Know the basics of the COVID-19
The advice of Dr. Edsel Salvana , an infectious diseases specialist, is to review the basics :
1. COVID-19 is the disease, the virus is called SARS-CoV-2.
2. Most people will recover, the current mortality rate is anywhere from 1 to 3%.
3. Older people and those with chronic illnesses are at higher risk.
4.People above 60 years old have the highest risk of dying and should avoid exposure to this disease.
5. Get your flu shot.
6.Wash your hands.
7. If you are sick, wear a surgical mask.
8. Stay at home if you are sick unless you need to see the doctor or you need to be hospitalized.
9. Avoid unnecessary travel.
10. Avoid crowds.
11. Follow instructions. If you were exposed, stick to the 14-day quarantine.
It is important to seek accurate and credible information . The more information we have, the better people take care. Being dismissive and playing down the #coronavirus puts us in even more danger. While I laud the frontliners in the fight vs the COVID-19, the government “DON’T PANIC” call isn’t enough. Keep the people more informed, give an honest assessment, and provide a plan of action. It is one reason I call out the DOH for transparency and a better communication system.
