上将该项涂黑,
We are surrounded by the news about COVID-19 and other viruses(),but how
much do you really know about them?Viruses that infect (humans nearly always
cause illness.Fortunately,just as we know a lot about how viruses harm us,so do we
know how to prevent them.These facts are a good place to start.
Being infected without signs is possible
Some viruses,including those that cause herpes,COVID-19,and AIDS,can be spread
through asymptomatic(无症状的)people and presymptomatic(症状发生前的)people,
according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).Some of them may
even be "super spreaders",infecting dozens to hundreds of other people without even
realizing it.Take action to prevent spreading viruses even when you don't feel sick.
Hand washing is protective
Wash your hands.This is a piece of advice given by World Health Organization
(WHO).Make sure to wash your hands with soap for at least 20 seconds and dry your
hands on a clean towel.Don't use air dryers in public restrooms.
Regular exercise is helpful
Do regular exercise.Regular exercise,which can include taking quick walks,has been
shown to improve your immune system,thus reducing your possibilities of developing a
cold or the flu.But don't overdo it,for example,training for a long marathon without
professional guidance.
·Herd immunity(群体免疫)is hard to achieve
You may have read that you needn't get vaccinated()if you live in a place where
most people have had the disease or the vaccine,allowing you to make use of herd
immunity.But effeetive herd immunity requires that more than 90 percent of the population
be vaccinated against a disease.
