2. Health Tips
As the cool autumn season sets in and the temperature difference between day and night widens, citizens are reminded to pay attention to the following health measures: 1. Maintain good food hygiene. Kitchen utensils used for handling raw and cooked foods should be kept separate. Avoid eating undercooked meat or seafood, and refrain from consuming raw, cold, or unclean food, as well as untreated water. 2. Keep your environment comfortable. At home, in schools, and in childcare institutions or other public places, windows should be opened regularly for ventilation according to weather conditions. While keeping warm, ensure to ventilate two to three times a day, for no less than 30 minutes each time. 3. Strengthen health monitoring. After returning from holiday travel, monitor your health closely. If symptoms such as fever, headache, or diarrhea occur, seek medical attention promptly based on your condition. Schools and other collective institutions should continue to enforce morning and afternoon health checks and record absences due to illness. 4. Take proper personal protection. Adjust clothing appropriately with temperature changes to avoid catching a cold. Wear masks correctly when needed, maintain good hand hygiene, and avoid visiting crowded or poorly ventilated places, as well as areas where wild birds gather. 5. Stay proactive about vaccination. Eligible residents are encouraged to receive vaccinations against influenza and pneumococcal infections. Primary and secondary schools should ensure that vaccination records of newly enrolled students are checked and urge those who have missed doses to complete their vaccinations.
