  • So I've been doing I g live Siri's That is all about wellness in self care.

  • And I've been just so amazing inspired But the amazing community that we have built and how many of you are coming on a journey with me to really learn how to take care of ourselves during this kinds.

  • And also in general, I do share all the sessions on HGTV on Instagram.

  • But I also really wanted to share with my YouTube family and community.

  • So I hope you enjoy this.

  • Okay, go.

  • I feel so savvy right now.

  • We are glad we practice too, though.

  • No, it's wonderful.

  • How are you?

  • I'm good.

  • Now, I, you know, just register my day.

  • Thanks for having me.

  • I'm so excited.

  • Thank you for doing this.

  • I know you're crazy.

  • Busy.

  • So first of all, I kind of introduced you, but I don't know if I if I said the proper stuff, So can you maybe.

  • Yes, of course.

  • So my name is Amira or Doctor A.

  • I'm a pediatrician.

  • So I trained in Toronto, Canada.

  • And then I said, specialized.

  • An allergy and immunology.

  • So looking at how allergy affects your body and the immune system, so I'm happy to answer as many questions as I can.

  • I'm not an infectious disease specialist, but I mean, of course, I'm getting all the information about Cove it as other physicians are.

  • So I'll try my best.

  • So fingers crossed, I could help them answer these questions.

  • Does it look like I'm not wearing pants?

  • Yeah, it's got a good look.

  • Then you go.

  • Okay, so I work.

  • Work.

  • I have, Ah, I have the questions that I collected that I see like, were the most asked questions.

  • So let's just get into it.

  • The 1st 1 is covert 19 and surfaces.

  • I got a lot of question if people should disinfect their groceries or leave them outside for three days or things like that.

  • So is that kind of like something we should keep in mind and follow when it comes to surfaces?

  • Yeah, so you know, they have done some studies looking at Cove It 19 and surfaces, and they have seen that the virus can stay on different service is depending on texture, um, between a couple hours and a couple of days, so that's pretty scary when you think about you know all the surfaces you touch, which is why I think it's important.

  • The one thing you can control is yourself.

  • So you know I can touch a 1,000,000 surfaces when I go out to work.

  • But I know I can wash my hands right after, so I know I can control that surface in terms of at home.

  • You know they do state So, for example, for me I wear scrubs to work, and then I switched my clothes outside.

  • But that's because I'm consistently in contact with patients.

  • I think like general society.

  • I think the most important thing is what you're touching, because you're probably not intimately, you know, examining people's hearts and lungs.

  • Um, but I do feel like washing your hands and and also common surfaces.

  • So, for example, in your bathroom, like the door knobs you know, once a day or there's no like clear rule how often you're supposed to do it.

  • But you're supposed to try and cover, you know, door knobs, different tabletops, things that are commonly touched.

  • Just disinfecting them on a regular basis is really important, especially if there's someone who's sick at home.

  • Then you have to be doing it much more regularly and trying to keeping them at their own space.

  • So So, Yeah, it does live for a couple of days up to a couple of days on certain surfaces.

  • Okay, so Gary has this thing that we follow.

  • I told you yesterday he went outside.

  • He needed to do, like, some errands on his own.

  • And he put his, um, he put his robe in the garage, and then when he came back, he, like, literally stripped down and then put it all in the washing machine and just put his like roban and went to take a shower.

  • So that is extreme.

  • But I feel like I mean, it's better safe than story.

  • And also, when we get packages, he makes us like we're gloves when we handling them and not bring it into the house and open it outside and then just, like, leave it there.

  • So right now, we have kind of, ah, hold forth outside.

  • But I feel like that makes sense, right?

  • Yeah.

  • You know what?

  • I feel like we should have Gary and on here.

  • He's probably more clean, and I am, But I don't Yes, agree, because I'm not gonna lie like I mean, there's no clear cut.

  • They do say takeout food is safe, like it doesn't survive on in food.

  • Um, especially if you warm it up after.

  • But I agree.

  • Especially now, with most of my things coming.

  • Like I got my weight.

  • I have to answer that.

  • Home and packages.

  • I actually do wear gloves.

  • Um, and it doesn't have to be like medical grade gloves, like, I just feel like my winter gloves.

  • I guess we're in Canada.

  • But I opened it, and then I take the boxes and I put them outside right away.

  • And then I wash my hands, wash my hands, you know?

  • So I don't think that he is being extreme in one sense, but I agree, like being safer starve.

  • It's not that hard for you to keep the box of those side.

  • Why not?

  • Because you don't know what what?

  • The person who touched it before he had the cost on it or whatever.

  • Okay, so I feel like it's a lot of common sense.

  • Okay, the second question that I got is if you get over 19 um, does it stay in your system forever and can you get it again after having it?

  • Yes, so that's a really good question.

  • So Cove in 19 as you guys, probably or no, it's a type of Corona virus.

  • Now people have seen with certain viruses.

  • If you're exposed, like when you get a vaccine, for example, that's a little bit of virus that you're exposed to.

  • And depending on how strong the immune response is, will depend on how long does that stay on?

  • So as you know, some vaccines, we get boosters some we don't.

  • And that's because it depends on how strong of ah memory your immune system creates from that.

  • So fork over 19.

  • It's actually not super clear right now because it's so new.

  • Were still people are getting it for the first time.

  • Is the immune response strong enoughto laugh a year, two years, five years?

  • It's not super clear.

  • So right now, if the I can't really 100% answer, but we will know soon, and also it depends if the virus mutates or not.

  • So there's a lot of factors, but as of now, if you've gotten it and you're asymptomatic, people are like, OK, you've gotten it, but I don't think that 100% says like you won't get it again.

