10.01.2022 You might have heard that #Coronavirus (COVID-19) affects the #respiratory system and you might have questions around what this means for you, or your child if ...they have #asthma? There is no specific data as yet to determine if asthmatics are at a higher risk of contracting the virus. However, a common trigger for worsening asthma symptoms for asthma flare-ups or asthma attacks are respiratory infections such as colds and viruses. COVID-19 is a respiratory virus. From the information gathered so far, people with a chronic medical condition like asthma may be at more risk of a serious Coronavirus infection compared to those without chronic medical conditions. The primary point is to do what you can, as usual, to avoid cold and flu; pay close attention to personal #hygiene, wash hands regularly, avoid close contact with people with symptoms and obtain a flu vaccination as soon as possible. When it comes to managing your asthma, here is a checklist you can follow https://asthma.org.au/blog/coronavirus-and-people/

We ask all families to do what they can to stay safe and closely follow the advice of emergency services. Currently bushfire smoke is impacting air quality across large parts of our state, and will continue to do so for some time. The best advice we can give is to keep your children inside wherever possible. Children with a heart or lung condition, including asthma may be more sensitive to the effects of breathing in smoke. If your child suffers from any of these conditions, medication should be kept close-by and taken as prescribed. Children with asthma should follow their asthma management plan and keep their reliever medication on hand. 000 should be called for any child experiencing difficulty breathing, wheezing or tightness in the chest. For further information about a specific fire or emergency incident, listen to your local emergency radio station for updates or visit www.emergency.vic.gov.au For the latest emergency management news, please visit www.emv.vic.gov.au/news
