2. Assume Game

It takes seven days before the symptoms of coronavirus to surface. Do not assume that who all might be containing it or otherwise.

3. Eat Outside

No matter how much your taste buds are craving food that is not homemade. It’s crucial to not order, eat or intake any outside food. You never know who is cooking the meal and how is it being cooked.

4. Outings

We are totally in favor of social distancing but that doesn't mean you can't step out of the house. You need to maintain distance from humans not pets, trees, birds or air.

5. Meeting Elderly

Covid-19 affects people with lower immunity the most. Avoid meeting anyone over 60 years of age or anyone infected, unless that's the only resort.

6. Health Facilities

With the virus taking over the town, going to a health facility for normal flu or problem isn't the ideal deal. Don't go to these places until you have all the symptoms that check for coronavirus.

7. Say Bye-Bye To Salons And Spas

No matter how much you miss this and love staying clean. It's time to take things in your own hands and maintain your hygiene. And in the highlight, you might just learn a couple of new things.

8. It's Not All About You

In the current scenario, one should let loose one’s narcissist approach. People who come in contact with you matter as much. The relevance here is to keep the virus from spreading around. One wrong move can sabotage lives.
