Based on the current statistics, the coronavirus has currently infected more than 2 million people and has caused the death of 126,757 people around the globe already. With how the situation of this pandemic is getting worse, there is no doubt why a lot of people are covered in fear, despair, and depression nowadays.
But experts say embracing these negative emotions won't help improve anyone's situation even just for a bit. Instead, be alert, always ready and follow the guidelines experts have enumerated for people to follow instead. Here are some of those.
FREQUENT SANITIZING OF HANDS USING SOAP AND WATER
The best way to keep yourself protected amid the coronavirus is through frequent and proper handwashing. Though using alcohol can help a bit, washing off the virus with soap and water is still the cheapest but most effective way to sanitize your hands, as reported by UNICEF.
You can do that by wetting your hands with clean and flowing water first. Then, apply soap to your wet hands. Third, scrub the soap to the back of your hands, in between fingers, under nails, and palms for at least 20 seconds. After doing so, rinse it off with clean and running water and dry hands with clean cloth or towel.
EAT HEALTHY FOODS AND TAKE SUPPLEMENTS
Another important thing to consider during the current pandemic is to keep your immunity and health at its peak. You can do that by eating healthy and fresh foods like those green leafy vegetables such as spinach, kale, and lettuce, and other veggies and fruits like almonds, citrus fruits, red bell peppers, garlic, ginger, and broccoli. If you are unable to eat sufficient balance meal, taking supplements can also help you the same.
STORE FOODS ENOUGH FOR LONGER TIME
It is better to stay at home as much as possible. So keeping food enough to supply your family's needs for a longer period is one of the best things you should do nowadays. Doing so would not require you to go out of your house that much anymore. Just make sure to properly store your food and goods in proper places and in the best way possible, as shared by Better Health.
There are still other things you should make sure to do this pandemic. These are spending more time with your loved ones, choosing to rely only on legit news sources, having enough rest and sleep, and making sure to be hydrated always.
