According to the recent climatic conditions with widening temperature differences between day and night in most areas of the country, efforts are made to prevent viral respiratory diseases like influenza and maintain and enhance the stability of the anti-epidemic environment.

The state emergency epidemic prevention headquarters are concentrating all its resources on intensifying awareness-raising activities and education on anti-epidemic knowledge in every way lest the anti-epidemic atmosphere of the whole society be spoiled or deteriorated and on building the capability to isolate and suppress diseases that might develop due to seasonal factors as early as possible.

They are also paying close attention to firmly maintaining the normal operation of medical service systems including first-aid and telemedicine systems so that they can differentiate various diseases involving fever in time and administer well-timed treatment while keeping in constant contact with medical research and treatment institutions.

Projects are underway with a firm guarantee for implementation to introduce and generalize rational plans needed for the analysis and management of the nationwide anti-epidemic situation. Especially, practical measures are being taken to further improve scientific testing methods and systems which constitute the preceding process of the state anti-epidemic capacity building.

They are also making exact demands on relevant units to correctly carry out the phased plans of the state anti-epidemic capacity building such as the constant readiness for mobilization of anti-epidemic forces and material and technical means, sufficient storage of medicines and modernization of preventive and curative institutions.

The emergency anti-epidemic units and preventive and curative institutions at all levels are directing uninterrupted efforts to ensure the maximum stability of the anti-epidemic environment in line with specific conditions of their localities and units.

Working and living spaces are thoroughly sterilized to exterminate pathogenic microorganisms like flu virus and careful preparations are done to conduct the anti-epidemic work properly during the coming winter.

While conducting information activities with knowledge and data helpful to health management in winter, they are intensifying screening and check-up activities so as to detect all patients with fever from various reasons like bronchitis and tonsillitis and take rapid treatment measures.
