During the epidemic, we need to measure body temperature every day. Infrared forehead thermometer is still our better choice for prevention and control of the current epidemic and to measure body temperature. What about reducing errors?

    1. When measuring body temperature, point the instrument to the middle of the forehead and keep it vertical to avoid clothing or hair blocking, the distance is 5CM-15CM;

    2. Extra sweating will dissipate a lot of heat and lower the temperature of the forehead. When measuring, the sweat on the forehead should be dried in advance to prevent deviations in body temperature;

    3. When measuring, it is recommended to measure about 3 times, based on the average body temperature value. If the Forehead thermometer often has abnormal temperature, it is necessary to trace the value of the thermometer, otherwise it is recommended to stop it. You can go to the legal metrology technical institution for calibration.

    4. The daily cleaning of the Infrared forehead thermometer is also very important. You can blow the probe dust with the ear wash ball or head removal needle tube, and then use 75% medical alcohol to clean the inside of the probe, and then wipe the outer surface together before using it. 

The New Coronary Pneumonia Prevention and Control Guidelines also mention that many patients do not necessarily have fever symptoms, so a healthy lifestyle, frequent hand washing, frequent ventilation, and wearing masks when going out are the current correct prevention and control measures.

In addition, the temperature is getting higher and higher, and many people are tired and want to take it off. Academician Zhong Nanshan of China has already said that it is not time to take off the mask! At the moment, epidemic prevention and control have become regular. Fighting against viruses is a protracted battle. You have to be able to survive a good fight. You must persevere and persevere to defeat the virus.
