1. Minimize outdoor activities:

(1) Avoid traveling to areas where diseases are currently prevalent.

(2) It is recommended that during the Spring Festival, you minimize visits to relatives and friends and group meals, and spend as much time resting at home as possible.

(3) Reduce visits to crowded public places, especially those with poor ventilation, such as public bathhouses, hot springs, cinemas, internet cafés, KTVs, shopping malls, train stations, airports, docks, and exhibition halls!

II. Personal Protective Measures and Hand Hygiene

(1) Wear a mask when going out. When visiting public places, seeking medical care, or using public transportation, wear a medical surgical mask or an N95 mask.

(2) Maintain good hand hygiene at all times. Minimize contact with public objects and surfaces in public places; wash your hands with soap and running water or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer after returning from public spaces, after covering your mouth when coughing, and before meals and after using the restroom. If you are unsure whether your hands are clean, avoid touching your mouth, nose, and eyes with them. When sneezing or coughing, cover your mouth and nose with your elbow or a tissue.

III. Health Monitoring and Medical Care

(1) Actively monitor your own health and that of your family members, and promptly take your temperature if you develop a fever. If there are children in the household, check their foreheads morning and evening; if they have a fever, measure their temperature.

(2) If you develop any suspicious symptoms, you should promptly put on a mask and seek medical care at the nearest healthcare facility. If you experience suspected symptoms of novel coronavirus infection—such as fever, cough, sore throat, chest tightness, shortness of breath, mild loss of appetite, fatigue, slight malaise, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, palpitations, conjunctivitis, or mild muscle aches in the limbs or lower back—you should, depending on your condition, seek medical attention without delay. Additionally, try to avoid using public transportation such as subways and buses, and refrain from visiting crowded places. When seeking medical care, proactively inform your doctor of your travel and residence history in areas where the disease is prevalent, as well as of any individuals you have been in contact with since the onset of symptoms, and cooperate fully with the doctor’s investigation.

IV. Maintain Good Hygiene and Healthy Habits

(1) Open windows frequently and ensure regular ventilation.

(2) Family members should not share towels, keep the home and tableware clean, and frequently air out clothes and bedding.

(3) Do not spit on the ground; wrap any oral or nasal secretions in a tissue and dispose of it in a lidded waste bin.

(4) Pay attention to nutrition and engage in moderate exercise.

(5) Avoid contact with, purchasing, or consuming wild animals (i.e., game meat); and refrain as much as possible from visiting markets that sell live animals, including poultry, seafood, and wild animals.

(6) Households should stock up on thermometers, medical surgical masks or N95 masks, household disinfectants, and other essential supplies.
