Prevention and treatment

We can prevent 60% of seasonal flu by vaccination. Currently, the development of a vaccine against COVID-19 is underway.

For example, the National Institutes of Health recently announced that a vaccine against COVID-19 is under development and is expected to enter phase I clinical trials within two and a half months.

However, it will still be a long time before the vaccine is finally available.

WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said on the 11th that COVID-19 vaccines are expected to be ready within 18 months.

However, for both conditions, these recommendations from the CDC are generic.

Wash your hands frequently with water and soap for no less than 20 seconds;

Do not touch your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands;

Avoid close contact with sick people, stay home when sick, and do not move around or go to crowded areas;

and taking care to clean and disinfect frequently touched objects or surfaces.

For influenza, more effective antiviral drugs have been found.

For example, for this season's flu, the CDC's recommended drugs include oseltamivir, zanamivir and peramivir.

In the clinical treatment of COVID-19, intravenous antibiotics, oxygen therapy, oseltamivir, and mechanical ventilation are some of the most frequently used therapies.

In addition, a higher proportion of critically ill patients were treated with systemic glucocorticoids. A cure for COVID-19 is still being sought.

Clinical trials of remdesivir are underway in hospitals in Wuhan, and drugs such as arbidol and darunavir have also shown potential in in vitro cell experiments.

However, it will also take some time before the drug is put on the market through clinical testing.

A global pandemic?

Seasonal influenza occurs every year and is significantly different from influenza pandemic events and outbreaks of novel influenza viruses in severity.

For example, according to the CDC, the swine flu outbreak in 2009 was an influenza pandemic, which is estimated to have caused about 151,000~575,000 deaths worldwide.

At this time, the COVID-19 pandemic has not been assessed as a global pandemic event.

The reason for this is that most cases are currently occurring in China, and there are no outbreaks in other countries or regions around the world.

Previously, the WHO declared the COVID-19 outbreak a "public health emergency of international concern".

This statement was mainly concerned that the virus could spread to countries with weaker health systems.

After reading these, Lingxi raised his wrist and glanced at the time, well, it's 11:30, go down, it's time for lunch!

She turned off the computer, then got up, walked out of the study, and headed downstairs!

Before she could get downstairs, she heard Nina's cheerful voice!

"Lingyan, are you back?"

Ling Yan, who was changing his shoes at the entrance of the door, frowned when he heard this voice!

"Why are you here?"

"Why can't I come?

But Li Haochen, who was walking behind, began to tease!

"Yo! Listening to Nina's tone, it seems to be the hostess of this Magnolia Mansion!"

When Nina heard Li Haochen say this, she immediately smiled! She just likes that others will put her on the side of Li Lingyan's family!

"Li Haochen, you're here! Welcome, welcome!"

When Li Haochen heard this, he laughed even more meaningfully!

"As soon as you heard that the holiday was extended, you couldn't wait to come to your mother-in-law's house?" Li Haochen joked!

However, Ling Yan turned his head and glared at Li Haochen, who was joking!

"You're idle?"

Li Haochen knew that it was not a good thing to provoke this little uncle, so he quickly waved his hand!

"No! I'm just kidding!"

Ling Yan looked serious: "I don't think this joke is funny at all! In the future, don't make such jokes again!"

Li Haochen had no choice but to nod, indicating that he knew!

And when Nina heard Ling Yan's words, she couldn't help but feel a little low!

"Lingyan, I'm just here to play for a few days!Is it necessary for you to do this?" her voice was significantly lower!

Ling Yan looked at Nina and didn't have any expression!

"Got it! Since you're here, let Lingxi accompany you!" After speaking, he took the lead and walked to the bedroom on the second floor, he was going to take a bath! After playing ball for a long time, his whole body was full of the smell of sweat!

Li Haochen also smiled awkwardly, he just came to have a meal, but he didn't expect to get into trouble!

He also walked towards his guest room, yes, Li Haochen, as the youngest person in the Li family, naturally he is here, and he has his own exclusive guest room!

He also often comes here to play with Lingxi and Lingyan, so he is familiar with the road!

Both of them left, and Lingxi walked up to Nina and patted her!

"Nina, don't be discouraged! He's just slow to react to this! I like it a lot, you be my sister-in-law!"

After listening to Lingxi's words, Nina's originally depressed mood suddenly felt like being beaten with chicken blood!

"Lingxi, you're right, I can't just give up!" After saying that, she laughed!

Lingxi took Nina's hand: "It's great if you can think like that! Let's go!"

After saying that, she pulled Nina and walked to the restaurant!

On the dining table, the delicate dishes have already been arranged, Nina swept away the depressed mood just now, picked up the chopsticks, and began to eat elegantly!

When Lingyan and Li Haochen took a bath, came downstairs, and were ready to eat, they saw that Lingxi and Nina were almost finished!

Li Haochen was a little dissatisfied: "Hey, do you treat guests like this?"

Lingxi blinked and looked at him with big eyes!

"What's wrong? Li Gongzi, is there a problem?"

"Of course, I took a shower and planned to come to dinner, but as a result, you all finished eating, feelings, I, as a guest, still came to eat the rest of you?"

Nina finished the last sip of soup, then took out a napkin, wiped her mouth, and then turned her head to look at Li Haochen!

"Li Haochen, what kind of guest are you? Count it out, I'm a guest, right?"

"But you can't do that to me, can you?"

Ling Yan walked over and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort!

"Forget it, you didn't come to my house for the first day. You know, in our family, men have always had no status, and it's good to have a mouthful of leftovers to eat!"

Li Haochen sighed, then sat down and began to eat leftovers resignedly!

"Yes, our Li family, that's what it looks like! Fortunately, my parents only gave birth to me, if I have a sister or sister, it is estimated that the treatment will be the same as you!" Li Haochen suddenly sighed!
