Novel viral pneumonia is an acute respiratory infection caused by a novel coronavirus that causes significant respiratory symptoms in humans, mainly fever, and possibly malaise, dry cough, and dyspnea. Analysis of the available epidemiological data has confirmed that the virus can be transmitted continuously from person to person, mainly through the respiratory tract and by contact.
Therefore, to prevent novel viral pneumonia, the first step is to protect the respiratory tract by isolating at home, reducing visits to crowded places, wearing a mask when going out, opening windows at home to reduce virus accumulation, paying attention to personal hygiene and washing hands regularly, and actively exercising to improve the body’s immunity. If there are symptoms of respiratory infection, such as cough and fever, you should actively go to the hospital for investigation and treatment.
