Dear colleagues and students,

Recently, there are several outbreaks of Seasonal Influenza in the community. We are reminded to strengthen personal protection to lower the risk of infection.

  1. Vaccinate against Seasonal Influenza;
  2. Put on a mask if you develop influenza-like symptoms, take care of patients or enter medical institutions; 
  3. Sleep well; have a balanced diet and exercise frequently;
  4. Maintain good personal hygiene; wash hands frequently;
  5. Use tissue paper to cover your mouth and nose when sneezing and coughing; use tissue paper to wrap the secretion and throw it into the rubbish bin with lid; wash hands immediately. If tissue paper is not available, cover your mouth and nose with elbow instead of palm;
  6. Maintain good ventilation and environmental hygiene;
  7. Avoid going to crowded places; 
  8. Seek medical assistance at Medical Center of UM if you are not feeling well. (Opening hours: Monday to Saturday; 09:00 – 13:00 and 14:00 – 18:00).

Thank you for your attention.
