【HEALTHOGRAPHICS】清潔要全面
除了飛沫傳播，新型冠狀病毒還可以透過眼睛結膜感染而進入人體。市民可以佩戴眼鏡或平光鏡保護眼球以外，亦不妨多清潔隨身物品，如眼鏡、手機等。小編今天邀請到港大醫學院內科學系臨床教授孔繁毅爲大家解釋該如何為防疫工作做足準備。
問題1: 如何清潔眼鏡？
答：洗手時順道清潔眼鏡，以沾有梘液的雙手揉搓出泡沫，塗抹及輕洗眼鏡，再用水徹底沖乾淨。
問題2 : 如何清潔手機？
答：可把小量酒精搓手液噴在紙巾或眼鏡布上，清潔手機表面、熒幕保護貼和手機保護套，再用乾紙巾或乾布抹乾。
問題3: 其他物品如衣物、外套、手袋、鞋需要消毒嗎？
答:
◾ 外套：可以加清水的濕布簡單清潔；或將一塊濕布放在外套上，再用熨斗熨一熨，以高溫殺菌；亦可曬太陽殺菌。
◾衣物：若沒有長時間暴露於多菌空氣(如診所、醫院、幼稚園等) 的內搭衣服、沾染到細菌病毒的機會不大。建議每日清洗。
◾手袋：用濕布加清水簡單抹淨。
◾鞋：可於入屋前脫鞋，往鞋底噴70%消毒火酒；亦可把鞋拿入屋後以番梘及清水沖洗鞋底；或於門口放置浸過1:99稀釋漂白水的毛巾，進屋前踩上殺菌。

【HEALTHOGRAPHICS】Outbreak precautions: thorough disinfection
Apart from droplets transmission, the new coronavirus can infect us through the conjunctiva in our eyes as well. As means of protection, we recommend putting on glasses to protect your eyes, as well as cleaning your belongings frequently to minimise the chances of getting infected. Professor Ivan Hung, Clinical Professor & Chief, Division of Infectious Diseases of HKUMed, is here today to introduce to everyone proper methods of maintaining the hygiene of personal everyday items.
Q1: How should you clean your glasses?
A: Clean your glasses while washing your hands. Rub your hands with soap to create foam, and wash your glasses with it. Rinse the glasses with water afterwards.
Q2: How should you clean your phone?
A: Spray hand sanitiser on a piece of tissue or cleaning cloth and clean the surface of the phone, the case and also the screen protector. Wipe the phone dry with a piece of tissue or cloth.
Q3: Should we sanitise other clothing items, such as clothes, jackets, handbag and shoes?
A:
◾Jacket: Wipe with wet cloth/ Put a piece of wet cloth on the jacket and iron it with high temperature/ Dry it under the sun.
◾Clothes: If the base or inner layers of clothing under your outerwear are not exposed to environments with an abundance of germs (i.e. clinics, hospitals or kindergartens), the chances of contamination are quite low. Doing laundry daily is recommended.
◾Handbag: Clean it with a piece of wet cloth.
◾Shoes: Take off your shoes before stepping into your home, and spray rubbing alcohol on the sole/ Wash the sole with soap and water/ Place a towel soaked with 1:99 diluted bleach at the entrance and step on it to sanitise your shoes.
