Hygienic etiquette for breathing and coughing

Etiquette when coughing: When coughing or sneezing, whether you are a patient or not, you should cover your nose and mouth with napkins, handkerchiefs or hands to prevent the spread of germs; If you don't have time to take a napkin, you can take the "sleeve shielding method", that is, cover your mouth and nose with the inside of your clothes sleeve, which can also prevent spitting. The above protective measures are particularly important in a narrow and closed space. Don't throw used napkins everywhere, throw them into the dustbin.

Etiquette after coughing: Wash your hands immediately after coughing and sneezing, otherwise, hand germs will transfer to the surface of these objects by shaking hands, touching handles and computer keyboards. While doing a good job of "cough etiquette", we should also pay attention to another aspect of life, that is, keep a certain distance from others, don't talk directly to others, and don't speak too loudly to avoid splashing.

Etiquette when there are symptoms: when you have a cold, especially in the early stage, the symptoms are mild. When going out or working, and sharing transportation, elevators and office space with others, you should consciously abide by the "respiratory hygiene and cough etiquette" and wear a mask to prevent germs from spreading through coughing and sneezing.
