Coronavirus pandemic is now spreading all over the world day by day. Governments are taking important steps to protect their countries. The COVID-19 belongs to a group of viruses that causes symptoms ranging from the common cold to severe acute respiratory infections. It has been spreading between people in close contact via respiratory droplets typically when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
Tips to prevent COVID-19 infection
- Wash your hands and maintain respiratory hygiene
- Wear masks when going out of your home
- Motivate those people who are having common flu like symptoms to cover their nose and mouth coughing or sneezing
- Wash hands after contact with respiratory secretions
- Use PPE kits [mask, gown, and gloves] to avoid contact with the patient’s blood and other body secretions
- Don’t share food, drinks, glasses, utensils, towels and other household items with others
How does contact tracing help to decrease the spread of coronavirus?
Contact tracing is beneficial to prevent transmission of coronavirus by quickly identifying and informing people who may be infected and contagious so that community spreading can be stopped. Due to COVID-19 infection, a person may be contagious 48 to 72 hours before they start to experience symptoms. The contacts are notified about their exposures. Doctors are instructed to isolate suspected people for a period of 14 to 21 days and to seek medical attention as needed if they experience symptoms in the quarantine period.
Importance of social distancing and wearing face masks
Due to COVID-19 any infected person, with or without symptoms, could spread the virus by touching a surface. It remains on that surface and if someone else touches it and then touches his mouth, nose or eyes then the virus will transmit to that person. That's why it is very important to avoid touching public surfaces. Social distancing decreases the spread of a novel coronavirus.
The world health organization (WHO) recommends people to wear masks when going out in public. Because this virus spreads when someone breathes in the air which contains droplets of the virus that is produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. N-95 masks are effective, but these masks are available in short supply and should be reserved for healthcare workers only. However, masks are important when they are tight-fitting and cover your entire nose and mouth. They protect you from touching your face and mouth.
