From December last year onwards, there have been several reports of an outbreak of pneumonia related to the Coronavirus from Wuhan city in the Hubei Province of the People`s Republic of China.
Taking into account that the common cold and influenza appear frequently during the current season, it is important to have general counter measures to prevent infection such as proper etiquette when coughing and properly washing your hands.
In the case of those entering or returning to the country from abroad who display symptoms of coughing and a fever, as well as any relatives or colleagues who develop the same symptoms, please make sure to contact the nearest hospital or clinic in advance to be informed of the medical examination required. You should also wear a mask when you go for your examination.
