Experts say those who are 65 years of age or older are at higher risk. Experts say that the risk of coronavirus death is highest if you have diabetes, hypertension, heart problems, cancer, and asthma. Coronavirus is dangerous for children and the elderly alike.
Recently in many countries around the world, including the United States, it is said that people aged 60 years and above, who have different physical problems, should avoid the public meeting area. They should stay at home. Here are some tips on how to take care of the elderly -
Store essential items, including medicines:
The necessary medicines and necessary items should be purchased in advance and kept at home. The American Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that elderly people who are homeless and chronically ill have several weeks' worth of drugs and other items kept at home. The CDC has told its citizens to stock up on essential food, medicines,
and other medical supplies in advance. Families care about what medicines their loved ones need. Raise a helping hand toward the elderly at home.
Maintain cleanliness:
It must be clean. Wash your hands with soap and water for 20 seconds. This advice is given to everyone for awareness of coronavirus. If there is no handwash-water, the hands should be rubbed well with a sanitizer. You also need to make sure that the home and the workplace are clean. Clean your home and workplace regularly. Even the electronics are regularly cleaned.
No shares:
In a joint family, everyone lives together. Each person's risk can be different. In such a situation, everyone has to assume that they are at risk. One important thing is that the elderly and the children are in the same family. They have cough and cold at this time or occasionally. In that case, the family should use personal things differently right now. Such as food, water bottles, dishes. If necessary, the sick member should be kept in a separate house. In this case, it is better to arrange separate toilets.There are many elderly people who live alone. In that case, they will have to plan in advance how they will take care of themselves. How to use a phone or e-mail, emergency phone number, doctor's number are all on hand.
Do not panic, discuss:
Without having to panic, COVID-19 should be discussed with neighbors, family, and relatives. In the event of an attack, plan ahead in advance. It is necessary to raise as much awareness of COVID-19 as possible, especially in the elderly. They should be careful not to get out of the house in any way. Reassure the elderly that there is no fear in the disease.Follow the doctor's advice:
It is best to follow the instructions of the physicians, not to increase the fear of Corona. Some days the elderly have to be kept at home rather than leaving the house. This time they can do different types of fits. Healthy food is very much needed at this time. If you do not have a cough and cough, consult a doctor.
The people of the world have been in a rut for fear of coronation. Many countries around the world have locked down their cities. The World Health Organization (WHO) details about COVID-19 on its website. All information about this disease is available there. References: New York Times, CNN
