Last update: October 21, 2020, Wuhan virus cases: 41,89,138
Due to one or more of the following sources:
- Direct contact with positive people containing 2019-nCoV;
- To and from an area with a high proportion of people with Corona disease;
- Contact with people from epidemic areas or people that visited Corona-infected patients (over 99% of the people infected with Corona are from China, 31 provinces and cities in China all have 2019-nCoV);
- Contact or communication; eating and drinking together; shaking hands with people infected with 2019-nCoV while people infected with Corona do not have masks, gloves and/or infected with 2019-nCoV but no signs of influenza;
- Contact with people who have been close to Corona positive people;
- Contact with friends, relatives, people who communicate, contact with prior patients who have had any symptoms. There are cases of Corona infection that don’t display clinical signs.
The clinical symptoms manifest with those who are infected with Corona virus are quite similar to those of the common cold:
Symptom 1: Cough, sore throat, runny nose, headache, shortness of breath;
Symptom 2: Fever above 38 degrees;
Symptom 3: Muscle weakness, body aches.
Note: According to the State media, many cases of Corona infection do not have clinical manifestations, until the test is positive for 2019-nCoV.
The new Corona virus has been labeled by the WHO as 2019-nCoV. Coronavirus usually causes the symptoms of a common cold, infection of the nose, sinuses or sore throat and spreads through sneezing and coughing. However, it can lead to acute and fatal pneumonia.
The virus attacks healthy cells that weaken the immune system, thereby enabling bacteria to attack the body and form inflammatory diseases.
Corona virus is dozens of times smaller than bacteria (several dozen times smaller than nanometers) and is only seen under electron microscopes. The virus itself cannot duplicate or exist independently outside the environment for long periods of time (the virus lasts for about 5 days in the natural environment). The virus develops by invading healthy cells. Corona's enzyme doubles, thereby producing new viral enzymes. Corona's enzyme grows and continues to invade, attacking other healthy cells and causing the body to lose resistance.
Most deaths from Corona virus suffer from underlying diseases. Background diseases are simply understood as cases before Corona infection that has caused cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes ... or weakened body.
The priority order in the prevention and control of Wuhan virus infection is arranged from top to bottom:
- Conduct hygienic eating, boiling and drinking food, fluids and resting in moderation;
- Enhance exercise;
- Eat raw garlic (about a few cloves) at every meal;
- Take 1 teaspoon of honey before going to work and before going to bed (at night);
- Use natural foods with complementary nature (eg bird's nest);
- Wash your hands clean before eating and before touching parts of the body (face, limbs ...);
- Frequently use masks during communication, work or/and contact with colleagues at the workplace;
- Clean your masks with soap before use (with cloth masks);
- Use medical gloves during work or / and contact with working tools where there are sources of infection (as stated in part 1);
- Regular cleaning, disinfecting accommodation, workplace.
- When coughing, absolutely do not cover your mouth with your hands or elbows, use a personal handkerchief instead (wash the towel daily before use) or cover your mouth and nose with a tissue. After using paper napkins, throw them in the trash or toilet then flush;
- Do not spit or blow your nose in public places;
- If you find yourself having flu like symptoms, you should be isolated and self-treated. After about three days if the body still has high and constant fevers (over 38 degrees), shortness of breath, it is necessary to go to a hospital or a medical center for examination. It is compulsory to wear a medical mask when going to a medical center, using medical gloves;
- Use masks correctly. With cloth masks need to be washed daily with soapy water. When removing the mask, only have contact with the strap. Do not have contact with the mask’s surface as there might be Corona virus on it.
The negligence and subjectivity of the Wuhan government in China spread. Corona virus to 217 countries around the world.
- Minimize eating out, especially where many people from different regions gather;
- Do not use fresh foods, foods from wild animals or from unknown places (dog and cat meat from theft ...);
- Regularly clean houses, workplaces;
- Keep your home well ventilated, especially on sunny days. Sunlight and temperature will soon kill the virus;
- Minimize the use of public transportation;
- Minimize going to crowded places, especially in areas in close vicinity to the source of infection (as stated in part 1).
Wash your hands often with soap to remove viruses and other harmful bacteria.
Cloth masks and other masks all work to prevent the virus from spreading.
