(Question) Is the probability of transmission 2% if there are only 2 flu patients in the company?

Are there only 2 flu patients in the company, and what is the probability of transmission?

 

They are the CEO and the director couple.

You said you've been feeling unwell since last week.

Both of these two people caught the flu...

 

Both of you are not the type to stay at home.

 

Yesterday, I heard you went home early to rest.

Today, both of you are at the company.

 

I'm feeling so anxious inside the office about this.

 

Using the restroom like in an office.

Both of you keep coming and talking to me since this morning, and it's really making me feel uncomfortable.

 

I am wearing a mask in the previous office.

However, I am using it because it might be due to the office heater being too thick.

It's also difficult to breathe, so I'm using a thin one, but this is somewhat related to the flu.

It seems questionable whether it is okay from an infection standpoint.

 

 

 

Both of you have a sore throat, and they said it's not type A flu.

I caught a cold in my throat, and I was told to watch out for symptoms like coughing and fever.

 

Whenever I come home and have a sore throat, I have been periodically checking my temperature with a thermometer.

The week is passing by difficultly.

 

These days, I see on TV that during the COVID-19 pandemic, people always focused on their immunity.

You're paying attention, and I hear you've also made mask-wearing a regular part of your life.

So, it is said that the number of cold patients has actually decreased significantly.

These days, I think I almost pass by these kinds of lifestyle habits unconsciously.

 

I think it's time to make mask-wearing a daily habit again.

You should wash your hands thoroughly and also use hand sanitizer frequently.

You also took out the cleaning agent at home again.

 

 

The flu we know is

 

It is a contagious respiratory disease caused by the influenza virus.

 

It can be transmitted between people through coughing or sneezing, or by touching contaminated droplets and then touching the eyes, nose, or mouth without washing hands. When infected with the flu, symptoms such as high fever above 38°C, headache, muscle aches, runny nose, sore throat, and cough appear after an incubation period of 1 to 4 days, and usually last for more than ten days.

 

These days, especially, the increase in flu patients is said to be because people pay less attention to immune system management than before.

 

 

Tips for recovering from the flu!!!

 

Adequate hydration: It is recommended to drink warm water or broth-based dishes.

 

Rest: The more tired the body, the slower the recovery process.

 

Maintaining humidity: It is good to use a humidifier or hang a wet towel to prevent indoor air from becoming dry.
