Prevention methods:

Washing hands frequently, indoor ventilation frequently, paying attention to nutrition and keeping healthy are conducive to preventing respiratory infectious diseases such as influenza.

When symptoms of respiratory tract infection such as sneezing and coughing appear, cover your mouth and nose with paper towels and handkerchiefs to prevent infection.

In addition, special attention should be paid to avoid direct contact with dead poultry and livestock.

All food, including eggs, should be cooked thoroughly, and don't eat leftovers after meals.

To prevent influenza, Chinese medicine suggests that you rinse your mouth with green tea after three meals before going to bed every morning, and catechin covers the virus to reduce infection, but these are extra health care. A balanced diet, adequate sleep and vitamin C supplementation can enhance immunity and fight viruses.
