URTI (Upper Respiratory Tract Infection) affects the nose, throat, or upper airways—often leading to symptoms like cough, sore throat, and runny nose.
During the monsoon, increased humidity and sudden temperature changes can weaken immunity and create ideal conditions for viruses and bacteria to spread—making URTI more common.
How to Protect Yourself and Others:
- Wash your hands frequently with soap and water
- Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or your elbow when coughing or sneezing
- Wear a mask, especially in crowded or polluted areas
- Avoid close contact with people who are unwell
- Eat healthy, stay hydrated, and get enough sleep
- Get vaccinated if recommended by your doctor
- If feeling sick, stay home to prevent spreading the infection
Why this matters: URTI may seem mild at first, but if ignored, it can lead to complications—especially in children, the elderly, or those with low immunity.