  • It really just depends.

  • Didn't mutate.

  • How strong of a new system I mean, is it?

  • It's basically kind of like a flu situation right now.

  • Even if you get like a flu shot, you still you may get it.

  • Depends, I guess, on your immune system.

  • Yeah.

  • And you get the flu shot every year, right?

  • Yeah.

  • That's the kind of stuff we're trying to figure out right now.

  • Like, is this the shot you get?

  • One?

  • Yeah.

  • Yeah, that makes sense.

  • Um, so there are people.

  • There's one person actually that send me a GM and said, Well, I just came back from travel and I want to make sure that I isolate myself.

  • But how do I do it when you know I have a live in partner in the house?

  • Yeah, that's a really common scenario that we're facing and especially I mean, living downtown Toronto were in, like, one bedroom condos.

  • So when the what the Canadian like infectious disease, people have said, is as best as you can you try to give them their own room and bathroom.

  • That's kind of the priority.

  • Of course, some people have one bedroom, one bathroom, so it's not always ideal.

  • So in that case, they do actually state as much as you can give that person six feet of space and circumference around them and try to isolate them in that space.

  • Whether that means that they're like on the couch or you're not sleeping with other men is something what we're trying to encourage because, you know, sleeping beside each other.

  • Of course you're gonna get contaminated.

  • Or like he might call for.

  • She might cough on you.

  • So that's kind of the regulation.

  • I now try to give them their own bedroom and bathroom.

  • The people's try not to use their bathroom, and if you do have to use a rock and disinfect every time they go to the bathroom, all the door knobs, all the like faucets, etcetera on dhe.

  • Try to sleep in different bedrooms, if possible, because it does, as you know, it is in the air, so you don't wantto spread that it isn't the air.

  • How long was it to stay in the air?

  • That's a great question.

  • So there's been this huge debate, even in the medical world like Is this something that we consider drop late or is airborne droplet meaning like you coffin on the floor?

  • It's on the surface, so we only need a surgical mask.

  • Airborne means you needed and 95.

  • As you know, these air sold out like everywhere, people buying them for $1000 each.

  • Now what we think right now is this moment, mainly droplet, which means that it's not in the air.

  • It's mainly on surfaces, however, if they're certain circumstances, for example, of somebody is having their their breathing, like in the hospital settings where the air Congar a pin the up in the like atmosphere than it can become.

  • We call it aerosolized.

  • So mainly droplet for like general world society.

  • Washing your hands, cover your face and your eyes.

  • But I think in certain circumstances that can become airborne.

  • I did see a lot of post and just information out there where doctors and the medical, um, you know, system is asking people not to like horde gloves and masks because you guys needed more than us.

  • So I mean, there are things that we can use that do you feel it and we do and, you know, even in our hospital, like we are only allowed to use to mess, it's a day.

  • So that's really weird for us.

  • Because, of course, like we're consistently exposed to sick people.

  • People come to the hospital when they're sick.

  • They're coughing, they have fever.

  • They have other illnesses, right?

  • There's still other illnesses out there that are complete TBI, right?

  • Like tuberculosis, like people forget that these illnesses still exist that we need masks for.

  • And what's happening is because of the shortage.

  • Physicians are putting the end.

  • Nurses and all other health care providers are putting themselves at risk to a to mask minimum because we literally don't have enough.

  • So this is a really, really problem.

  • And in Canada we aren't even at the peak of you know where this might go like Italy, and we're already seeing such shortages.

  • So I really do think this is a major problem, and I really hope that there's sometimes a solution and people stop hoarding.

  • Uh, the math.

  • Okay, that's good to know.

  • Um, so if I If if there's someone that is at risk, how long do she should they self isolate?

  • Yes, 0 14 We always say 14 days if you're at risk.

  • So if you know you traveled to your contact, However, let's just say you get symptoms.

  • A lot of people like.

  • Okay, well, I got symptoms, and, you know, I have I've been insulated 14 days.

  • I'm good, but you actually have to have no symptoms for at least two days to actually a world of good point.

  • Yeah, so there's a difference between that.

  • Right?

  • So, making sure people realize that.

  • And, um what about so how the doctors decide?

  • No, that's a good question.

  • So what are the main symptoms people should look for and then to decide also?

  • Okay, I want to go and see if I can get tested.

  • Water does symptoms.

  • Yes.

  • So, you know, it kind of depends, but I am a pediatrician, but, you know, so the kids present differently than adults.

  • But generally it's similar to how the fluid like you have cough fever.

  • Very like aches and pains.

  • Feeling quite unwell?

  • Um, And then one of the key things or shortness of breath, like you feel you can't catch your breath.

  • Some people are presenting with, like, headache, diarrhea as well, especially kids present more with like G I or like got symptoms.

  • I think that, you know, protesting There's no like a blanket rule.

  • They do say people are at risk.

  • So if you have heart disease, diabetes, cancer, any lung issues like asthma, for example, then you should your threshold strip it test to get tested.

  • You should go in more quickly, right?

  • Rather than we see and try and suffer S O.

  • I think the main thing is each on like Ontario, for example in each province.

  • And I'm sure around the world they have a website.

  • You go to their self assessment tools, literally.

  • Just Google Self Assessment, Kobe, Ontario, for example.

  • And you just take the test and he'll tell you you should be tested.

  • This is the number to call.

  • Do not show up in emerge.

  • That's like the biggest thing.

  • Like a lot of just showing up in the emerge like I want to be tested for Cove it.

  • That's not how it works.

  • It just puts more strain on the system, which results in more of a mess.

  • That's good to know.

So I've been doing I g live Siri's That is all about wellness in self care.
