It is important to remember that we must regularly wash and disinfect our hands to eliminate bacteria and prevent the spread of the flu virus. This is not just about removing dirt but also about destroying the flu viruses that can put you and your loved ones at risk. "Filipinos are inherently warm and loving, always ready to provide comfort or a comforting hug, but maintaining distance from sick individuals is the best way to show your love not only for yourself but also for others you may encounter in the future," noted the experts. An important aspect of protecting oneself and loved ones is vaccination, which is considered one of the most effective ways to prevent flu infection and its spread, which is particularly important for the Filipino community, where family plays a key role. It is important to remember to avoid close contact with sick people and to seek medical help if symptoms of the flu appear. To break the chain of virus transmission and prevent its spread, experts recommend regularly washing and disinfecting hands, maintaining good respiratory hygiene, and cleaning surfaces and instruments. Flu symptoms include cough, headache, high temperature, sore throat, fatigue, body aches, and in young children, vomiting and diarrhea. It should be noted that prevention is essential for treatment, and vaccination is one of the ways to prevent the flu. It is impossible to underestimate preventive measures, represented by the CDC since the beginning of the flu season. It is important to avoid contact with sick individuals and monitor your health.
