CORONA VIRUS for Baby and Kids
(COVID-19) Information

Dear Mothers and Fathers,

As you all follow closely, the whole world is struggling with the coronavirus 19 scourge. It is time to be cool but careful. The good news is that coronavirus is relatively milder in our children. As of the season we are in, fever and cough symptoms in children can be caused by hundreds of other viruses or bacteria other than COVID 19.

​

Don't let a few days of fever, cold and cough worry you right away.

​

With symptoms of progressive fever, cough and respiratory distress, it is necessary to question whether there is contact with someone who has come from abroad or has come from abroad, or with a patient diagnosed with coronavirus, at least for now. If there is no such situation, I recommend that you be more cautious. However, if there is a persistent fever and respiratory distress, you should apply to a health institution.

The precautions to be taken are as you know;

  • Washing hands with soap and water for 20 seconds,

  • Using alcohol-based disinfectants,

  • Staying away from crowded environments,

  • Not shaking hands, not kissing,

  • Balanced nutrition and good sleep,

  • Using surgical masks for sick people,

  • ​

WHAT DO WE DO?

  • Surfaces are wiped down with 1% bleach every evening.

  • We have completely removed small toys.

  • Seating areas, furniture, door handles are disinfected with spray alcohol-based disinfectant.

  • We keep patient and healthy examination rooms separate.

  • We disinfect examination tools before each patient.

  • ​

I hope and believe that the anxiety will end soon and normal life will return.

​

I WISH YOU HEALTHY AND PEACEFUL DAYS..

 

Pediatrician. Hacı Çavuş GÖZÜM
