袁國勇醫生,當年香港SARS的抗疫英雄,對於防範新型冠狀病毒肺炎,作出以下建議:

1.
Avoid going to China during this period of time.不要去感染高危險地區。

2.
If going on a flight or taking a public transportation, make sure you wear a mask.
如果坐飛機或大眾運輸工具一定要帶口罩。

3.
Always have antiseptic cleanser or towel readily available.
隨身攜帶消毒噴霧,消毒濕纸巾。

4.
The virus “Coronavirus” is a similar type of virus like the previous SARS or MERS. This time it is OC43. There is still no known method of tackling this virus.

5.
If you have to go to the market, make sure you wear a mask. Be very vigilant.
去菜市場必須帶口罩,必須要非常非常警惕!

6.
As the virus is found to be able to enter your body if your throat or throat mucous
is dry, make sure to keep your throat or throat mucous in a moist condition. Not to allow your throat to become dry, as in 10 minutes of being dry, the virus will find ways to enter your body. Do not refrain from drinking water, always have a bottle handy.
如果你的喉嚨很乾,或者喉嚨黏膜很乾,病毒較容易進入體內,盡量保持喉嚨濕潤,是一個預防的方法。只要你的喉嚨乾涸超過10分鐘,病毒就容易侵入身體,千萬記得要喝水。

7.
For adults, 50-80cc of warm water is recommended; for children 30-50cc. Just drink
if you feel your throat is dry. It is not necessary to drink more than the amount recommended. The idea is to “Keep Your Throat Constantly Moist”.
一口渴,馬上喝水,大人每口喝50-80cc,小孩每口喝30-50cc,不需要喝過量的水,只要保持喉嚨濕潤即可。
