Speaking with a patient with novel coronavirus pneumonia can lead to infection if you are in unprotected conditions. Because novel coronavirus pneumonia is transmitted by respiratory droplets and close contact, infection can also be caused by contact with objects contaminated with the virus. In addition, there is a possibility of aerosol transmission in confined places with prolonged exposure to high concentrations. Therefore, speaking with patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia must undergo strict protection. Medical personnel should wear medical protective masks, gowns, goggles, double-layer latex gloves, and shoe covers when in contact with patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia. The disease is highly contagious and the population is generally susceptible. Some immunity can be acquired after infection or vaccination, but the duration is unclear.
