Influenza Vaccination Is The First Choice To Prevent Swine Flu

Wang stressed that the most effective way to prevent swine flu is to get the flu vaccine. "It is recommended to get the vaccine before the pandemic period begins, usually in October. You can also get vaccinated during an epidemic."[yc glove]

With the exception of the flu vaccine, the rest of the protection against swine flu is basically the same as against COVID-19.

"You can go to crowded areas as little as possible. If you do go, wear a mask and do not rub your eyes and nose. If you need to cough and sneeze in public, cover your mouth and nose with your arms and tissues. Change your coat when you get home, and open the window at regular intervals. Alcohol and chlorine-based disinfectants can be used for home disinfection." "There is no need to carry out extensive disinfection at home if there are no swine flu patients at home," Wang said. For small outbreaks, a chlorine-based disinfectant may be used to wipe the room."[nitrile glove]

If you have swine flu, don't panic. "For those with good physical health, symptomatic treatment can be given, and some groups can recover without treatment." "But if a patient has a persistent high fever, difficulty breathing, severe vomiting and diarrhea, he or she must seek medical attention actively," Wang said.[latex glove]

"Whether it is COVID-19 or swine flu, whenever there is a viral infection, it can cause damage to the body organs, especially the heart. Therefore, it is important to rest for three to four weeks after infection before gradually resuming exercise, which can reduce the risk of viral myocarditis." Wang Baozeng stressed.[rubber glove]
