Covid-19 Information
At the Winslow Indian Health Care Center, we want to help you and your family stay healthy during the Coronavirus outbreak of 2020. Below are videos about the Coronavirus disease 2019 and prevention tips both in Dine Bizaad (Navajo Language) and English.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has been closely monitoring an outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a new virus strain of coronavirus (CoV) named "Novel Coronavirus" or "nCoV" first identified in Wuhan, China. Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that cause illness ranging from the common cold to more severe disease such as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV).
So, what is the coronavirus disease 2019? It is a disease caused by novel coronavirus (nCoV) and it has not been previously identified in humans. Coronavirus disease 2019 (abbreviated "COVID-19") is a respiratory illness that can spread from person to person. The virus is thought to spread mainly between people who are in close contact with one another (within about 6 feet) through respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes. It also may be possible that a person can get COVID-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes, but this is not thought to be the main way the virus spreads. To Learn more about the spread of coronaviruses go to the CDC link at cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/about/transmission.html.
Currently this is no treatment or vaccine to protect against COVID-19. The best way to prevent infection is to take everyday preventive actions, like avoiding close contact with people who are sick and washing your hands often.
