91心頭 Your Part to Stop the Spread
Dear 91心頭 Community, Welcome back!油We hope you enjoyed your 恢姻艶温一.油During this time, many of you油traveled, visited with friends and family, and油participated in油various celebrations, which may have油led油to exposure to a variety of viruses.油As we begin the quarter and come油together油in enclosed spaces,油it is easy for germs to spread. This time of油year,油we typically see an increase in油cases of flu, COVID,油common colds, and norovirus.油 While油medicines油may mitigate symptoms油for some of these油illnesses,油viruses like norovirus油do not respond to油medications and analgesics. Norovirus is a common illness that油spreads油easily油through油direct contact with infected individuals as well as through contaminated油food, water, and surfaces.油Symptoms of norovirus, sometimes referred to as the stomach flu or a stomach bug,油include油nausea, vomiting,油and油diarrhea油so staying hydrated is very important.油 Here油are some油prevention油methods油to help油stop the spread of viruses and reduce the chances of becoming ill.油
These simple steps can help you avoid getting sick and help prevent the spread of these油viruses. For students油with油special circumstances that might require medical attention (dehydration, fever, severe abdominal pain, ongoing symptoms)油please contact the Health and Counseling Center with any questions. You can油leave a油secure message via油油or call 303.871.2205. Please油contact油the Health and Counseling Center油by phone rather than coming in person if you are experiencing symptoms.油 Employees油requiring medical attention, please contact your healthcare provider. Remember, the best way油to help prevent油norovirus油and other communicable illnesses油is to practice proper hand washing and general cleanliness.油For more information, visit油.
