In the past two days, the new type of pneumonia in Wuhan has affected the hearts of people all over the world
.
.
With the confirmation of the human-to-human transmission of the new type of pneumonia, the number of confirmed cases of the new type of pneumonia began to surge
.
As of nine o'clock this evening, a total of 309 confirmed cases of pneumonia infected by the new coronavirus have been reported in China, and one confirmed case has also appeared in Taiwan

.
Outside of China, Singapore has found 7 suspected cases of new pneumonia, Japan notified 1 confirmed case, Thailand notified 2 confirmed cases, and South Korea notified 1 confirmed case
.
.
The continuous expansion of the new type of pneumonia continues to aggravate the panic in people's hearts.
Now my various groups are reporting where there are suspected or confirmed cases at any time

In addition to reporting the epidemic situation, many people are also reposting some statements about the prevention of new pneumonia
.
Today, many people are referring to a person who claims to be from the front line of Wuhan, claiming that putting white vinegar on the radiator can kill the virus in the room; eating VC effervescent tablets can improve immunity and prevent infection

Today, many people are referring to a person who claims to be from the front line of Wuhan, claiming that putting white vinegar on the radiator can kill the virus in the room; eating VC effervescent tablets can improve immunity and prevent infection
.
Can these measures really prevent the new type of pneumonia in Wuhan? In fact, these two methods are completely useless
.
To give this kind of advice is either stupid or bad!

01 Can white vinegar be placed on the radiator to disinfect indoor air?
Let me talk about white vinegar first
.
.
White vinegar is a commonly used seasoning in our family.
Its acetic acid, also known as acetic acid and glacial acetic acid, has a chemical structure of CH3COOH

Its acetic acid, also known as acetic acid and glacial acetic acid, has a chemical structure of CH3COOH

Acetic acid does have a certain bactericidal effect
.
Those who have done food or chemical or biological experiments must have been exposed to glacial acetic acid.
If they accidentally touch their hands, their skin will be corroded
.
So, does it mean that white vinegar can disinfect indoor air by putting it on the radiator?

.
So, does it mean that white vinegar can disinfect indoor air by putting it on the radiator?
This is totally whimsical
.
.
First of all, the concentration of acetic acid in ordinary edible white vinegar is very low, which is far from the high concentration of white acetic acid used in the experiment
.
.
Generally, the proportion in vinegar is about 6%-8%.
At this point, the concentration of acetic acid, released into the air, is even lower, and it is almost impossible to kill the virus

.
Secondly, even a high concentration of acetic acid is not suitable for fumigation
.
.
In fact, peroxyacetic acid is used for fumigation and air disinfection, and its chemical structure is simply CH3COOOH
.
It has one more oxygen atom than acetic acid, and this extra oxygen atom has a strong oxidizing ability, so that it can kill various pathogens
.
It is somewhat similar to hydrogen peroxide (hydrogen peroxide)
.
The "fumigation and disinfection method" required by China's health industry standards uses an aqueous solution of peracetic acid (1g/m3)

02Can eating vitamin C effervescent tablets enhance immunity?
The saying that eating VC prevents colds has been circulating among the people
.
But in fact, this statement does not have sufficient basis
.
In either prevent colds, vitamin C by eating two are useless
.

Vitamin C was first used to treat colds from the practice of some doctors
.
In the 1940s, some doctors began to use high-dose vitamin C to treat a variety of diseases
.
An important reason why this statement is widely praised is because of the recommendation of Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling

Linus Pauling is the winner of two Nobel Prizes
.
In 1966, Linus Pauling was exposed to the treatment concept of high-dose vitamin C through the biochemist Irwin Stone
.
Since then, Pauling has taken 3 grams of vitamin C a day to prevent the common cold, and published a book "Vitamin C and the Common Cold" in 1970 to promote this view

A large number of scientific studies have confirmed that vitamin C does not reduce the incidence of colds

Colds are divided into common colds and influenza
.
The common cold does not have a so-called seasonal pattern.
It occurs all year round.
The climate changes in spring and autumn and may be more likely to occur.
Usually, it can heal itself without treatment, and it can be cured without taking medicine
.
Saying "Vitamin C prevents colds" is at best only useful for the common cold, but the common cold can be cured without taking medicine

The more serious one is influenza caused by influenza virus, which may be caused by a variety of viruses
.
The flu situation is much more serious, and it may cause death if it is not treated in time
.
And VC has little effect on influenza

Some studies have analyzed 29 trials involving 11,306 subjects.
The conclusion is that vitamin C supplements are not effective in reducing the incidence of common colds.
Some studies have shown that people who usually take vitamin C continue to catch colds.
The time is relatively short, but this has not been confirmed in the few trials that have been conducted on the treatment of cold patients
.
As for the prevention of virus-induced flu, there is currently no high-quality clinical research to prove that regular vitamin C supplementation can play a preventive role

This new type of pneumonia in Wuhan is caused by a new type of coronavirus, and we are still full of unknowns about it
.
If you take two tablets of vitamin C, you can easily solve the problem, and the epidemic has long been brought under control!

03How to prevent?
At this time, everyone must not be fooled by some rumors.
To prevent new pneumonia, the key to achieve these points:
To prevent new pneumonia, the key to achieve these points:
➊ Wash hands frequently and pay attention to personal hygiene
.
.
Hands are exposed to various pathogens, and coronavirus is no exception.
Hand washing is one of the clear preventive measures
.
It is recommended that you use soap and running water and rub your hands for no less than 20 seconds

.
Smoking white vinegar and eating VC tablets cannot prevent new pneumonia! This should be done to prevent new pneumonia
If it is not convenient to find water and soap when you are away, you can use a hand sanitizer containing 70-80% alcohol
.
.
➋ Wear a mask reasonably
.
.
It is recommended to go to less or less crowded places and avoid close contact with any patients with flu symptoms
.
If you must go, wear a mask reasonably to reduce the risk of infection

➌ Avoid contact with wild animals and do not eat game
.
.
This new type of pneumonia comes from wild animals
.
It is recommended that you avoid contact with wild animals as much as possible during the Spring Festival, do not hunt, sell, or buy game, keep your mouth shut, and do not eat game

➍ Protect yourself
.
.
Avoid contact with possible pathogens, avoid contact with possible sources of infection
.
Usually strengthen exercise, eat a reasonable diet, pay attention to balanced nutrition, and get enough rest to improve the body's ability to resist virus invasion

If cough, sputum, or fever (body temperature> 38°C) occurs, seek medical attention in time
