To avoid novel coronavirus pneumonia in the home, attention should be paid to home disinfection because novel coronavirus is difficult to survive outdoors for a long time and is intolerant to high temperatures and ultraviolet light. Therefore, at home, you can carry out high-temperature treatment of related items, such as washing with hot water, cleaning with disinfectant, disinfection of furniture commonly used at home such as coffee tables, mouse pads, mice, door handles, etc. Related clothing at home can be outside in the sun, because there is sufficient ultraviolet light during the day to kill the virus stuck on clothing or quilts. The elevator should be disinfected as much as possible, and it is best to wear gloves to press the buttons on the elevator or press them through the paper. If you can’t do this, make sure to wash your hands when you get home. Wash your hands for at least 15-20 seconds, and follow the six-step hand washing procedure prescribed by the hospital. If a courier is delivered to your home, the outer packaging should be disinfected, such as with alcohol. When returning home, it is best to hang clothes at the door, including shoes and outerwear, and be sure to wash your hands after entering the home. Now some patients require home isolation, and suspected patients should be isolated at home, requiring suspected patients to be in a separate room by themselves, to wear masks by themselves, and to wear masks by family members, and to wash their hands diligently during mutual contact with family members, and to disinfect items in contact with them.
