COVID-19 - It' something you have to fear

Dear Friends,

Coronavirus - COVID-19

It's something you have to fear. Please take responsibility. Not for you, but for your loved ones. Bcoz you don't get affected (die) but people around you can. 

Yes you need to buy many things for the home, yes you need to go home, yes you need to meet your friends, but it's not the right time. Stay where ever you are, stay in, stay safe!

Here are a few data which you need to read first.

WHO has been updating info about Corona on their website. You can access it here - WHO

So, is this the end of the world? No, it's not like that the world is going to end. But if you are not following what the government is saying you then that will happen – The world will end!

Well, this is not about who is ruling and what they're saying but whatever they're saying it's for the health of every individual. Because the disease you're concerned with is not something that can be stopped with a pill. It’s spreading like a forest fire right now and the only way to stop is to break the chain.  

As this day, if you are reading this, then, definitely you should have learned about what is the chain and how to break it. The only option to break the chain is to stay away from all the people. Stay inside home.

Personally, I state a few precautions to follow which is not said to general people who are going out now

1. So, if you are going out to buy groceries or important things and you are returning, stop at your door. Don't touch anything in your home. Directly go and have a bath. It is also better to wash all your clothes.
2. Don't go for panic shopping to buy things and stock it up for weeks. If you have food for the next seven days that's enough. You can get through this.
3. Always avoid the crowd. If you are going out anywhere to buy something and found a large crowd on the stores just step back and give distance between each. if there is no one to guide other people please take the lead and guide them to practice distancing.
4. Don't spend too much on a mask. Just have a kerchief to cover your face. That is to protect others from you. And a kerchief can do the same.
5. Yes, you can also follow our traditional practice of spraying turmeric water in front of your house as that will act as an antiseptic. 
6. Wash hands frequently. You don't have sanitizers. That's fine. Use salt water and washing soap to wash your hands. That will do the required.
7. And please watch news frequently. At least 2 times a day. That will help you!

 

According to experts, we are at the early stage as of now and if you're not controlling it right now then it will become very difficult to control this disease. I think you have never witnessed this kind of curfew anytime in your life in your nation. So if they're stressing out this much then think of how tough the situation is.

Above all - Please educate the people around you! That's very important right now.
