Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)
WHAT IS CORONA VIRUS OR COVID-19?
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a new virus.
The disease causes respiratory illness (like the flu) with symptoms such as a cough, fever, and in more severe cases, difficulty breathing. You can protect yourself by washing your hands frequently, avoiding touching your face, and avoiding close contact (1 meter or 3 feet) with people who are unwell.
HOW IT IS SPREAD?
Coronavirus disease spreads primarily through contact with an infected person when they cough or sneeze. It also spreads when a person touches a surface or object that has the virus on it, then touches their eyes, nose, or mouth.
HOW CAN WE HELP OTHERS DURING CORONA VIRUS?
1. First option to help others is to help it not spread continuously so the virus would stop passing from one person to another. There is one basic and necessary step: PROPER BASIC SANITATION
Wash your hands regularly for 20 seconds, with soap and water or alcohol-based hand rub
Cover your nose and mouth with a disposable tissue or flexed elbow when you cough or sneeze
Avoid close contact (1 meter or 3 feet) with people who are unwell
Stay home and self-isolate from others in the household if you feel unwell
Don't
- Touch your eyes, nose, or mouth if your hands are not clean
One must first practice such in order for us to keep minimize the number of affected individuals. We must learn to acknowledge that not every one have the ability to overcome such diseases so let us prevent from passing it to one another.
2. Another way to help during this pandemic is to help educate one another, you maybe reading this now but some may not be even have the means to read or watch the television. So go ahead, tell others what you must do in order to help us decrease the number of positive patients of the virus. Use any means of communication such as social media in which you can share without compromising your own health.
3. Use the social media to help, it maybe in kind or in cash, various people are posting and are in need of help and are asking for additional help. You can easily find them online through your social media accounts, and can easily donate and help others. With such high technology, we can possibly help one another without sacrificing one's health.
Many social media influencers have gathered donations to help the people who are greatly affected by the pandemic. We do encourage to help the frontliners who shared a fight with us. Medical help such as test kits, masks, alcohol, food and other supplies are in great need for this situation.
4. You can also help not just in the social media, but also in your hometown, your neighbors who are near you. Donate and share if you have the means. Just follow the basic precautionary measure while doing such help in order to fight the spread of the virus.
