In Pyongyang there is an outbreak of a new virus. More than a thousand of employees and security workers are on quarantine. The first symptoms appear 24 hours after getting infection – nausea, diarrhea and vomit.
The virus lives at any surface for some days or even weeks. And the virus carriers can infect others either during the peak of sickness or 48 hours after.
The disease spreads very quickly, especially indoors where there are a lot of people.
The virus bacteria are discharged from the organism in 2 weeks.
Doctors recommend following the rules of hygiene, washing hands frequently and disinfecting all the surfaces.
The managers of Winter Olympics hope the athletes will avoid the infection.
