Investigation of clusters is a critical step in reducing transmission.
First, prepare and be ready.
Know the signs and symptoms and how to protect themselves and others.
Every health worker should be able to recognize this disease, provide care and know what to do with their patients.
Every health facility should be ready to cope with large numbers of patients, and ensure the safety of staff and patients.
Second, detect, protect and treat.
You can’t fight a virus if you don’t know where it is. Find, isolate, test and treat every case, to break the chains of transmission.
Every case we find and treat limits the expansion of the disease.
Third, reduce transmission.
Do not just let this fire burn.
Isolate the sick and quarantine their contacts.
In addition, measures that increase social distancing such as cancelling sporting events may help to reduce transmission.
These measures, of course, should be based on local context and risk assessment, and should be time-limited.
Even if you cannot stop transmission, you can slow it down and save lives.
And fourth, innovate and learn.
This is a new virus and a new situation.
We’re all learning, and we must all find new ways to prevent infections, save lives, and minimize impact.
Clean your hands regularly with an alcohol-based rub or soap and water
Cover your mouth and nose with your elbow if you cough or sneeze.
Stay home if you’re sick.
Avoid unnecessary travel and large social gatherings.
Comply with the advice of your local or national health authority.
Find and share reliable information.
