Health tip 1

Prevention of respiratory tract infections

Reason for concern: The weather continues to get cooler in October, and the temperature difference between day and night is large, which is the season of high incidence of respiratory infectious diseases, and the frequent flow of people during the National Day holiday is more conducive to the spread of infectious diseases, such as new coronavirus infection, influenza, etc.

Key populations: the elderly, children, pregnant women, and patients with underlying diseases.

Precautionary measures

1. Vaccination: The flu vaccine is the most effective means of preventing the flu.

2. Maintain good hygiene: wash hands frequently, open windows regularly for ventilation, and maintain indoor air circulation.

3. Do a good job of personal protection: increase or decrease clothing according to the temperature, avoid contact with patients with fever and cough, and wear masks when entering crowded and closed places.

Health Tip 2: Prevention of Dengue Fever

Reason of concern: September to November is the peak season for dengue fever, which is an acute infectious disease caused by dengue virus, mainly transmitted through the bite of the Aedes mosquito, and does not spread directly from person to person. At present, there is no vaccine to prevent dengue fever, and there is no specific antiviral drug once infected, and symptomatic and supportive treatment is mainly used.

Health tip three

Prevention of norovirus infectious diarrhea

Reason for concern: The high incidence of norovirus infection is from October to March of the following year, and with the increase in activities such as visiting relatives and friends and going out to dinner during the National Day holiday, the risk of disease is further increased. Norovirus has the characteristics of short incubation period, rapid mutation, strong environmental resistance, and diverse transmission routes. There is currently no vaccine and no cure.

Main symptoms: nausea, vomiting, fever, abdominal pain and diarrhea.
