These are the steps people must take to face the cold front in the country

As temperatures change across the country due to the onset of cold front season, these low temperatures often lead to an increase in respiratory illnesses, which can become chronic if left untreated, explains Dr. Jorge Manzanares.

General practitioners note that people at high risk for these diseases, such as children and the elderly, are susceptible to breeze, wind and cold; therefore, it is recommended to avoid contact to avoid colds and pneumonia.

“Keep children and the elderly warm, avoid pneumonia, bronchiolitis and other diseases related to sudden changes in temperature, and carry out long-term care,” the doctor emphasized.

He added that people should try to keep their vitamins up to date and provide good nutrition wherever possible to keep the defenses of the most vulnerable people high.

In the past seven days, there were 1,659 new cases of pneumonia, a 3% decrease from the previous week.

Both the Nicaraguan Territorial Institute (Ineter) and the Natural Phenomena Observatory (Ofena) predict that the first cold front will enter the country’s territory this week and will last until Wednesday.
