　　In the process of our travel, first, we must plan well, especially when waiting for the bus by public transportation, plan the time well, and try to stay as short as possible in places where people gather.

Second, good protection must be done. For example, in the confined space of airplanes and trains, masks must be worn all the way to prevent direct respiratory droplets from spreading.

　　Of course, washing hands is also very important, because we often touch the surfaces of public objects, and we must wash our hands after touching other surfaces before meals to prevent indirect contact transmission of new coronaviruses or other viral pathogens.

Make a good route plan for self-driving travel during the Spring Festival

　　During self-driving trips, first, prepare some appropriate medicines and protective equipment, including masks, wet wipes, hand sanitizers, and common antipyretic drugs.

Second, it is necessary to do a good job in route planning, especially to understand the current epidemic situation of the destination.

　　If you have some respiratory symptoms during the travel, don't be nervous, you can use the rapid antigen detection reagent for detection.

If it is positive, the backup driver can be allowed to drive, so that the positive tester can get enough rest and recovery, and other people in the same car should take good protection.

If the symptoms of a person with symptoms are severe, seek medical treatment in a timely manner.

　　During the Spring Festival travel season, there will be a lot of people. In the rest area of ​​the highway, you should also wear a mask and take precautions, including washing your hands and avoiding more contact with other people to minimize the risk of respiratory infections.
