To prevent transmission of the infection to other people, the following measures are necessary during this period:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Avoid crowded places (call in sick, cancel your schooling\/studying sessions; don\u2019t take a sick child to kindergarten, etc.).<\/li>\n<li>If you cannot avoid visiting the crowded places, put a mask over your mouth and nose.<\/li>\n<li>Cover your nose and mouth, when coughing and sneezing; use disposable napkins to wipe away your nasal secretions.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid kissing and shaking hands with an infected individual.<\/li>\n<li>If you got sick, wash your hands frequently, use only your own dining set and a towel, frequently allow fresh air in the room to secure your family members.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A healthy individual should employ the following measures to protect himself from a viral infection:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Avoid making contacts, where the virus might be transmitted (handshaking, being within 1 meter from an infection carrier, using the same tableware pieces).<\/li>\n<li>Avoid drying up nasal mucosa (humidify the air at home, use saline solutions \u2013 Nasisoft, Lorde\u00ae Hyal).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-623\" src=\"https:\/\/emteko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/profilaktika-prippa-2-768x512-1.webp\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/emteko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/profilaktika-prippa-2-768x512-1.webp 768w, https:\/\/emteko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/profilaktika-prippa-2-768x512-1-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/emteko.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/profilaktika-prippa-2-768x512-1-624x416.webp 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Influenza and ARVD prophylaxis represents the series of measures aiming to strengthen a body, increase immunity that involves:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Good nutrition rich in vitamins.<\/li>\n<li>Keeping the proper hours, resting in a timely manner.<\/li>\n<li>Daily outdoor activities.<\/li>\n<li>Reducing influence of harmful factors.<\/li>\n<li>Body conditioning.<\/li>\n<li>Regular physical exercises.<\/li>\n<li>Discarding unhealthy habits.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>ARVD prophylaxis in children includes creation of the proper microclimate within a room: optimal air temperature and humidity maintenance, fresh air allowance on the regular basis.
