Prevention Of Covid-19 Infographic
Older people and those with such chronic conditions, such as heart disease, lung disease or diabetes, are at greater risk of developing serious illnesses associated with COVID-19.
The flu virus and the virus that causes covid-19 could be spreading at the same time this fall and winter. The hospital sector can be overburdened when it comes to the care of flu patients and covid-19 patients. This suggests that vaccination against influenza is more important than ever in 2020-2021.
You know how it spreads
COVID-19 is transmitted to people mainly through the following channels:
Between people who have close contact with each other (within 6 feet).
Respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs, sneezes, breathes, sings or speaks.
Respiratory droplets can cause infection when inhaled or deposited on mucous membranes, such as those inside the nasal cavity and mouth.
People who are infected but have no symptoms can also transmit the virus to others.
An uncommon route of transmission of COVID-19
In some cases (for example, when people are in enclosed Spaces with poor ventilation), COVID-19 is sometimes transmitted through the air.
COVID-19 is less transmitted by contact with contaminated surfaces.
Everyone Should Do
Wash your hands often
