In COVID-19, how about home isolation treatment for infected people?

According to the requirements of further optimizing the implementation of epidemic prevention and control measures in COVID-19, positive infected people can voluntarily choose home isolation or centralized isolation. For those infected with home isolation treatment, experts from the Institute of Infectious Diseases Prevention and Control of Shandong Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention suggest that the following matters should be paid attention to, so as to promote their own recovery as soon as possible and reduce the risk of infection of people living with them.

1. Family isolation treatment for COVID-19 infected people. If conditions permit, use relatively independent rooms with windows as isolation rooms and separate toilets as far as possible.

2. Infected people should protect themselves and try not to contact with other family members. Tables or stools can be placed outside the isolation room as the handover point of non-contact transfer items to avoid direct face-to-face contact.

3. During the period of home isolation treatment, I should actively cooperate with community management. Unless necessary, I and residents in the same hospital are not allowed to go out or receive visits.

4. Do a good job in self-health monitoring, measure your body temperature twice a day in the morning and evening, and contact primary medical staff or consult relevant medical institutions through Internet medical forms when necessary. If the symptoms of respiratory infection or the original basic diseases are obviously aggravated and it is really necessary to go out for medical treatment, you should go to the relevant hospital as soon as possible under the condition of good protection.

5. Health and epidemic prevention measures such as cleaning and disinfection should be taken.

Open the window regularly every day to keep indoor air circulation. If there is no natural ventilation, mechanical ventilation can be carried out through the exhaust fan. Do a good job in ventilation and disinfection of toilets, bathrooms and other * * * enjoyment areas.

Food preparation, before and after meals, wearing masks, etc. Should be disinfected or disinfected by hand. Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when coughing or sneezing, or cover your nose and mouth with the inside of your elbow. Throw the used paper towels into the trash can and dispose of them properly in time.

Infected people do not use daily necessities with other family members, and tableware should be cleaned and disinfected after use. The surfaces of items that infected people may contact daily and the towels, clothes and quilts they use should be cleaned and disinfected in time, and personal items should be placed separately. Articles contaminated by saliva, sputum, etc. Disinfect at any time.

If the family * * * uses the bathroom, the infected person should disinfect it every time he uses the bathroom; If the infected person uses a separate toilet, it can be disinfected 1 time a day.

Families should be equipped with personal protective equipment such as thermometers, paper towels, masks, disposable gloves, disinfectants, disinfection products, covered trash cans, etc. Used paper towels, masks, disposable gloves and other household garbage are put into plastic bags and put into special trash cans.
