How to prevent respiratory infections?
According to the monitoring data of Zhengzhou Center for Disease Control and Prevention, the positive rate of influenza virus testing in Zhengzhou has increased, mainly influenza A virus, and there has been a co-infection of multiple respiratory infectious pathogens, such as influenza and syncytial virus, influenza and adenovirus. Co-infections do not occur only in children,** but there is also a risk of co-infection, and once co-infections occur, symptoms may be severe.

The prevention of infectious diseases requires the following attention:
1.Actively vaccinating against COVID, flu and other vaccines is also the most effective and economical way
2.Develop a healthy lifestyle with adequate sleep, adequate nutrition, and moderate physical activity
3.Develop good personal hygiene Xi such as wearing masks and washing hands frequently during the season of high incidence of respiratory infections
4.Keep the home and workplace environment clean, open windows regularly for ventilation, and keep warm during ventilation
5.High-risk groups such as the elderly, children, and patients with underlying diseases should avoid going to crowded public places as much as possible
6.Once symptoms of respiratory tract infection such as fever and cough appear, patients should minimize going out to avoid transmitting the causative organism to others, and if the disease worsens, they also need to seek medical attention in time.

3.Try to avoid going to crowded places, wear a mask and wash your hands frequently if you want to go.
4.Develop good personal hygiene Xi, keep the environment clean, ventilate the room regularly, and keep warm during ventilation.
Who needs a flu shot?According to the Technical Guidelines for Influenza Vaccination in China (2023-2024), it is recommended that all people aged 6 months with no contraindications to vaccination should be vaccinated against influenza, especially medical personnel, the elderly aged 60 and above, patients with one or more chronic diseases, and people in key places such as childcare institutions and primary and secondary schools.
Because influenza viruses mutate easily and circulating strains may vary from year to year, it is recommended to get the flu vaccine every year, preferably before the local influenza season。Timely vaccination of the appropriate age group can not only improve the ability of individuals to prevent diseases, but also effectively establish an immune barrier and protect other susceptible people after vaccination.
Recently, the temperature difference has been large.
Everyone must remember to wear a mask when traveling.
Wash your hands frequently and keep warm.
Don't get sick
