This year's Chinese New Year didn't see the widespread infections that experts had previously predicted, but instead the virus seemed to have disappeared. But in realityNew Crown virus has never been far away, and Xing Mingyou, chief physician of the department of infectious diseases at Tongji Hospital of Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, predicted that the second peak of infections will come in March to May.
Xing Mingyou analysis, "from the virological point of view and epidemiological point of view," Yang Kang "after the body antibody levels will maintain a relatively high peak for three to six months, a short period of time re-infection of people only 2% probability. But our country's population base is very large, from last December, after another 3 to 6 months, after our antibody levels slowly decline, at this time if there is a new strain of the virus mutation, we are re-infected with the possibility of clinical symptoms is very high, there may still be a peak."
Meanwhile, Prof. Xing Mingyou predicted that "the second peak of infection may come in March-May, but this time the peak may not be so obvious to the public. Due to the difference in the time sequence of our infections, and the fact that after our second infection, the number of people infected in the second round, the severity of the infection symptoms, and the magnitude of the time concentration will be much weaker than in the first one due to the presence of a base antibody level."
Whether Prof. Xing Mingyou's prediction is accurate or not, I think it is necessary to prepare in advance (after all, new strains such as BQ.1, XBB, and CH.1.1 have already appeared). At the same time, I suggest that we prepare ourselves in the following three ways:
I. Strengthening exercise and improving one's immunity
In the first wave of the epidemic, it made me realize the importance of physical fitness to a person. The same is infected, the physical quality of people may be a day down basically no big symptoms, but some people are a few days still not good.
For example, I, my colleagues and I are infected by the same person, but colleagues infected with just a fever and cough, still can eat and drink, and in the next day like "no one" as normal work, but I am the body pain unbearable, three days basically did not eat into the meal (drink a little congee), and finally went to hang up the hanging water only! I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that.
So, in our daily life, we still need to strengthen the exercise. You can make a fitness program that suits you, run and play basketball. A strong body, the fight against the new crown is really very top! (Warm tips, the new crown just recovered, avoid strenuous exercise)
Second, regular work and rest, a reasonable combination of diet
Don't go to stay up all night, stay up all night really will be a person's body whole collapse. It is not required to go to bed early and get up early, but it is recommended to rest at night before 11 o'clock and get up before 8 o'clock in the morning. If a person lacks energy and is depressed, then the virus is likely to knock you out all at once. In addition, greasy, spicy to eat less, which is very harmful to the body, the epidemic when the body is healthy is the biggest anti-virus "killers".
Three, appropriate reserves masks, alcohol, medicines and other supplies
Part of the friends must have experienced the first wave of the epidemic lack of medication less masks helpless, so the face of the second wave of the epidemic we have to remember, appropriate reserves some masks, alcohol, disinfectant, hand sanitizer and other medical supplies. We also need to stock up on fever-reducing and cough-relieving medicines, such as Lianhua Qingdian capsule, Xiaochaihu granules, and watermelon cream throat lozenges. (Remember to follow the doctor's instructions)
As the saying goes, "if you have food in your hands, you can't panic in your heart", no matter whether the second wave of the epidemic comes or not, when it comes, as long as we are prepared, we can have the courage to face it openly.
