How to protect yourself and your family during the high incidence of influenza and get through this **48 hours? Let me reveal them one by one.

First, let's understand the basics of the flu. Influenza, also known as epidemic influenza, is an acute respiratory infection caused by influenza viruses. Influenza is very contagious, and the population is generally susceptible, especially during the Spring Festival, when there is a large flow of people, and the virus is more likely to spread. Typical symptoms of the flu include fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, fatigue, etc., and some people also experience symptoms such as vomiting and diarrhea.

In the period of high incidence of influenza, how to grasp the **48 hours for self-help? The following steps are crucial:

At home, you can use masks, wash your hands frequently, and other ways to reduce the likelihood of virus transmission.

2.Rest: Adequate rest is essential to restore physical strength and strengthen immunity. During the flu, you should get at least 8 hours of sleep a day and avoid overexertion.

At the same time, according to the symptoms, antipyretic and analgesic, cough and phlegm drugs can be appropriately taken. It is important to note that antibiotics are not effective against influenza viruses and should never be abused.

5.Observe the condition: pay close attention to the changes in the condition, and seek medical attention in time if the fever persists or the symptoms worsen. Especially in special populations such as children, the elderly and pregnant women, it is necessary to pay more attention to the condition of influenza to avoid complications.

So, how can we prevent the flu when traveling during the Spring Festival? Here are a few suggestions for your reference:

1.Prepare medicines: Carry some common health products and medicines with you, such as banlan root, cold and heat clearing granules, etc., which can deal with cold symptoms in the first place.

3.Diet: Maintain good eating habits, eat more vegetables and fruits, and eat less greasy and spicy foods to improve your own immunity.

4.Maintain hygiene: Wash your hands frequently, wear a mask, and try to avoid close contact with people with colds to reduce the risk of virus transmission.
