professor Zhang Wenhong of Huashan Hospital once said that the key to judging whether to go to the hospital is dyspnea. "You feel that you have a little difficulty breathing. This is the first point. The second point is that you can't move a little bit when you go up the stairs. A little out of reach. "

If you can't judge, you can take online consultation. At present, Tencent, Alibaba, and Baidu in China have launched cloud consultation. For detailed online consultation methods, you can refer to the "New Crown Pneumonia Medical Guide" issued by Xiaoqiao. .

In addition, when going offline for medical treatment, everyone should first determine the local new coronary pneumonia designated hospital from the websites of the local embassies and consulates and the government health department, and then make an appointment. When visiting a doctor offline, pay attention to isolation on the road.

Violence and discrimination:

Recently, Chinese citizens have encountered incidents of violence and discrimination overseas. If they are unfortunately exposed to discrimination and violence overseas, everyone should put their own safety first, deal with provocations as much as possible, keep information flowing and confirm their safety. He then contacted the police and the Chinese embassy while seeking help from a lawyer.

In case of epidemic fraud:

With the outbreak of the epidemic worldwide, many criminals have used the epidemic to commit fraud.

The scammer routine is constantly escalating. Some people claim that they have urgent supplies for epidemic prevention, some people can help donate to the Red Cross, and some people pretend to be robbers of government workers.

If you receive such information, unknown phone calls or emails during the epidemic, it is recommended that you verify it before making a decision.

For more fraudulent routines, you can also see the "Beware!" Here's the routine of overseas epidemic fraud ... ".

In the end, I hope overseas Chinese and overseas students can safely and healthily spend this special period!
