Inoveli coronavirus inokungena emzimbeni wakho ngamehlo, ukongeza kwimpumlo nasemlonyeni.

Xa umntu ene-SARS-CoV-2 (intsholongwane ebangela i-COVID-19) ethimla, ekhohlela okanye ethetha, usasaza amathontsi aqulathe intsholongwane. Kungenzeka ukuba uphefumle kula mathontsi, kodwa intsholongwane inokungena emzimbeni wakho ngamehlo akho.

Enye indlela onokuyifumana ngayo intsholongwane kukuba le ntsholongwane iwele ezandleni zakho okanye eminweni yakho, emva koko uthinte impumlo, umlomo okanye amehlo. Nangona kunjalo, oku akuqhelekanga.

Kusenemibuzo emininzi malunga nokuba yintoni enokuthi kwaye ingenako ukwandisa umngcipheko wokungena kwisibambiso se-SARS-CoV-2. Umbuzo omnye ngowokuba kukhuselekile na ukunxiba iilensi zonxibelelwano, okanye ukuba oku kungawonyusa umngcipheko.

Kweli nqaku, siza kukunceda uphendule lo mbuzo kwaye sabelane ngeengcebiso malunga nendlela yokukhathalela ngokukhuselekileyo amehlo akho ngexesha lobhubhane we-coronavirus.

Luthini uphando?

Okwangoku abukho ubungqina bokuba ukunxiba iilensi zonxibelelwano kwandisa umngcipheko wokufumana ikhoronavirus entsha.

Kukho ubungqina bokuba ungayifumana i-COVID-19 ngokuchukumisa umphezulu ongcoliswe yi-SARS-CoV-2, emva koko uchukumise amehlo ngaphandle kokuhlamba izandla.

Ukuba unxiba iilensi zonxibelelwano, uchukumisa amehlo akho ngaphezu kwabantu abangazinxibanga. Oku kunokuphakamisa umngcipheko. Kodwa iindawo ezingcolileyo aziyondlela iphambili yokusasazeka kwe-SARS-CoV-2. Ukuhlamba izandla kakuhle, ngakumbi emva kokuchukumisa umphezulu, kunokukugcina ukhuselekile.

Ukongeza, inkqubo yokucoca iilensi ye-hydrogen peroxide kunye nenkqubo yokubulala iintsholongwane inokubulala i-coronavirus entsha. Akukabikho phando lwaneleyo lwenziweyo okwangoku ukwazi ukuba ezinye izisombululo zokucoca zinempembelelo efanayo.

Akukho bungqina bokuba ukunxiba iiglasi zamehlo rhoqo kuyakukhusela ekungeneni kwisivumelwano neSARS-CoV-2.

Iingcebiso ngononophelo lwamehlo olukhuselekileyo ngexesha lobhubhane we-coronavirus

Eyona ndlela ibalulekileyo yokugcina amehlo akho ekhuselekile ngexesha lobhubhane we-coronavirus kukuziqhelanisa nococeko ngawo onke amaxesha xa uphatha iilensi zakho zonxibelelwano.

Iingcebiso zokucoceka kwamehlo

• Hlamba izandla zakho rhoqo. Ngalo lonke ixesha hlamba izandla zakho ngaphambi kokuchukumisa amehlo, kubandakanya xa ukhupha okanye ubeka iilensi zakho.
• Zibulale iintsholongwane kwiilensi zakho xa uzikhupha ekupheleni kosuku. Zibulale iintsholongwane kwakhona kusasa phambi kokuzifaka.
• Sebenzisa isisombululo seelensi zonxibelelwano. Ungaze usebenzise itephu okanye amanzi asebhotileni okanye amathe ukugcina iilensi zakho.
• Sebenzisa isisombululo esitsha ukucoca iilensi zakho zonxibelelwano yonke imihla.
• Lahla ngaphandle Iilensi zonxibelelwano ezilahlwayo emva kokunxiba.
• Musa ukulala kwiilensi zakho zonxibelelwano. Ukulala kwiilensi zakho zonxibelelwano kwandisa kakhulu umngcipheko wokufumana usulelo lwamehlo.
• Coca imeko yakho yeelensi zonxibelelwano usebenzisa isisombululo selensi yokunxibelelana, kwaye ubeke endaweni yakho imeko yakho rhoqo kwiinyanga ezi-3.
• Musa ukunxiba abafowunelwa bakho ukuba uqala ukuziva ugula. Sebenzisa iilensi ezintsha kunye necala elitsha xa uqala ukunxiba kwakhona.
• Kuphephe ukukhuhlaokanye ukuchukumisa amehlo akho. Ukuba ufuna ukuthambisa amehlo akho, qiniseka ukuba uhlamba izandla zakho kuqala.
• Cinga ukusebenzisa i-hydrogen peroxide esekwe Ukucoca isisombululo ngexesha lobhubhane.

