Second: even if you go to the hospital, you should wear a mask, keep in a good mood, and ensure sleep. Sleep accounts for one third of our life time, so we usually have to sleep well, keep 7 to 8 hours of sleep every day, and drink more water, pay attention to the ventilation of the bedroom.

Third: We patients should go to the hospital for vaccination treatment, and we should pay more attention to hygiene at ordinary times. No matter what the disease is, we need to pay attention to hygiene, which requires us to wash our hands frequently at ordinary times, and wash our hands before and after meals, so as to avoid the disease coming from the mouth and avoid going to some public places with many people.
