Starting in mid-February, companies across China have begun to resume work and production. However, due to the impact of the new coronavirus, how to do a good job in prevention and control during the epidemic has become a priority for local governments and enterprises. We, Guangdong Sihai also adopted some prevention and control measures.

Knowledge of new coronavirus science

Coronavirus isolated from the lower respiratory tract of patients with unexplained pneumonia in the epidemic area is a new type of coronavirus, named by WHO as 2019-nCoV.

New coronavirus-infected pneumonia can occur in people with low immune function and normal immune function, and it is related to the amount of virus exposure. For people with poor immune function, such as the elderly, pregnant women or patients with liver and kidney dysfunction, and those with chronic diseases, the condition is more severe after infection.

The main transmission methods are droplet transmission, contact transmission (including self-vaccination caused by hand contamination), and short-range transmission of respiratory aerosols of different sizes. At present, short-distance droplet transmission should be the main route.

Judging from the incidence-related order of some clustered cases, the characteristics of human-to-human transmission are obvious, and there is a certain range of community transmission.

How to use mask protection properly

Choose the right mask: Disposable medical masks should be replaced continuously for 4h, and should be replaced immediately if there is obvious pollution or wetness; The N95 medical protective mask should be replaced according to the environment and dust concentration of the user.

During epidemic prevention, hand hygiene should be done before and after removing the mask. Before discarding the discarded mask, it should be folded into a long strip and then tied with a hanging ear rope. When folding the mask, the mouth and nose contact surface should be facing outwards. If necessary, it should be disinfected with alcohol. The waste mask is put in the trash can, and the trash can is disinfected with 75% alcohol or chlorine disinfectant twice a day.
