萬一不幸染上新冠病毒，應該如何自處?
這是一個英國護士給大家的忠告，請仔細閱讀。
BE PREPARED
準備妥善
Everyone is telling you how to NOT catch #coronavirus, but NO ONE is saying what to do if you get it.
每個人都在討論如何避免新冠病毒，但是沒有人告訴你：萬一不幸染上新冠病毒，應該如何自處。
Thanks to this nurse in the UK for putting this guide together:
感謝這位英國護士整理下列指引：
Finally, some sensible advice. From a GP Nurse in the UK.
終於有一些明確的建議了。來自一個英國執業護士。
What I have seen a lot of are recommendations for how to try to avoid getting coronavirus in the first place:
我已經看過很多關於如何免感染新冠病毒的建議：
• good hand washing 勤洗手
• personal hygiene 個人衛生
• social distancing 社交距離
but what I have NOT seen a lot of is advice for what happens if you actually get it, which many of us will.
但是我沒看到太多關於感染新冠病毒後要如何自處的建議，而我們很多人會染疫的。
So as your friendly neighborhood Nurse let me make some suggestions:
所以作爲你家隔壁友善的護士，讓我給些建議：
If you get Covid-19
如果你感染了新冠肺炎
You basically just want to prepare as though you know you’re going to get a nasty respiratory bug, like bronchitis or pneumonia. You just have the foresight to know it might come your way!
基本上，只要做好心理準備，就好像知道自己將會患上令人討厭的呼吸道疾病一樣，例如支氣管炎或肺炎。只要想像你有可能會感染新冠肺炎。
Things to start doing now:
從現在開始要做的事情：
1) Get 20 minutes sun on your entire body (or as much as possible) every day. This will dramatically increase your Vitamin D levels, which improves your immune system.
每天花 20 分鐘曬太陽（或盡可能多曬曬身體各個部位）。這將會大大提高體内維他命 D 的含量， 藉以增強免疫系統。
2) If affordable take a good general supplement, plus 2000mg Vit C a day. Include ZINC, SELENIUM & GLUTATHIONE.
如果負擔得起，要多吃營養均衡的食物，外加每天攝取2000mg 維他命C，再配合鋅、硒和谷胱甘肽（註：一種強效的抗氧化劑）。
3) Scott’s Emulsion is a great general tonic (cod liver oi)
司考特乳白是一種很好的補品（魚肝油）
Things you should actually buy ahead of time:
一些應該事先準備好的物品：
4. Kleenex
面紙（或衛生紙）
Paracetamol
撲熱息痛藥片（德國市面稱為Paracetamol 500）
5) Cough medicine of choice (check the label and make sure you’re not doubling up on Paracetamol)
止咳藥（檢查標籤確保沒有撲熱息痛的成份，以免重複）
Zinc lozenges
鋅錠
6) Throat spray like Andolex or TCP
喉嚨噴劑，如Andolex或TCP（ Trichlorophenylmethyliodosalicyl）
7) Honey and lemon can work just as well!
蜂蜜和檸檬也有相同效果！
8) Vicks vaporub for your chest is also a great suggestion. Vicks vaporub
維克斯薄荷藥膏對舒緩胸部不適，是一種很好的藥物。
9) A humidifier would be a good thing to buy and use in your room when you go to bed overnight. (You can also just turn the shower on hot and sit in the bathroom breathing in the steam)
夜裡睡覺時，在房間裡使用加濕器，是一個不錯的法子。 （也可以打開淋浴的蓮蓬頭，然後坐在浴室裡呼吸熱蒸汽）
10) If you have a history of asthma and you have a prescription inhaler, make sure the one you have isn’t expired and refill it/get a new one if necessary.
如患哮喘毛病，而有哮喘噴劑，請確保所用的哮喘噴劑尚未過期，並重新加滿/如有必要，買個新的。
11) Meals This is also a good time to meal prep: make a big batch of your favorite soup to freeze and have on hand.
餐點部份這也是準備餐點的好時機：將一大鍋你喜歡的湯冷凍起來備用。
12) Hydrate Hydrate, hydrate! Stock up on whatever your favorite clear fluids are to drink, though tap water is fine you may appreciate some variety!
水份，水份，水份！多準備一些你喜歡的清澈食用水，儘管自來水也可以，但多樣化的食用水或許是個不錯的主意！
13) For symptom management and a fever over 38°c take Paracetamol rather than Ibuprofen.
如有病徵同時發燒超過 38°c，那就服用撲熱息痛藥片（Paracetamol），而不是布洛芬（Ibuprofen）。
14) Rest lots You should not be leaving your house! Even if you are feeling better you may will still be infectious for fourteen days and older people and those with existing health conditions should be avoided!
多休息 不應外出！即使病情好轉，14 天內仍具有傳染性；也要避免與老人家和健康狀況欠佳的人接觸！
15) Wear gloves and a mask to avoid contaminating others in your house.
戴手套和戴口罩，以免傳染給家中的其他成員。
16) Isolate in your bedroom if not living alone, ask friends and family to leave supplies outside to avoid contact.
若非獨居，請在臥室中自我隔離，讓親朋好友將物品留在外面，避免和他們接觸。
17) Sanitize your bed linen and clothes frequently by washing and clean your bathroom with recommended sanitizers.
經常以優良的消毒劑清洗床單和衣物。
18) You DO NOT NEED TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL unless you are having trouble breathing or your fever is very high (over 39°C) and unmanaged with meds.
除非呼吸困難或發高燒（超過 39°C）並且沒有其他醫療藥物，否則，不要去醫院！
19) 90% of healthy adult cases thus far have been managed at home with basic rest/hydration/over-the-counter meds.
迄今為止，已有 90％的成人病例成功地在家中接受基本的療養/補充水份/非處方藥物治療。
20) If you are worried or in distress or feel your symptoms are getting worse:
假如你擔心、緊張、或感覺自己的症狀越來越嚴重：
21) Pre-existing risks If you have a pre-existing lung condition (COPD, emphysema, lung cancer) or are on immunosuppressants, now is a great time to talk to your Doctor or specialist about what they would like you to do if you get sick.
預存風險 如果已經患有肺部疾病（慢性阻塞性肺病，肺氣腫，肺癌）或正在接受免疫抑製劑的治療，現在正是與家庭醫生或專科醫生討論的絕佳時機，要預先了解染病時的可能治療方案。
22) Children One major relief to you parents is that kids do VERY well with coronavirus, they usually bounce back in a few days (but they will still be infectious). Just use pediatric dosing.
兒童對父母而言，最大的安慰是：治療新冠病毒的方法對於兒童非常有效，他們通常會在幾天內復原（但仍具有感染風險）。同時只需使用兒童劑量即可。
23) Be calm and prepare rationally and everything will be fine. This is to inform us all that the pH for corona virus varies from 5.5 to 8.5.
保持鎮靜，合理應對，一切都會好轉。要告訴所有人，新冠病毒的pH值在 5.5 到 8.5 之間。
24) All we need to do, to beat corona virus, we need to take more of an alkaline foods that are above the above pH level of the Virus.
為了戰勝新冠病毒，我們一切所需要做的，就是大量攝取高於上述 pH 值的鹼性食品。
Some of which are:
