matters needing attention

If all the obvious or hidden purulent lesions can be cleared as soon as possible, the incidence of bacteremia can be reduced. Children's common infectious diseases such as measles, influenza, pertussis, etc. are prone to secondary severe respiratory tract bacterial infection, resulting in bacteremia. It is necessary to strengthen the protection of these children. No matter how small the wound is, we must pay attention to it and deal with it as early as possible.
