Air pollution has a much smaller particle size than viruses

Hence, they are urged to wear masks when doing activities outside the home to prevent getting sick.

"Medical masks can only filter viruses and other germs. Air pollution has a much smaller particle size than viruses, so it can still penetrate medical masks," she expressed, Friday (8/11).

Residents were also urged to prevent illness by maintaining good immunity through implementing a CERDIK (smart) and CERIA (cheerful) healthy lifestyle every day, as well as completing child immunizations immediately.

She explained that the prevention of complications and death can be done by means of early detection and treatment of ARI, pneumonia, bronchitis, COPD, asthma, and allergies.

"Especially in comorbid and high-risk groups, namely infants, toddlers, pregnant women, elderly, severe comorbidities, people with immunodeficiency or low immune status," she explained.

She added residents are faced with transitional conditions but also unpredictable weather due to extreme weather factors, so it is important to maintain good immunity.

"Due to the increased humidity in transition conditions, various germs such as viruses and bacteria easily enter the body. Also, during transition, immunity decreases due to stress, fatigue, lack of sleep, the effects of traffic jams, and so on," she continued.

Here is a CERDIK and CERIA healthy lifestyle every day:

CERDIK:

• Routine health checks: aged 15 and over can chexck up non-communicable disease for free at the nearest health center/posbindu once every 6-12 months

• Avoid cigarette smoke: active and passive smoking are equally dangerous

• Regular exercise: at least 6,000 steps per day/30 minutes per day, five times a week

• Balanced diet: eat vegetables, fruit 5 servings per day and reduce consumption of sugar, salt, fat. Maximum daily consumption for food and snacks is 4 tablespoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of salt, 5 tablespoons of fat, including oil

• Get enough rest at least 7 hours per day

• Manage stress well with meditation, recreation, worship, and so on

CERIA:

• Intelligent intellectual, emotional, and spiritual

• Empathy in communicating effectively

• Diligent worship according to religion and belief

• Interactions that are beneficial to life

• Maintain growth and development in the family and community
