COVID-19 epidemic, how to do personal protection on the return train? Experts help you.
When taking the train, take the initiative to cooperate with the station staff to do a good job of temperature detection. If you have fever, sore throat and other symptoms, it is best to rest at home and suspend travel.
The first rule of personal protection is to wear a mask. Just wear a disposable medical mask. If the mask is worn continuously for too long, or deformed or contaminated, it should be replaced in time.
Experts from China CDC believe that it is generally not contagious to take off the mask for a short time when passing the security check. When taking off the mask, it is recommended to keep a distance of more than 1 meter from the predecessors and avoid facing others directly. After facial recognition, put on a mask immediately and go through the security check channel as soon as possible. To reduce the waiting time in the waiting room, leave the station as soon as possible after the bus ride.
Experts remind that health monitoring and management should be done well during the journey, and body temperature should be measured actively when you feel fever. People with suspicious symptoms should report in time. If you have related symptoms during the trip, you should take the initiative to wear a medical surgical mask or N95 mask, try to avoid contact with other people, and see a doctor in time according to your condition. Travel information should be properly kept by train for enquiry.
When you take the train, you will inevitably encounter public goods such as doors and seats, and even have a physical collision with the surrounding passengers. Experts from China CDC stressed that you can wear gloves that don’t show your fingers when you take the train. Pay attention to hand cleaning after taking off gloves. Wearing gloves can reduce direct contact with the outside world, thus reducing hand pollution. Experts especially emphasize that wearing gloves can’t replace washing hands, and washing hands frequently when taking the train. When sneezing or coughing, cover your mouth and nose with paper towels or clothes.
Zhang Liubo, chief expert of disinfection science of China CDC, said that on the train, passengers should wash their hands with flowing water or clean them with hand disinfectant. If there is no hand disinfectant, it is ok to wipe it with a disinfectant wipe.
Duan Shuhong, chief physician of the Department of Infectious Diseases, Beijing Shijitan Hospital, reminded you to use public toilets and carry paper towels, alcohol sprays or alcohol cotton pads with you. Open the door through the door handle with a paper towel, and flush the toilet before using it. Wipe the toilet seat with alcohol spray or alcohol cotton pad before use, cover the toilet seat before flushing, and wash your hands before and after using the toilet. Don’t rub your eyes and nose, and don’t touch the outer layer of the mask when you are not sure about cleaning your hands.
Try to avoid eating when taking the train. When it is really necessary, wash your hands according to the rules before meals. Don’t eat face to face, try to keep a certain distance until you take off your mask just before eating.
After taking the train, clothes can be changed normally as long as they are not in contact with dangerous people, and shoes can be placed at the door or in a ventilated place on the balcony. If you are really worried, you can spray 75% medical alcohol properly, and then turn the clothes inside and outside and hang them in a ventilated place on the porch or balcony.
Should I wash my hair after taking the train? Experts pointed out that hair is a "non-absorbent material", and the droplets of the virus will not survive on the hair for too long, and the risk of infection is not high. If you are really worried, you can wear a hat to take the train and disinfect it when you get home.
