0:04
now obviously everybody is worried about
0:08
coronavirus and one of the main issues
0:10
is how do you tell the difference
0:12
between normal flu and coronavirus now
0:16
the thing is that CoV ID 19 is very
0:20
difficult to differentiate from normal
0:22
flu but there are certain slight subtle
0:25
differences with a normal flu it will
0:28
often begin with a headache sore throat
0:30
raising temperature but usually with
0:33
some degree of nasal congestion or mucus
0:36
feeling of tiredness and muscular ache
0:39
whereas the corona virus does seem to be
0:42
predominantly beginning with either a
0:44
sore throat and a cough and then a fever
0:47
and then very specifically shortness of
0:50
breath now the sore throat aspect may
0:53
last for up to two or three days before
0:55
any of the other symptoms begin so what
0:59
you want to think in terms of is even if
1:01
you think it may be normal flu the
1:04
guideline here really is to be rather
1:06
safe than sorry so remember that the
1:09
whole effective coronavirus is it's
1:12
highly contagious and very often people
1:14
may actually have the virus in their
1:17
system for anything up to 10 to 14 days
1:19
before they actually get symptoms which
1:22
is why if you have traveled to a
1:25
high-risk area and unfortunately Spain
1:28
isn't our fifth on that list the main
1:31
ones obviously China Italy Iran South
1:35
Korea and then Spain but if you have
1:38
been to a high-risk area or have been in
1:40
contact with somebody who's in the
1:42
high-risk area those ten to fourteen
1:45
days after you've been in contact with
1:47
that person is when you are asymptomatic
1:50
no symptoms but potentially contagious
1:53
now the main problem with the corona
1:57
virus is the way in which it can
1:59
potentially affect the lung and for
2:01
those of you who have a history of lung
2:04
disease respiratory problems heart
2:06
problems or type 2 diabetes that makes
2:10
it more important that you do self
2:12
isolate and make direct contact with the
2:16
local Health Authority
2:17
now the number in the Valencia region
2:19
for you to ring has changed now is now
2:23
nine hundred three hundred five five
2:27
five in the Valencia region nine hundred
2:31
three hundred five five five and what
2:35
they'll do is they'll talk you through a
2:37
series of questions and then if they
2:39
feel it necessary are the contact your
2:41
own doctor to come and see you all for a
2:45
response team to come out and see you in
2:48
the rest of Spain the number is zero six
2:51
one but remember that the majority of
2:55
you if you were to get coronavirus it
2:58
will just be like a very bad case of flu
3:01
we're not talking about man flu we're
3:04
talking about the kind of flu where you
3:05
literally can't lift your head up off
3:07
the pillow where you feel tired
3:09
exhausted muscular aches and pains fever
3:13
cough and specifically shortness of
3:17
breath but the main thing is as we've
3:19
said before don't panic
