ThreePay attention to respiratory etiquette
1When you are about to cough or sneeze, whether you are a sick person or not, you should use napkins, handkerchiefs, or cover your mouth and nose with both hands to prevent the spread of germs. 2. If you don't have time to take the napkin, you can take the "cuff covering method", that is, cover the mouth and nose with the inside of the sleeve tube of the clothes, which can also prevent saliva from flying. 3. Wash your hands immediately after coughing or sneezing. Otherwise, germs from the hands can be transferred to the surface of these objects by shaking hands with each other, touching doorknobs, computer keyboards, etc.
