Use chlorine-containing disinfectants to promptly handle patients' vomitus and excrement, and do a good job of environmental disinfection. Schools and childcare institutions should do a good job of morning inspections and tracking the causes of absences due to illness. If students have symptoms such as vomiting and diarrhea, they should be required to leave school in time for isolation and treatment, and disinfect according to regulations.
