What to do if someone is suffering from covid 19?
Answers
Answer:
WHAT SOMEONE SHOULD DO IF SICK
Stay home in another room, away from other people, and use a separate bathroom if available. Restrict contact with pets and other animals, just like you would around other people. Avoid using public transportation, ride-sharing or taxis.
Wear a cloth face cover when around other people (e.g., sharing a room or vehicle) and before entering a health care provider’s office. See CDC guidelines.
Call a health care provider for medical advice. Older adults and people of any age with serious underlying medical conditions should call a health care provider as soon as symptoms start.
Clean and disinfect all surfaces daily and high-touch surfaces frequently throughout the day in your sick room and designated bathroom. High-touch surfaces include phones, remote controls, counters, tabletops, doorknobs, bathroom fixtures, toilets, keyboards, tablets and bedside tables. Follow CDC guidance.
Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after being in a public place, or after blowing your nose, coughing or sneezing. If soap and water are not readily available, use a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
Cover your coughs and sneezes. Use a tissue to cover your nose and mouth, and throw used tissues in a lined trash can. If a tissue isn’t available, cough or sneeze into your elbow — not your hands. Wash your hands immediately.
Keep track of symptoms, which may appear two to 14 days after exposure. Drinks a lot of fluids to stay hydrated and rest at home. Follow your health care provider’s instructions......
