- 13. Animal-to-human transmission prevention: Do not consume date palm sap as the chances of it being contaminated are very high. Fruit bats are very likely to visit the date palm trees and lick the sap. Domestic animals can also be the carriers of NiV as fruit bats often drop partially eaten fruits which can be consumed by them. Try to keep them indoors and feed them yourself or if there's a chance of them being infected, keep distance from them and get them treated. Don't climb trees where bats may have left their saliva or secretions. Prevention
- 14. Human-to-human transmission prevention: ◈Epidemiological surveys have yet suggested that human-to-human transmission of NiV is not very common. However, it is possible to get infected with NiV if one gets in touch with the secretions of infected patients. ◈The primary carriers of NiV in humans are the respiratory secretions. If you are near anyone who has the infection and have the chance to breathe in their out- breath, you can get infected too. The risk gets very high is the patient has respiratory symptoms, such as coughing and sneezing. Because of the same reason, never share food, bed or be very close to a sneezing or coughing NiV patient. At any cost, one should not come in contact with the saliva of an infected person..
