How to Easily Prevent Viruses in Everyday Life

An unusual viral outbreak has brought the world to a brief standstill, and the world is facing major and minor disruptions.

Today, let’s look at ways to easily prevent viruses in everyday life.

Let’s prevent and overcome COVID-19 together with simple preventive measures that anyone can do.

We use our hands to touch, feel, and use many things.

In fact, we touch our faces more than 20 times in an hour, and 44% of those times are said to pass through mucous membrane areas vulnerable to germs, such as the eyes, nose, and mouth.

Germs, which are the cause of all diseases and infections, must be removed.

In daily life, you should be able to keep your hands clean by washing them with soap for at least 30 seconds or by using hand sanitizer.

Did you know that there is etiquette even for uncontrollable coughing and sneezing?

The proper way is to cover your mouth and nose with your sleeve instead of using your hands.

If you unconsciously cover your mouth and nose with your hands, and then touch other objects with hands that contain germs and viruses, you may expose others to risk.

Therefore, you must cover your mouth and nose with your sleeve, tissue, or similar materials rather than your hands.

Also, repeated coughing and sneezing in crowded places can cause anxiety and discomfort, so it is recommended to avoid doing so.

Our mucous membranes can be called entryways through which germs can easily invade.

Although masks currently protect the nose and mouth, the eyes, which are also exposed without protection, need attention.

You should wash your hands before rubbing or touching your eyes.

If you must leave the house for unavoidable reasons, wearing a mask is essential.

The coronavirus has difficulty surviving outdoors, that is, in a normal air environment,

but in enclosed indoor spaces, droplet particles have a higher survival rate and can cause group infections.

You should wear a mask both indoors and outdoors, but if you have to go out, please pay a little more attention to wearing a mask indoors.

It is best to avoid visiting crowded places.

As the situation has continued for a long time, there have been intermittent gatherings of crowds in busy areas.

However, before an official announcement from the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it is recommended to avoid crowded areas,

risk areas, overseas travel, and to carry out self-quarantine.

Even so, if you have fever and respiratory symptoms, you should follow the steps below.

• Do not go to school or work, and avoid going out.

• If symptoms do not improve even after 3 to 4 days of sufficient rest, or if a high fever of 38 degrees Celsius or higher occurs

• First contact a public health center and then visit a screening clinic.

(At present, congestion inside hospitals nationwide is high, so if you visit an emergency room without doing the above, testing and treatment may be difficult.)

• Also, if you receive treatment at a screening clinic, you must honestly inform the medical staff without hiding anything about your overseas travel history, symptoms,

and travel route, and cooperate with testing and treatment.

Because the coronavirus is a virus dangerous to people of all ages and genders,

it can help to remain vigilant and maintain a clean environment yourself.

Even so, for relatively more vulnerable high-risk groups,

it is best to maintain high-quality meals and a regular sleep pattern so that immunity does not decline.

At KOKO LINE, we do our utmost for our customers’ safety and prevention,

and for those who find in-person consultations difficult due to voluntary social distancing, we provide online consultations and virtual plastic surgery guidance through our website.

In addition, we recommend that visiting customers wear masks,

and we have hand sanitizer available in the clinic and all staff wear masks, operating a Clean Safe Zone so that you can feel more secure.

KOKO LINE always wishes for your health and well-being.

Thank you.
