New coronavirus-infected pneumonia currently lacks effective treatments. The management of daily life focuses on the prevention of infection and the effective isolation of suspected and confirmed cases.
Home Care
New coronavirus-infected pneumonia has a family gathering phenomenon, and if there are suspected symptoms, go to the infectious department for treatment in time. It needs to be isolated and treated in a hospital with effective isolation and protective conditions.
Daily Life Management
·Paying attention to wearing masks in public places and striving for personal protection is a practical approach;
·Pay attention to hand hygiene, wash your hands frequently, wash your hands with soap or water, or hand disinfectants containing alcohol;
·Pay attention to proper cough etiquette. Do not cover your hands with sneezing. Cover with elbows or paper towels.
·Pay attention to drink plenty of water, rest more, avoid staying up late, and improve individual immunity;
·Ventilation should be maintained in living and working environments;
·Eat properly and thoroughly cook meat and eggs during cooking to avoid contact with wild animals and poultry and livestock without protection;
·Do not go to crowds and avoid close contact with anyone with cold or flu-like symptoms.
Daily Condition Monitoring
Pay attention to monitoring body temperature. Seek timely consultation if you have fever, fatigue, or cough. If you have a history of living or travelling in the epidemic area (Wuhan) within two weeks before the onset of illness, have a history of contact with a confirmed or suspected patient, or have symptoms of collective illness, you need to seek medical treatment and take active isolation.
Special Considerations
The incubation period of this disease can be 1 to 2 weeks. If a confirmed or suspected patient has a history of exposure, even if there are no symptoms such as fever, active isolation is required.
The release of isolation requires that the body temperature return to normal for more than 3 days, the respiratory symptoms improve significantly, and the pathogen detection is negative for 2 consecutive times (at least 1 day apart).
Prevention
There is currently no effective vaccine prevention method for pneumonitis infected by the new coronavirus.
Personal protection is the most practical way. This includes not going to crowds, washing hands, drinking plenty of water, and taking rest.
