II. Health tips for key epidemic situation
Compared with last week, the number of reported cases of infectious diseases increased by 0.7%, and cases of intestinal infectious diseases accounted for 45.3% of the reported cases this week. The summer heat still exists in the early autumn, and high temperature and humidity are conducive to the growth, reproduction and spread of intestinal pathogenic microorganisms. It is especially important to prevent clusters of norovirus infections in densely populated places such as schools and kindergartens as the school season approaching. Citizens should develop good dietary hygiene habits, maintain good hand hygiene, and avoid close contact with patients. If you are infected with norovirus, it is necessary to stay at home or stay at hospital according to the condition of the disease and be quarantined for 3 days after the complete disappearance of the symptoms. The patient's home environment should be disinfected. In addition, norovirus infection has generally mild symptoms, short duration and good prognosis. Patients should take adequate rest and have a light diet. If symptoms of vomiting and diarrhea are severe, you should seek medical treatment in time.
At present, there have been no cases of COVID-19 reported in Beijing for three consecutive weeks, but the overseas epidemic is still expanding. As the order of production and life in the city accelerates to return to normal, the intensity of economic activities has risen sharply, schools have opened one after another, and the flow of personnel has increased significantly. The epidemic prevention and control is still a hard task. Citizens, especially students, must do a good job of self-health monitoring and actively cooperate with prevention and control management. If you feel unwell, seek medical advice promptly. People with fever or respiratory symptoms, or those who have had close contact with patients with respiratory infections recently, should try not to take public transportation or travel afar.
