10 ways to reduce the chances of your family getting coronavirus.

The pandemic has created the world to think again on the issues it had suppressed a long time back. COVID not only costed lives but also made people realise the importance of health. Everyone was seen exercising, taking good health measures as described by WHO, were having good sleep hours, were seen spending time with their family, were connecting over long calls to know how everyone was feeling, and a lot more during the times of lockdown. Though the vaccine has arrived still the world hasn’t eradicated COVID. This blog will help you protect your family by reducing the chances of getting coronavirus.

Here are the ways that can reduce the chances of getting affected by Coronavirus

As an individual, everyone is concerned as to how they can manage to save their families and the loved ones from the pandemic. Here are the 10 ways you can introduce to reduce the chances of getting coronavirus.

I. Make your family members wash their hands frequently and in-between activities like cooking or eating. Use soap and water with the stated hand washing routine by WHO for 20 seconds. This will help to remove any germs or viruses making the person free of infection.

Also, if they’re out make them use or instruct them to use hand sanitizer frequently with the same hand movements while washing with soap and water.

II. Cover their faces with the prescribed mask or any cloth with several layers, before they step out. The droplets of sneezing remain in the air for a particular time and it is more likely they can enter into the nostril. Therefore, don’t let them step out without any covering on their faces. Though, some say coronavirus can penetrate from the skin but this hasn’t been supported enough. The doctors say to cover yourself fully to avoid any cough and cold symptoms. It would be better if you cover yourself as the weather is changing and people can have chances of cold or cough.

III. Avoid public transports and make them avail the digital facility to finish their necessary works. Social distancing is the need of the hour. There should be three- or six-feet minimum distance between them and other people.

IV. Don’t let them touch their nose, eyes, and mouth. It can cause a virus to enter through any surface you feel can have.

V. Get your home surfaces cleaned now and then. The surfaces like the door handle, windows, or the surface you feel your family uses most, must be cleaned and sanitized regularly to avoid any bacteria or infection staying at the object.

VI. Sharing can be dangerous. Gulping a food item from your child’s plate or snatching away your food can be dangerous. Tell them to stay away from sharing things, which will even prevent them from sharing their stuff outside even if you aren’t with them. Make them realize why they shouldn’t share at this moment and also inform them that you’ll let them share in the future which won’t make them think sharing is bad.

VII. Don’t ignore the symptoms if you feel anyone is showing it at your place. Immediately, register them for consultation, to avoid any major issues arising.

VIII. Don’t let them travel unnecessarily like attending marriages or any get-togethers because the pandemic hasn’t been eradicated yet. Stay cautious and stay healthy.

IX. Have all their necessary needs packed and reserved at their place of living to avoid their traveling to markets. Also, have all the necessary medicines stocked up so that they can last long. Have extra precautions for the family members who are above 60 years, have diabetes or heart or lung diseases, and are consuming immune suppression drugs.

X. Get them properly vaccinated. This is the saviour of time and can make you free of the worries of having your family members any symptoms. You can get them vaccinated as and when it is available around you. And, once they’re fully vaccinated, you feel calm of any infections clinging to them.

Follow the top 10 things mentioned above and feel relaxed about the continuous worry that is traumatizing you now and then.
