how can we prevent us from cholera?
Answers
Answer:
1. Make sure to drink and use safe water to brush your teeth, wash and prepare food, and make ice
It is safe to drink and use bottled water with unbroken seals, and canned or bottled carbonated beverages.
If bottled water is not available, use water that has been properly boiled, chlorinated, or filtered:
Boiling is the most effective way to make water safe. If boiling, bring your water to a complete boil for at least 1 minute.
If boiling is not possible, you can use a chlorine product (i.e., granules or product tablets) to make your water safe. To treat your water with chlorine granules or tablets, use one of the locally available treatment products and follow the instructions.
If a chlorine treatment product is not available, you can treat your water with household bleach. Visit CDC’s Making Water Safe in an Emergency page for specific instructions on how to treat your water with household bleach.
Always store your treated water in a clean, covered container.
Clean food preparation areas and kitchenware with soap and safe water and let them dry completely before reuse.
Piped water sources, drinks sold in cups or bags, and ice may not be safe. If you suspect your water may not be safe, boil or treat it with a chlorine product.
2. Wash your hands often with soap and safe water*
Before, during, and after preparing food for yourself or your family
After using the latrine or toilet
After cleaning your child’s bottom
Before and after caring for someone with cholera
Follow the five steps to washing hands the right way:
Wet your hands with clean water.
Apply soap to your hands and rub them together. Be sure to lather the back of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails.
Scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds.
Rinse your hands well under clean water.
Allow your hands to air dry or dry them with a clean towel.
* If proper handwashing resources are not available, wash your hands using water that is as clean as possible (e.g. that’s not visibly cloudy) from a safe source (e.g., an improved source like a borehole or protected spring)
