Prevention of HMPV

 

Prevention of HMPV

The same precautions that help prevent other respiratory viruses apply to HMPV:

1.     Hand Hygiene:

o    Wash hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.

o    Use alcohol-based hand sanitiser when soap isn’t available.

2.     Avoid Close Contact:

o    Avoid close contact with people who are sick.

o    Stay home if you feel unwell to prevent spreading the virus.

3.     Cough Etiquette:

o    Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or elbow when coughing/sneezing.

o    Dispose of tissues immediately and wash your hands.

4.     Disinfect Surfaces:

o    Regularly clean frequently touched objects (e.g., doorknobs, phones, and toys).

5.     Masks:

o    Wear a mask if you’re sick or in crowded indoor areas, particularly during outbreaks.

6.     Boost Immunity:

o    Maintain a healthy diet, exercise regularly, and get adequate sleep.

o    Consider vaccinations for related illnesses like influenza or pneumonia, as these can weaken respiratory defences.
