In the autumn-winter period, the most widespread diseases are acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI), which are associated with a number of reasons. One of them is a decrease in immunity because of hypothermia of the body, a lack of vitamins, prolonged stay in closed and poorly ventilated rooms, where the concentration of viruses increases much faster, among others.

How to protect ourselves and our relatives from ARVI? The answer to this question is very simple – each of us must observe the rules of personal hygiene and be an example in this to our children. Given that seasonal diseases, in particular ARVI, are transmitted by airborne droplets, it is necessary to lubricate the nasal cavity with oxolinic ointment every morning.
