Uphando lubonisa ukuba abantu abaqhelekileyo babamba ii-smartphones zabo ngaphezulu kwamaxesha angama-2,000 ngosuku. Ke ngoko, ayimangalisi into yokuba iiselfowuni zinokuba neebhaktheriya ezininzi kunye neebhaktheriya. Ezinye iingcali ziqikelela ukuba inani lebhaktheriya kwiifowuni eziphathwayo liphindwe ka-10 inani lebhaktheriya kwizihlalo zangasese.
Kodwa ukukhuhla ifowuni ngesibulali-ntsholongwane kungonakalisa isikrini. Ke, xa iintsholongwane zokuphefumla ukusuka kumkhuhlane ukuya kwi-coronavirus zisasazeka kuyo yonke indawo, ngaba isepha eqhelekileyo kunye namanzi zinokuba nefuthe lokuchasa ukudumba? Oku kulandelayo yeyona ndlela ilungileyo yokugcina ifowuni kunye nezandla zakho zicocekile.
Okwangoku, kukho amatyala angama-761 aqinisekisiweyo e-coronavirus eUnited States kunye nokufa kwabantu abangama-23. Ngokwale mbono, umkhuhlane oqhelekileyo kunyaka ophelileyo uqikelelwe ukuba wosulele abantu abazizigidi ezingama-35.5.
Nangona kunjalo, xa kufikwa kwi-coronavirus (ngoku ebizwa ngokuba yi-COVID-19), isepha eqhelekileyo isenokungonelanga ukucoca izixhobo zakho. Akukacaci ukuba i-coronavirus inokuhlala ixesha elingakanani kumphezulu, ke i-CDC icebisa ukuba kucocwe kwaye kubulawe iintsholongwane kwizinto ezihlala zichukunyiswa kunye nemigangatho ngezitshizi zokucoca indlu rhoqo okanye zosule ukunqanda ukusasazeka.
I-Arhente yoKhuseleko lokusiNgqongileyo ikhuphe uluhlu lweemveliso ze-antimicrobial ezinokuthi zisetyenziswe ukubulala iintsholongwane kwindawo eyosulelwe yi-COVID-19, kubandakanya iimveliso zokucoca ikhaya eziqhelekileyo ezifana neClorox yokucoca iintsholongwane kunye nokucocwa kohlobo lweLysol kunye nezicoci ezintsha ezinomhlaba omninzi.
ingxaki? Izicoci zamakhaya kunye neekhemikhali ezisesepha zinokusonakalisa isikrini sesixhobo.
Ngokwewebhusayithi ye-Apple, isibulala-zintsholongwane siya kunxiba "i-oleophobic coating" yesikrini, eyenzelwe ukugcina isikrini singenamnwe kwaye singenabungqina bokufuma. Ngesi sizathu, i-Apple ithe kufuneka uphephe iimveliso zokucoca kunye nezixhobo ezirhabaxa, ezinokuchaphazela ukugquma kwaye zenze i-iPhone yakho ichaphazeleke ngakumbi kukukrwela. I-Samsung incoma ukuba abasebenzisi beGalaxy baphephe ukusebenzisa i-Windex okanye izicoci zefestile kunye "neekhemikhali ezinamandla" kwisikrini.
Kodwa ngoMvulo, i-Apple ihlaziye iingcebiso zayo zokucoca, ichaza ukuba ungasebenzisa i-70% isopropyl yotywala utywala okanye iClorox yokucoca iintsholongwane, "zosula ngobunono iindawo eziqinileyo zeemveliso ze-Apple, ezinje ngemiboniso, iikhibhodi, okanye ezinye iindawo zangaphandle. “Nangona kunjalo, ngokwewebhusayithi ye-Apple, akufuneki usebenzise ibleach okanye untywilisele isixhobo sakho kwiimveliso zokucoca.
Nangona izicoci zokukhanya kwe-UV-C zingayi kukwenzakalisa ifowuni yakho, kwaye izifundo zibonise ukuba ukukhanya kwe-UV-C kunokubulala iintsholongwane zomkhuhlane, "i-UV-C ingena kumphezulu kwaye ukukhanya akukwazi ukungena kwiikona kunye nemigqomo," utshilo uPhilip Tierno. Unjingalwazi weklinikhi kwiSebe lePathology kwiYunivesithi yaseNew York iLange Medical Centre uxelele iNBC News.
U-Emily Martin, unjingalwazi onxulumene ne-epidemiology kwiYunivesithi yaseMichigan yeSikolo seMpilo yoLuntu, uxelele i-CNBC Yenze ukuba idla ngokuba ngumbono olungileyo ukusula ifowuni okanye ukuyicoca ngesepha kunye nenani elincinci lamanzi, okanye ukuyithintela ekufumaneni. imdaka.
UMartin uthe, kodwa iiselfowuni ziya kuhlala zisiba ziindawo ezishushu kwiibhaktheriya kuba uzibeka kwiindawo apho izifo ezosulelayo zinokungena khona, njengamehlo, impumlo kunye nomlomo. Ukongeza, abantu badla ngokuphatha iiselfowuni zabo, kubandakanywa nezona zindlu zangasese zingcoliseke kakhulu.
Ke ngoko, ukongeza ekucoceni iselfowuni, ukuphepha iselfowuni kwigumbi lokuhlambela "kulungile kwimpilo yoluntu," utshilo uMartin. Kufuneka kwakhona uhlambe izandla zakho emva kokusebenzisa indlu yangasese, nokuba uneselfowuni okanye awunayo. (Uphando lubonisa ukuba i-30% yabantu abazihlambi izandla zabo emva kokuphuma kwindlu yangasese.)
UMartin uthe eneneni, xa izifo ezinjengomkhuhlane okanye i-coronavirus zixhaphakile, ukuhlamba izandla rhoqo kwaye ngokuchanekileyo lelona cebiso lilungileyo onokuthi ulilandele.
I-CDC ibongoza abantu ukuba bakuphephe ukuphatha amehlo, impumlo kunye nomlomo ngezandla ezingahlanjwanga, kwaye baphephe ukunxibelelana ngokusondeleyo nabantu abagulayo. Kufuneka kwakhona uhlambe izandla zakho phambi, ngexesha nasemva kokulungiselela ukutya okanye ukutya, utshintshe amanabukeni, uvuthuze impumlo, ukukhohlela okanye ukuthimla.
“Njengazo zonke iintsholongwane zokuphefumla, kubalulekile ukuba uhlale ekhaya kangangoko xa ugula,” utshilo uMartin. "Kubalulekile ukuba abaqeshi bakhuthaze kwaye baxhase abo bafuna ukwenza oku."
