How to protect against Covid?
To prevent Covid-19, it is important to follow personal hygiene, vaccination and public health guidelines. As-
hygiene
Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water for at least 20 seconds after visiting a public place, touching anything, or coughing/sneezing. When hand washing is not available, use hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol.
Mask
Wear a mask properly, covering both the nose and mouth, especially in crowded places or indoor spaces where maintaining physical distance may be difficult. Be sure to follow local rules related to wearing masks.
Social Distancing
Maintain physical distance from people outside except household, especially in crowded places. Avoid direct contact with sick people and stay indoors if you feel unwell.
Take care of ventilation
Keep indoor air clean by opening windows and doors whenever possible. This reduces the amount of virus present in the air. This remedy provides relief even in case of respiratory problems.
stay updated
Stay updated on COVID-19 developments and follow the guidance of official health organizations. Beware of misinformation and rely on reliable sources for information.
travel carefully
Avoid non-essential travel, especially to areas where infection rates are high. Follow travel advice and isolation rules. By continuously adopting these prevention measures and encouraging others to do the same, we can stop the spread of Covid.
