Global Scare of COVID 19 !
Greetings to all the memebers of WA ! I am a medical practitioner in one of the province here in the philippines and my concern is about the news that COVID 19 is spreading slowly worldwide and people all over the world is alerted through tons of informations from newspapers and any forms of social medias.The bulk of information feeds to the recipient will make others happy and comfortable but to some it will create panic and havoc,especially to the person and relatives affected by the disease. Just less than 48 hours ago 2 suspects infected by COVID 19 OFW (overseas filipino worker) escaped from a quarantined area in one of the infected countries in asia. Statistics showed that Most of the patients infected with COVID 19 died, had other commorbid disease/s and in extreme of ages ( older and younger age group),thus they die not of direct COVID 19 infection but succumb tos its complication due to other diseases such as liver failure,heart failure,kidney failure,uncontrolled diabetes and immune disease etc. My community is not known to harbor the virus yet but the 2 infected suspects is now in our place. My personal opinion is, we should stay vigilant and stay healthy always by practicing and following health preventive measures,since most of the microorganisms that infects humans cannot cause disease if the host immune system is in good shape and condition then it is a " MUST " that we, as much as possible be in good shape inorder for us to fight and " RESIST " the infection.
Effective Simple preventive Steps:
1.) Wear effective face mask if " YOU ARE SICK ".
2.) daily and Adequate physical exercise to boost up your immune sysytem.
3.) Eat healthy foods and diets.
4.) Consume " GOOD PROBIOTICS "to boost and maintain a healthy gut microbiome because a healthy gut with a healthy microbime can boost or make our immune system stronger against disease.
Note: More is coming if you are interested ,then I'm just a click away...have a blessed day ahead !!! bye!

In reading the beginning of your post, I am watching T.V. and listening to so much information regarding this now PANDEMIC.
I am listening to everything, and while I am not an overreacting person, this is some SCARY Sh...!
To think that this began in CHINA, the first part of February, so that is the time frame they state. There must have been more cases prior to that, but they alerted people to the situation in Feb.
Yes, we must be diligent in our hygiene, and watch what we touch, and stay away from people who have flu like symptoms, but the truth is, we here in the USA, are not prepared even for a bit for what will become a wave to come.
To hear that an individual literally walked out of a quarantine area is just beyond. This person now is not only carrying the virus, but he or she is now amongst people who they might infect.
I am 62, and never in my wildest dreams would I thought we would be dealing with something so horrible, that is affecting literally people around the world!
I hope and pray that our happy community here, is fine, and your families, and pray that they get a handle on this very soon.
Blessings to you all.

Yes xoxo its scary but its preventable...we just have to follow some preventive tips in maintaining good hygiene and sanitation and apply it personally.
Hi Laertes,
Thanks for your information. I agree we need to keep healthy and have a good immune system. In my case, I have to look at food and probiotics to improve it.
The information so far is that the death rate of Covid 19 is a little higher than the common flu. Is this also your understanding?
Thanks again and best regards,
Javier
yes Javier as of the present time... but common flu and other respiratory virus before caused more death during the dark ages,candidly speaking...as of the moment ,we should not be scared of COVID 19 because bacterial pneumonia,malaria and TB still caused more morbidity and mortality to humans globally. Good morning Javier!
Thank you for the info, my mother is a register nurse and she warn me daily about the oncoming virus, so I am very aware and doing what ever it takes to stay alive and healthy. thanks again
