Hello people, how are we keeping? For those working from home, I hope we have been productive? We all miss going out but at this moment, staying alive is more important.
A Lot of myths are going around about how to protect yourself against coronavirus and this, in fact, is worrisome.
So in a bid to help, we will be discussing basic ways to protect yourself against coronavirus.
- Wash your hands regularly- It is very important to frequently and thoroughly wash your hands with soap or clean them with alcohol-based hand sanitiser.
- Maintain social distancing- If you have to go out at all, make sure you maintain a distance of at least 1 meter between you and the next person so that when they cough or sneeze, the droplets from their nose /mouth won’t get to you.
- Don’t touch- yes, totally avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth. This is because our hands touch a lot of things including surfaces shared by different people and once our hands get contaminated, it’s easy to transfer it into our body through those parts.
- Also remember to maintain good respiratory hygiene- cover your mouth when you cough, sneeze into your elbow.
While we do all the above, we must understand that it is important we obey government rules and stay at home as instructed.
We will beat this soon, pls stay safe.
