As everyone knows, during the onset of cold weather and climate change in various regions of the country, the number of cases of viral infections is inexorably increasing. The coronavirus infection does not remain without attention, because the forecasts for The next covid-19 outbreak in the coming autumn-winter period are not comforting.  

 

What is the reason for the increase in Covid-19 infections?  

 

First, the coronavirus and its other strains are especially common in winter, when other infections "bloom" without it.  

 

Secondly, during the heating season, the indoor air becomes less humid. The mucous membranes of the nose are dry, and therefore it is easy for virus particles to settle and multiply on them. In addition, viral particles in dry, not humidified air easily spread through it, which increases the risk of developing infectious diseases transmitted by airborne droplets.  

 

Based on this, public health workers in the United States of America warn of a new outbreak of coronavirus infection and urge to observe their own safety measures against not only Covid-19, but also other viral infections, such as seasonal flu. 

 

Do not forget about security measures: personal hygiene, wearing medical masks, maintaining social distance, restricting movement in public places, and providing necessary food to restrict movement in stores. The population of the country should be prepared for a strict quarantine, spending time at home, preparing their "reserve" of patience and ideas for entertainment at home with family and friends.
