Prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic

At present, the new crown pneumonia epidemic outside the country is still spreading, and the local epidemic situation has occurred in many places in China, and the situation of epidemic prevention and control is grim. With the Spring Festival approaching, the number of people returning to work has increased, and the risk of the spread of the epidemic has increased.

Recommendations for epidemic prevention and control during the Spring Festival:

(1) Cooperate with prevention and control management.

1. Personnel coming (returning) from high-risk areas of the epidemic abroad and in China shall implement the epidemic prevention and control measures of "14 days of centralized isolation + 14 days of home health monitoring + 12 nucleic acid tests";

2. Medium and high-risk areas and those who have not yet adjusted the risk level but have the city (state, league) where the local positive infection is reported, carry a negative nucleic acid test report within 48 hours, and carry out two tests in three days after entering Qian;

3. Returnees from land border ports (except those connected to Hong Kong and Macao) need to bring a 48-hour negative nucleic acid test certificate into Qian, and it is recommended that after entering Qian, take the initiative to carry out a nucleic acid test within 48 hours, and if there is no relevant certificate, implement "three days and two tests";

4. For returnees from other low-risk areas outside the province, it is recommended to arrive in Qianqian with a negative nucleic acid test certificate within 48 hours (or show the health pass code "green code" containing negative nucleic acid test information), and test the nucleic acid again within 48 hours after arriving in Qian. (Specifically, cooperate with prevention and control management in accordance with local prevention and control policies.) ）

(2) Strengthen self-protection. Wash your hands frequently, maintain good hygiene habits, do a good job of home cleaning and hygiene, take public transportation and go to crowd gathering places, wear masks throughout the whole process, maintain a "one-meter line" social distance, avoid personnel gathering, and consciously use public chopsticks when eating out.

(3) Reduce the gathering of personnel. During the Spring Festival, reduce the activities of visiting relatives and friends, try not to hold or participate in party dinner activities, and control the number of people at family gatherings.

(4) Strictly prevent the spread of epidemics among articles. Do not buy overseas items online, wear a mask when receiving and unpacking express parcels, and wash your hands in time, you should go to regular shopping malls and supermarkets to purchase frozen, seafood food and other foods, and do not buy food without a certificate of conformity.

(5) Do a good job of health monitoring. Once fever, cough and other symptoms appear, go to the nearest fever clinic in time to seek medical treatment; wear a mask on the way to the doctor, and try not to take public transportation.

(6) Please continue to pay attention to the prevention and control policy of new crown pneumonia in our province.

Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases

At present, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as hypertension, stroke, and coronary heart disease have become common and frequent diseases that threaten people's lives and health. There is 1 hypertension patient in every 4 adults, and 1 in 10 adults has diabetes, and complications such as hypertension, stroke caused by diabetes, acute myocardial infarction and so on have become important diseases that threaten people's health.

Prevention and control recommendations

(a) Monitor your own blood pressure and control high blood pressure, which is the most important risk factor for stroke. People over the age of 30 should have their blood pressure measured at least once a year, and it is recommended to measure their blood pressure regularly at home. Lifestyle changes are the basis of antihypertensive therapy, and those with poor lifestyle therapy should be treated with antihypertensive drugs.

(2) Quit smoking. Smoking is an important and independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, for smokers at risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, there is no so-called "safe" level of smoking, such people should aim to quit smoking, not just reduce the amount of smoking.

(3) Control blood sugar. Diabetes is an independent risk factor for stroke, which can more than 1x the risk of stroke, and about 20% of people with diabetes will eventually die of stroke. The Diabetes Branch of the Chinese Medical Association recommends lowering the target value of glycosylated hemoglobin in the general population to a minimum

(4) Control of blood lipids. A joint research project with asia and the pacific found that for every 1 mmol/L increase in total cholesterol, the risk of stroke increased by 25% through a study of 352033 subjects. Saturated fatty acid intake should be reduced, smoking cessation, increased physical activity, and lipid-lowering medications should be taken to lower LDL and triglyceride levels.

(5) Pay attention to diet and nutrition. Dietary variety should be diversified, and energy and nutrient intake should be reasonable; increase the consumption of whole grains, beans, potatoes, fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy products, reduce the intake of saturated fats and trans fatty acids, and the daily intake of table salt should not exceed 5 grams.

Carbon monoxide poisoning

Carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, lighter than air, easy to burn, when burning is a blue flame, if the carbon monoxide content in the air reaches 0.04%-0.06%, it can poison people. As the weather becomes colder, the risk of safety accidents increases, and the use of gas (natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas and coal-to-gas) water heaters for bathing in a closed environment, the use of gas or coal stoves for heating in the house and the heating of the engine in the closed compartment for a long time may cause carbon monoxide poisoning.

(1) Good ventilation should be maintained frequently, and gas water heaters or gas, coal-fired, and fuel-fired equipment should not be placed in rooms or poor ventilation places where family members live.

(2) Try not to burn coal indoors, including burning coal stoves for heating, as well as cooking hot pots with charcoal, grilling with charcoal, etc. Must use charcoal as fuel, and must be placed in a place where ventilation can be obtained. Dining and processing places such as cooking hot pots with charcoal as fuel should be ventilated and ventilated, and the doors should not be closed because they are afraid of the cold wind from the outside world entering the room.

(3) Households that use coal for heating, the chimney should be installed in the living room, the structure of the chimney should be strict, the exhaust smoke is good; the coal stove without the chimney should be placed outdoors at night, and the fire should be extinguished before going to bed, and the elderly and children should not be allowed to heat alone. The weather with high air humidity and low air pressure should be paid special attention to, and the indoor doors and windows should not be closed too tightly.

(4) When using pipeline gas, it is necessary to prevent the pipeline from aging, running gas, and leaking gas, and prevent the flame from being extinguished when boiling, resulting in gas overflow.

(5) Do not use eliminated water heaters, such as in-line water heaters and flue water heaters; do not use water heaters that exceed the deadline, the installation of water heaters is best installed by professionals, and must not be installed, dismantled, or modified by themselves; bathroom doors and windows should not be closed when bathing in winter, and the bathing time should not be too long.
