The measures that can be taken against the coronavirus, which has recently become the most important health problem in the world, in which many people lost their lives, is the most important measure in this virus, as in all viruses, to keep the hygiene and immune system strong.

The coronavirus epidemic, which emerged in China and is currently seen in about 30 countries and caused the death of many people, said, “The Corona virus is transmitted to the person through body fluids, droplet infection and respiratory tract. Close contact with the person carrying the virus plays an important role. Although this new type of coronavirus was transmitted from animals to the first cases, it was observed that the virus gained the ability to be transmitted from person to person within days, with the emergence of cases without animal contact.
It is possible that some people infected with the coronavirus may have no symptoms or have mild symptoms like a cold, but in most cases recorded, the symptoms of fever, cough, shortness of breath and breathing difficulties are at the forefront.

Attention to Hygiene!

Pay attention to hygiene, get enough sleep and have a natural and balanced diet.
As in every disease and epidemic, the most important measure to be taken against the newly emerging coronavirus is hygiene, good rest of the body and a natural and balanced diet. Sufficient sleep (78 hours a day), staying away from stress, exercising, complying with hygiene rules, not smoking and drinking alcohol, in short, adopting a healthy lifestyle are among the first things we should do. We should pay attention to a regular and balanced diet, to take adequate fluids, to eat high quality protein, natural vegetables/fruits, whole grains, legumes, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Although there is not enough evidence, supplements containing vitamin D, zinc, omega3 and natural vitamin C may work. Apart from this, it is recommended to wash hands frequently and not to touch the face, mouth and eyes in any way after contact.

“Use a mask in crowded environments”

It is necessary to stay away from sick people and crowded places with problematic ventilation (buses, minibuses, trains, metro, cinemas, shopping centers), and those who are obligatory should use masks. It is an effective way to prevent transmission of all respiratory viruses. Especially the elderly, those with chronic diseases (heart disease, kidney disease, respiratory disease, neurological disease, diabetes); those with compromised immune systems; Cancer patients, those in the last stage of any disease, pregnant women and children are at greater risk. It is recommended that risky individuals wear masks, do not enter crowded environments, and do not travel unless necessary, as the coronavirus is transmitted through the respiratory tract, not food. It should not be forgotten that the most important measure to be taken against all viruses is hygiene and keeping the body's immune system strong.
