H3N2 Virus and Covid cases rise: 

There has been a surge in the cases of Covid in India once again. After about 3 months, more than 500 cases have been reported. At the same time, a rapid increase in cases of the H3N2 Virus is also being seen in the country. While these diseases and infections are not very critical in all cases, the problem can be solved by taking care of your hygiene and cleanliness, especially your hands. During the covid lockdown, health experts advised to keep washing your hands to keep the Virus at bay. In the current situation, the need to do the same has arrived yet again. The guidelines issued by the Ministry of Health also claim that the hands are the most common carriers of infections and viruses.

 
Why is it important to wash hands?

Washing hands can be the easiest way to avoid infectious diseases. Whether it is the H3N2 Virus or covid, both are respiratory infectious diseases and their first area of infection is the lungs. In such a situation, as soon as you get an infection, problems related to cough, cold, and breathing start appearing in the body. Further, the infectious droplets get mixed in the air when an infected person breathes, spits, coughs, or sneezes due to which the risk of infection increases. In such a situation, washing hands frequently can be helpful in the prevention of infection.

How to wash your hands:

To prevent covid and the H3N2 Virus, wash your hands frequently with soap and water. Also use hand sanitizer every few hours.

Covid and H3N2 Virus-Prevention Tips:

Avoid touching your face and nose, it can spread the infection.
Avoid crowded places and use a mask.
If you are sick, spend 7 days at home until the infection subsides
Cover your mouth and nose while sneezing and coughing or wear a mask.
Not only this, avoid physical contact such as handshakes and hugs so that you do not come in contact with that person’s air droplets
Also don’t spit in public
Drink plenty of water and get proper treatment from the doctor
Maintain social distancing

Diagnosing devices for infectious diseases, such as Covid-19, will likely be included in innovative medical equipment.

Rep. Kim Min-seok of the opposition Democratic Party of Korea said Monday that he had proposed a revision bill of the act on fostering and supporting innovative medical equipment.

The amendment stipulates that the central and local governments provide support for researching, developing, and commercializing devices for the quick diagnosis of infectious diseases by including related products in the category of innovative medical equipment.

The current target areas for the government’s designation of new medical devices include cutting-edge technology with high technological intensity and rapid innovation speed.

Also included in this category is equipment, which will likely improve existing medical technology drastically, which urgently requires the development of core technology applicable to medical devices, and which has few alternative medical devices or whose domestic supply is difficult in diagnosing and treating rare and intractable diseases.

The cutting-edge technology group includes artificial intelligence and big data technology, digital-wearable technology, medical robotics technology, smart care technology, and the next-generation in vitro diagnostic technology.

“The Covid-19 pandemic showed the appearance of new infectious disease or the inflow of infectious diseases that had been unknown in this country could destroy the quarantine system and threaten public health significantly,” Rep. Kim said. “On the other hand, the swift development and use of medical devices, including diagnostic kits, can prevent the spread of Covid-19 and protect public health.”

Kim stressed the need to continue to develop and manufacture diagnostic reagents and medical devices to prepare for the spread of infectious diseases that can attack the nation unexpectedly.

“Therefore, the government needs to support it for the public good,” he added.

The current epidemic of avian influenza has killed over 58 million birds in the U.S. as of February 2023. Following on the heels of the COVID-19 pandemic, large outbreaks of viruses like bird flu raise the specter of another disease jumping from animals into humans. This process is called spillover.