Ukuba usebenzisa amayeza wamehlo amiselweyo, cinga ngokugcina izinto ezongezelelekileyo, xa ufuna ukuzikhetha ngexesha lobhubhane.

Jonga ugqirha wamehlo ngenkathalo yesiqhelo kwaye ngakumbi imeko ezingxamisekileyo. Iofisi kagqirha kuya kufuneka uthathe amanyathelo okhuseleko ukugcina wena kunye nogqirha nikhuselekile.

Ngaba i-COVID-19 inokuwachaphazela nangayiphi na indlela amehlo akho?

I-COVID-19 inokuchaphazela amehlo akho. Nangona uphando lukwinqanaba lokuqala, lufumene iimpawu ezinxulumene neliso kwizigulane eziphuhlise i-COVID-19. Ukuxhaphaka kwezi mpawu kususela ngaphantsi kwepesenti enye ukuya kuthi ga kwipesenti ezingama-30 zezigulana.

Olunye uphawu lwamehlo olunokubakho lwe-COVID-19 liso elipinki (conjunctivitis) usulelo. Oku kunokwenzeka, kodwa kunqabile.

Uphando lubonisa ukuba malunga neepesenti ze-1.1 zabantu abane-COVID-19 bahlakulela iliso elipinki. Uninzi lwabantu abaphuhlisa iliso elipinki nge-COVID-19 banezinye iimpawu ezinzulu.

Biza ugqirha wakho ukuba unempawu zamehlo epinki, kubandakanya:

• amehlo apinki okanye abomvu
• uvakalelo olunobungqongqo emehlweni akho
• Ukulunywa kwamehlo
• ukujija okuqinileyo okanye okumanzi emehlweni akho, ngakumbi ubusuku bonke
• isixa esiphakamileyo ngokungaqhelekanga seenyembezi

Yintoni omele uyazi ngeempawu ze-COVID-19

Iimpawu ze-COVID-19 zinokubakho ukusuka kubumnene ukuya kubunzima. Uninzi lwabantu luneempawu ezinobulali ukuya kweziphakathi. Abanye abanazimpawu kwaphela.

Ezona mpawu zixhaphakileyo ze-COVID-19 zezi:

• ifiva
• ukukhohlela
• ukudinwa

Ezinye iimpawu zibandakanya:

• ukuqhawukelwa ngumphefumlo
• iintlungu zemisipha
• umqala obuhkungu
• Ukugodola
• ukuphulukana nokungcamla
• ukulahleka kwevumba
• intloko ebuhlungu
• iintlungu zesifuba

Abanye abantu banokuba nesicaphucaphu, ukugabha, okanye urhudo.

Ukuba unayo nayiphi na impawu ye-COVID-19, tsalela ugqirha wakho. Ngokuqinisekileyo ngekhe ufune unyango, kodwa kuya kufuneka uxelele ugqirha wakho malunga neempawu zakho. Kukwabalulekile ukuba ugqirha wakho azi ukuba ukhe wanxibelelana naye nabani na one-COVID-19.

Soloko ubiza u-911 ukuba unempawu zonyango olungxamisekileyo, kubandakanya:

• ingxaki yokuphefumla
• Intlungu yesifuba okanye uxinzelelo olungapheliyo
• ukudideka engqondweni
• ukubetha ngokukhawuleza
• unengxaki yokuhlala uphaphile
• imilebe eluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, ubuso, okanye iinzipho

Umgca wezantsi

Akukho bungqina bangoku bucacisa ukuba ukunxiba iilensi zonxibelelwano kwandisa umngcipheko wokufumana intsholongwane ebangela i-COVID-19.

Nangona kunjalo, ukuziqhelanisa nococeko kunye nokhathalelo lwamehlo olukhuselekileyo kubaluleke kakhulu. Oku kunokunceda ekunciphiseni umngcipheko wakho wokufumana i-SARS-CoV-2 kwaye ikukhusele nakulo naluphi na uhlobo losulelo lwamehlo.

Hlamba izandla zakho rhoqo, ngakumbi ngaphambi kokuchukumisa amehlo akho, kwaye qiniseka ukuba ugcina iilensi zakho zonxibelelwano zicocekile. Ukuba ufuna ukunakekelwa kwamehlo, unganqikazi ukubiza ugqirha wakho.
