[Influenza ・ Let's prevent new coronavirus infection ！ ]
In winter, when temperatures are lower, the air is drier and infectious diseases are more prevalent. Let's take thorough preventive measures to stay healthy.
z Symptoms ： Influenza causes rapid onset of symptoms such as fever over 38℃, headache, joint pain, and general malaise. The new coronavirus is characterized by a wide range of severity from asymptomatic to severe, although malaise, joint pain, cough, olfactory and taste disturbances, etc. are present.
z Preventive measures ：
1. Vaccination before an epidemic
Vaccines are effective in reducing the risk of developing the disease and preventing severe illness if it does occur.
2. Frequent hand washing
Research data shows that rinsing with soap or hand soap for 10 seconds followed by rinsing under running water for 15 seconds reduces viruses to 0.01%. Wash your hands carefully.
3. Maintain adequate humidity
When the air becomes dry, the protective function of the airway mucosa is reduced. In a particularly dry room, use a humidifier to maintain an appropriate humidity （ of 50-60% ）.
4. Adequate rest and a well-balanced diet
Between 10:00 pm and 2:00 am, the secretion of growth hormones that help recover from fatigue and strengthen immune functions is most active, so do not stay up late and get plenty of sleep. In order to increase the body's resistance, be sure to get enough rest and eat a well-balanced diet on a regular basis.
