The Covid-19 pandemic is creating untold havoc across the globe and every 
country has been affected by this outbreak. In this context, we must be aware 
of the basic Coronavirus precautions and follow them without fail.
It is important to look at them as habits that we need to build for a lifetime 
rather than as a temporary measure.
 The hands have to be frequently cleaned making use of an alcohol-based 
sanitizer.
 We need to wash the hands with water and soap for a minimum of 20 
seconds to destroy any viruses that could be present. This aspect becomes 
more important soon after we use the restroom and just before having a 
meal. Likewise, we shouldn’t forget about washing the hands immediately 
after a cough or a sneeze.
It must be ensured that the minimum distance separating us from the people 
around is not less than six feet. When people speak/sneeze/cough, small 
droplets get ejected from the mouth/nose and these droplets might have the 
virus. And, we could end up inhaling these droplets, if we are closer than 6 feet 
to the person.
 It’s paramount that people stay away from crowded locations. It’s in the 
midst of crowds that it becomes difficult to adhere to the above point of 
physical distancing. Moreover, when there are huge numbers of people at a 
given place, there is also a possibility of the presence of a few infected 
persons among them.
 One can’t always stop the hands from coming into contact with surfaces, 
some of which could even be contaminated with the viruses. Therefore, 
make it a point that you don’t touch the mouth, eyes, and nose. Otherwise, 
there is a chance of the virus finding its way into the body.
 Whenever you have to sneeze/cough, you should cover the mouth/nose with 
the elbow, not the palms. If a tissue is used for this purpose, dispose of it 
away in a proper way, to not to risk the health of others.
 We have to regularly disinfect the surfaces that we touch, as a part of our 
daily life. Before disinfecting, the surfaces should be cleaned using a 
soap/detergent. Tables, switches, doorknobs, and faucets are examples of 
such surfaces.
 Even if there are milder forms of discomfort such as low-grade fever, 
intermittent cough, and headache, you need to isolate yourself until total 
recovery. Here, if going outdoors becomes unavoidable, you have to put on a 
mask and refrain from touching others.
 If you experience serious symptoms like breathlessness, high fever, and 
severe cough, take medical guidance immediately. Your local public health 
officials will have details about the nearby medical facilities handling the 
Coronavirus emergencies. Do reach out to them and take their assistance
 Last but not the least; we must keep ourselves informed about all the 
Coronavirus-related updates, especially the details specific to the area or 
zone of the city where we live.
The Coronavirus pandemic has been playing itself out for a long time.  There is 
no letup in the infections and they have grown with time. It is important to not 
allow fatigue to set in and we need to continue with good habits and good 
practices continuously.
