As the first Spring Festival after entering a new stage of epidemic prevention and control, what should I pay attention to during travel compared with previous years? How to do personal protection? In addition to various New Year goods and gifts, do you also have some epidemic prevention materials and medicines in your suitcases for emergencies? What are the mandatory ones? Different people are traveling, and the recommended medicines are also different, and the following list is for your reference.
PART ONE
It is recommended to travel with necessary epidemic prevention materials
Since the current epidemic has not yet ended, returning to their hometown for the New Year and visiting relatives and friends still advocates that everyone make reasonable travel plans according to the actual situation of themselves and their family members. In particular, families of the elderly, pregnant women, infants and young children with underlying diseases should minimize travel to reduce the risk of infection for themselves and their family members. For friends who choose to take public transportation to return to their hometown for the New Year, they should strengthen their own protection, wear masks throughout the process, pay attention to personal hygiene, and actively avoid traveling with symptoms. The following anti-epidemic items are recommended to be carried as much as possible.
1 Mask
When taking public transportation such as airplanes, high-speed trains, trains, air-conditioned buses, etc., masks should be worn and replaced every 4-6 hours (medical surgical masks are recommended to be replaced every 4 hours, and N95/KN95 masks are replaced every 4-6 hours). Judge the number of masks you need to bring in advance based on the number of days you are traveling and the number of masks you may need to wear per day.
2 75% alcohol pads
Hand hygiene at all times is a very effective epidemic prevention measure, because alcohol is a "prohibited item to be checked in and carry-on", if disinfection is needed, disinfectant wipes, disinfectant pads, etc. can be used instead. At the same time, disinfectant gel belongs to "non-self-spraying pressure container daily necessities containing flammable ingredients", each passenger is limited to 1 piece, and the volume of a single container cannot exceed 100 ml.
3 Other supplies
Thermometer: It is recommended to bring an electronic thermometer or infrared thermometer to make sure you have enough power before departure.
Antigen kit: Carry 1-2 pieces / person according to the number of travelers, in case it is inconvenient to purchase in case of special circumstances.
Others: Child protective masks, disposable protective gloves, goggles, etc. are also popular protective equipment on the way to the Spring Festival, which can be purchased in advance as needed.
PART TWO
Essential medicines are recommended
The trip is crowded, and when taking public transportation, the space is relatively closed and the air circulation is poor. Coupled with the change in temperature on the way, it is easy to cause colds, gastrointestinal and other diseases, so bring some common medicines before setting off to be prepared. According to the requirements of the transportation you are taking, pay special attention to the capacity of liquid drugs and some medicines may need to be checked in.
If pregnant women, the elderly (especially those with underlying diseases), children and adolescents must travel, they should consult a doctor or pharmacist in advance about the type of medicine they carry and the method of medication.
