What should I do if I have been to Wuhan recently? Will I be infected with pneumonia if I go to Wuhan?

Recently, the news of the unknown pneumonia in Wuhan has become more and more popular. Many people are a little panicked when they think of going to Wuhan, and they are worried that they have been infected. Now it is confirmed that it is indeed transmitted from person to person, but it is not so easy to spread. If you have been to Wuhan recently, pay attention to your symptoms and body temperature after returning to your residence, wash your hands frequently and pay attention to hygiene, and you will be fine.

What should I do if I have been to Wuhan recently?

After returning to your place of residence, you should pay attention to strengthening your physical protection and paying attention to your physical condition within 2 weeks.

If you receive a notification from the disease control department that you need to undergo home medical observation, do not panic, do not go to work, do not go out casually, observe your own physical condition, and receive regular follow-up visits from your community doctor.

If you experience early clinical symptoms of acute respiratory infection such as fever (axillary temperature ≥ 37.3℃), cough, and shortness of breath, please go to the local designated medical institution for screening, diagnosis and treatment in time.

Will I be infected with pneumonia if I go to Wuhan?

It is not that easy to get infected, but prevention is necessary.

I hope everyone can pay attention to pneumonia virus prevention in recent times. Now the virus has been confirmed to be transmitted from person to person. Don’t be lucky enough to think that the virus cannot be transmitted to you. Life is of paramount importance!

1. Try not to go to crowded places. If you go out, be sure to wear a mask. An ordinary medical surgical mask will do.

2. Remember to wash your hands frequently. It would be better if you have antibacterial hand sanitizer.

3. Don’t stay up late or be overly anxious. It is also important to maintain a relaxed mindset!

4. If possible, explain the current situation to your family and friends, and actively persuade them if they are unwilling to take precautions. Never eat wild animals

Why are there so many confirmed cases suddenly?

Because of the virus nucleic acid detection kit. Recently, relevant national scientific research institutions have quickly developed a virus nucleic acid detection kit. After receiving the kit issued by the state, the Hubei Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention began to conduct etiological testing on specimens of patients with unexplained viral pneumonia sent by Wuhan City. This is why there are so many cases suddenly.
