Health Desk- 13 March
2020: The World Health Organization (WHO) has given some
recommendations and advice for the public over coronavirus as it has already turned
into a pandemic.
If you are not in an area where COVID-19 is spreading or
have not travelled from an area where COVID-19 is spreading or have not been in
contact with an infected patient, your risk of infection is low.
It is understandable that you may feel anxious about the
outbreak. Get the facts from reliable sources to help you accurately determine
your risks so that you can take reasonable precautions. Seek guidance from WHO,
yourhealthcare provider, your national public health authority or your employer
for accurate information on COVID-19 and whether COVID-19 is circulating where
you live.
It is important to be informed of the situation and take appropriate
measures to protect yourself and your family.
If you are in an area where there are cases of COVID-19 you
need to take the risk of infection seriously. Follow the advice of WHO and guidance
issued by national and local health authorities.
For most people, COVID-19 infection will cause mild illness
however, it can make some people very ill and, in some people, it can be fatal.
Older people, and those with pre-existing medical conditions
(such as cardiovascular disease, chronic respiratory disease or diabetes) are
at risk for severe disease.
