How to recognize the virus in the early stages and gain time to defeat the disease? How to protect family members with whom you are in constant contact at the slightest sign of illness? The experts of the Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare spoke about the manifestations of the disease in the first place.
- So, with coronavirus in patients at first, often elevated body temperature and dry cough are often observed. With influenza, joint aches, fatigue, and headache are also added to these symptoms.
- Colds are more likely to cause symptoms such as sneezing, sore throat, runny nose, and joint pain.
- Like other respiratory viruses, coronavirus spreads through drops that form when an infected person coughs or sneezes.
- In addition, it can spread when an infected person touches any contaminated surface, such as a door handle. People become infected when they touch their mouth, nose, or eyes with contaminated hands.
7 steps to prevent coronavirus infection:
- Refrain from visiting public places: shopping centers, sports and entertainment events, transport.
- Do not touch your eyes, face, and mouth with dirty hands.
- Avoid close contact and stay in the same room with people who have visible signs of SARS (coughing, sneezing, nasal discharge).

- Disinfect gadgets, office equipment and the surfaces you touch.
- Limit close hugs and handshakes when greeting.
- Use only personal hygiene items (towel, toothbrush).
