The Swine Flu outbreak in India has already claimed 703
lives since January, 2015. As the masks slowly come out in the populous Delhi &
NCR, Dr. Himanshu Garg, one of the Best Pulmonologists in Delhi & Gurgaon, mentions
the following tips to keep Swine Flu at Bay.
Keep
Your Mouth & Nose Covered
It is very important to protect yourself from the virus of Swine Flu spreading through coughs and sneezes.
The virus stays alive in the sneeze or cough droplets even after several hours.
It is actually very easy to get infected by inhaling these viruses. Thus, cover
your mouth and nose if someone coughs or sneezes nearby.
Wash
Your Hands Frequently
Touching objects, like door handles, keyboards etc., which
have been infected by the swine flu virus, is another way by which you can get
infected with the Swine Flu virus. Washing
your hands frequently with soap or applying alcohol based disinfectant is an
effective way of staying safe from the swine flu virus.
Drink Plenty
of Water
One of ways, to ensure that you are free from Swine Flu, is
to monitor the quantity and quality of your urine. Drink lots of water and
ensure that there is no decrease in urination.
Taking care of the above tips has become important during
present times. Although cure for Swine Flu exists, prevention is better than
cure. Pay a visit to your Pulmonologist if
symptoms like sore throat, cough, fever, body ache etc. lasts more than a
couple of days.
