EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION FRAY PLACIDO


ENGLISH´S TUTORIAL

FASE AFECTIVA

The new Coronavirus (COVID-19) has been classified by the World Health Organization as a public health emergency of international importance (ESPII). Cases have been identified on all continents and the first case in Colombia was confirmed on March 6.

Infection occurs when a sick person coughs or sneezes and expels virus particles that come in contact with other people.

The most effective measure to prevent COVID-19 is to wash your hands properly, with soap and water. Doing so frequently reduces the risk of contracting coronavirus by up to 50%. Similarly, other daily preventive measures are recommended to help prevent the spread of respiratory diseases.

the most important to remember is:

· Avoid close contact with sick people

· When sneezing, cover yourself with the inside of your elbow

· If you have cold symptoms, stay home and wear face masks

· Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces

· Ventilate your house

FASE COGNITIVA

What are coronaviruses?

Coronaviruses are a large group of viruses that can cause illness in animals and humans. Some coronaviruses commonly circulate in the United States and usually cause upper respiratory symptoms such as cough or runny nose, although some can cause more serious illness.



What is COVID-19?

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a disease that was identified in late 2019 and was declared a pandemic on March 11. COVID-19 is an international public health emergency.

· Wash hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds at a time.

· Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands.

· Avoid close contact with people who are ill.

· Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze.

· Do not reuse tissue after coughing, sneezing or blowing your nose.

· Clean and disinfect surfaces that are frequently touched.

How does COVID-19 spread?


Coronaviruses like COVID-19 are most often spread through the air by coughing or sneezing, through close personal contact (including touching and shaking hands) or through touching your nose, mouth or eyes before washing your hands.

Symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, cough and shortness of breath. Symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure

The W.H.O (World Health Organization) recommends you stay home and separate yourself from other people in the home as much as possible if:

· You are sick with COVID-19

· You believe you might have it

· You think you might have COVID-19 and have mild symptoms

Before going to a health care provider, clinic, hospital or emergency room, call ahead to describe your symptoms and how you might have been exposed to the virus. In the event of an emergency call 3118784864, Covid line in Putumayo.


Population with more risk

No one group, ethnicity or population in the world is more likely to get or spread coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) than others. While some people may be worried or have concerns about COVID-19, it is important to not let fear lead to social stigma toward others but Those at greatest risk for complications are those over the age of 65 and people of all ages with certain conditions, such as immunosuppression or chronic heart, lung, kidney, liver, blood, or metabolic diseases (for example, diabetes).

Know the Symptoms


COVID-19 is a respiratory illness with symptoms similar to the flu. Symptoms are typically mild to moderate, but there have been cases of severe illness and death due to the virus. The following symptoms may appear 2-14 days after exposure.

Fever

Cough

Shortness of breath

Steps to Take for Mild Symptoms

For people who think they might have COVID-19 and have mild symptoms, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now recommends they stay home and call their doctor if they need medical advice. When people with mild illness leave their homes to get tested, they could expose themselves to COVID-19 if they do not already have it. If they do have COVID-19, they can give it to someone else, including people who are high risk and health care providers who will be needed to care for people with more severe illness. In addition, because there is no treatment for COVID-19, a test will not change what someone with mild symptoms will do.


When Can I Return to Normal Activities?

People who are sick with COVID-19 or believe they might have it should stay home and separate themselves from other people in the home as much as possible. They can go back to their normal activities when they can answer YES to all the following questions:

· Has it been at least 7 days since you first had symptoms?

· Have you been without fever for three days (72 hours) without any medicine for fever?

· Are your other symptoms improved?


Limit Exposure

Household members and people who have been in close contact with someone who has had symptoms of COVID-19 should stay home as much as possible for 14 days and monitor themselves for symptoms. Close contact means within six feet for at least 10 minutes. If they start having symptoms of COVID-19, they should take the same steps to prevent spreading it.

Coronaviruses like COVID-19 are most often spread through the air by coughing or sneezing, through close personal contact (including touching and shaking hands) or through touching your nose, mouth or eyes before washing your hands. W.H.O. (World Health Organization) recommends that persons experiencing fever and cough should stay at home and not go out until their symptoms have completely resolved.

The Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has actions you can take to prevent others from getting sick. This includes:



· Avoiding contact with others.

· Covering your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing.

· Not traveling or going to school or work while sick.

· Washing your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.



Know the Difference: Self-monitor, Quarantine and Isolation



These are protective measures used to prevent the spread of COVID-19 among people who may have been exposed.

Self-monitoring is for those that may have been exposed to a person with COVID-19. They should monitor themselves for symptoms (fever, cough, and shortness of breath). Self-monitoring means people should monitor themselves for fever by taking their temperatures twice a day and remain alert for cough or difficulty breathing. If they develop symptoms during the self-monitoring period, they should self-isolate, limit contact with others, and seek medical advice by telephone.

Quarantine is for people who were exposed to a person with a confirmed case of COVID-19 but are not experiencing symptoms. Contact your local health department or medical provider if you are unsure if you should self-quarantine.

Isolation separates people who are sick from those who are well. People who have tested positive for COVID-19 in Colombia in isolation.
