People first started to notice the many cases of influenza that we were experiencing. Many of us don’t know which part of the workforce is infected with the Covid-19 virus. According to the latest COVID-19 epidemiological bulletin for the state of Minas Gerais, 22,026 Minas Gerais people were infected with the virus within 30 days.
To avoid a new epidemic or pandemic, it is necessary to take basic care, wear a mask, have flu symptoms, and most importantly, get vaccinated. Find the health station closest to your home and drop off your vaccine card that day.
Covid – non-pharmaceutical measures
Use of masks: For people with flu symptoms, suspected or confirmed cases of Covid-19; People who have been in close contact with suspected/confirmed cases of Covid-19; People with risk factors for Covid-19 complications (especially immunosuppression, people with disabilities, pregnant women and people with multiple comorbidities) and in situations where there is a greater risk of contamination, such as old and poorly ventilated premises, congregate and health service settings.

spread
According to the latest evidence, SARS-CoV-2, like other respiratory viruses, is mainly transmitted through contact, droplets or aerosols.
*Contact transmission means infection through direct contact with an infected person.
*Droplet transmission refers to the infection that occurs when an infected person comes into contact with respiratory droplets containing the virus when he or she coughs or breathes, especially within 1 meter of the outdoors.
*Aerosol transmission is an infection caused by tiny respiratory droplets (aerosols) containing the virus, which can remain suspended but do not travel more than 1 meter and for an extended period of time (usually several hours).
