Lupus patients are known to have a low immune system which is caused by the illness itself and medications they're taking in order to manage it. For anyone who were diagnosed with Lupus, they essentially need to learn and understand that they are predisposed (at great risk) to infection.
Recognizing our high susceptibility to other diseases and viruses, raising an awareness to prevent corona virus infection is highly prioritized. Below are some of the preventive ways to avoid this infection:
1. Avoid contact to people that are sick.
2. Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hand.
3. Wash your hand with soap for at least 20 seconds.
4. Use alcohol-based hand sanitizer when not near soap and water.
5. Clean and disinfect areas that are usually touched.
6. Wear the suggestive face mask.
7. Avoid travelling to affected places.
Be vigilant in taking precautions and take alot of care for yourself especially of you have chronic and autoimmune illness as it makes you more susceptible to this infection and may become more complicated due to the immune system activity.
