We caught gastroenteritis by eating contaminated food or drinking contaminated water but also by direct contact with patients. Thus, to avoid being infected, no mystery! Do this:
- Ensure the hygiene of hands and surfaces. Wash hands with soap often and as carefully as possible, do not share glasses of water or covered table …
- Attention to food preparation. When preparing meals (especially in community), the strict rules of hygiene (washing hands, wearing gloves for single use) must be respected. Sick people should obviously not involved in the preparation of meals.
- Two vaccines are available. In 2006, two vaccines have been marketed in France. Their effectiveness has been demonstrated against layers more widespread in Europe and the United States. Seized on the possibility of mass vaccination, the Higher Council of Public Health has decided to postpone for the time recommended for infants under 6 months. This review (available online) will be reviewed within two years.
- The re hydration solution. These compounds are the best prevention of complications of diarrhea. Allowing early re hydration, these products are reimbursed by social security.
Those already sick must of course take all these precautions. A mother ill ensure that you wash your hands before touching systematically his children and cook. It also will limit contacts to a minimum. For infants, the least anxiety on file at the doctor or emergency. In children and older people on standby to make them drink plenty of water or special rehydration solution sold in pharmacies. And if you’re sick that you are not relieved of your spa water. Plenty of rest and time will get through this little evil Winter
