Some Things To Prevent Corona Virus. Coronavirus has attacked thousands of people in various countries and claimed lives. In order not to be infected by this infectious disease, there are several ways you can do to prevent transmission of the Corona virus. This you can later apply in everyday life. The cause of this outbreak is a new type of coronavirus called the 2019 coronavirus novel (2019-nCoV). This disease belongs to the same virus class as the virus that causes severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle-East respiratory syndrome (MERS). Corona virus infection called COVID-19 was first occurred in the city of Wuhan, China and has now been found in various countries. This virus is thought to originate from animals, such as bats and camels, and can be transmitted from animals to humans, as well as from humans to humans. Human transmission is most likely through sputum sparks when coughing or sneezing. When infected with the Corona virus, a person will experience flu-like symptoms, such as fever, cough, and runny nose. However, a few days afterward, people who develop corona virus infection can experience shortness of breath due to infection in the lungs (pneumonia). Until now, there has been no treatment that can cure Corona virus infection. Therefore, the World Health Organization (WHO) urges people not to look down on this disease and always take preventative measures. One way is to implement social distancing. Some steps that can be taken to prevent Corona virus infection, including:

Wash your hands properly Washing your hands properly is the simplest but effective way to prevent the spread of the 2019-nCoV virus. Wash your hands with running water and soap, for at least 20 seconds. Make sure all parts of the hand are washed thoroughly, including the back of the hand, wrist, between the fingers, and nails. After that, dry your hands using a tissue, clean towel, or hand dryer. If you are a commuter worker on public transportation, it will be difficult to find water and soap. You can clean your hands with a hand sanitizer. Use a hand sanitizer product with an alcohol content of at least 60% to be more effective at disinfecting germs. Wash your hands regularly, especially before and after eating, after using the toilet, after touching animals, taking out the trash, and after coughing or sneezing. Washing hands is also important before breastfeeding a baby or expressing milk.

Using a mask Many people use cloth masks to prevent Corona virus infection, even though the mask is not necessarily effective. In general, there are two types of masks that you can use to prevent Corona virus transmission, namely surgical masks and N95 masks. Surgical masks or surgical masks are disposable masks that are commonly used. This mask is easy to find, the price is affordable, and comfortable to wear, so many people use this mask when they are on their daily activities. The correct way to use a surgical mask is that the colored side of the mask should face outward, while the white inner side faces the face and covers the chin, nose and mouth. The white side is made of material that can absorb dirt and filter germs from the air. Although not entirely effective in preventing exposure to germs, the use of these masks can still reduce the risk of spreading infectious diseases, including Corona virus infections. The use of masks is recommended for people who are sick to prevent the spread of viruses and germs, rather than in healthy people. While the N95 mask is a type of mask that is used as one of the personal protective equipment or PPE for medical personnel who treat COVID-19 patients. When removing masks from the face, both surgical masks and N95 masks, avoid touching the front of the mask, because that part is full of germs attached. After removing the mask, wash your hands with soap or hand sanitizer, so that the hands are clean from germs that stick.

Maintain endurance A strong immune system can prevent various diseases. To maintain and increase endurance, you are advised to eat healthy foods, such as vegetables and fruits, and protein foods, such as eggs, fish, and lean meat. If you are bored with self-cooked food, you can buy ready-to-eat food or food at a restaurant through a delivery service, but make sure the food is clean and healthy. If necessary, you also increase the consumption of supplements as directed by your doctor. In addition, regular exercise, adequate sleep, not smoking, and not consuming alcoholic beverages can also increase endurance to avoid transmission of the Corona virus. Some information says that basking in the sun can also prevent C virus infection orona. Unfortunately this still needs further investigation.

Applying physical distancing and independent isolation Physical restrictions or physical distancing is one important step to break the chain of the spread of Corona virus. This can be done by not traveling out of the house, except for urgent or emergency needs, such as grocery shopping or medical treatment when sick. Physical restrictions are also carried out by keeping a minimum distance of 1 meter from other people and always wearing a mask, especially when doing activities in public places or crowds. During physical distancing, you also need to avoid contact with people who are sick, are suspected of being infected with the Corona virus, or have tested positive for COVID-19. If you have one of the mild symptoms of COVID-19, have a history of travel or have lived in an area affected by the Corona virus in the past 14 days, or have been in contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19, you are encouraged to do independent isolation. In addition, independent isolation is also recommended for people who are at high risk of being infected with the Corona virus, such as the elderly or people who have comorbidities, such as hypertension, diabetes, or a weak immune system.

Clean the house and carry out routine disinfection Apart from personal hygiene, maintaining the cleanliness of the house is also very important during the COVID-19 pandemic. This is because the Corona virus is proven to survive for hours and even days on the surface of an object. Therefore, the house must be regularly cleaned and thoroughly disinfected, including furniture and home appliances that are frequently touched, such as door handles, television remotes, water faucets, and countertops When cleaning or disinfecting, you need to use gloves and masks, and wash your hands with clean water and soap after cleaning the house. This is done to prevent transmission of the Corona virus that might occur. If you experience flu symptoms, such as coughing, fever, and colds, which are accompanied by weakness and shortness of breath, especially if in the last 2 weeks you have traveled to an area or country that is infected with Corona virus infection, immediately consult a doctor so that the cause can be ascertained and given proper handling.
