As we are all aware that India is probably going to enter Stage 3 i.e Community Transmission. Right now we are in Stage 2 of Coronavirus Outbreak i.e Local Transmission which is why we don’t see a surge in the number of cases every day as countries like Italy, USA and Spain are facing and countries like Iran and China have already faced. We might not be having a healthcare system as good as the developed countries but what we do have is the will of the nation to not let a virus win.
That is why we request all of you to please follow the under mentioned Proactive Measures for the next 15-20 days to prevent ourselves, our families, our friends and our Nation completely from the impact of Coronavirus.
- Make sure to wash the milk bags immediately when you enter your home & wash your hands while you are at it. (Also Read: Coronavirus Pandemic: How To Protect Yourself Better At Home? )
- Please consider not taking the newspaper for this period because the person delivering them might be infected without even knowing it.
- Keep a separate tray for the couriers or letters. The delivery man or the postman can place the courier/letter in the tray and courier may be left untouched for at least 24 hours.
- Tell the maids to not come for this period if you can’t then instruct maids not to touch the main doorknob or handle. Once the maid is inside, politely tell her to wash hands thoroughly, before touching other things. After that, wipe the Bell Switch with a sanitizer.
- Avoid ordering from Swiggy, Zomato, Big Basket, Flipkart, Amazon and other online outlets because any infected person would have unintentionally touched it in the process of delivering it to you.
- Wash all your fruits and vegetables once you bring them home, keep the bag you brought them in outside for 24 hours at least.
- Your TV remote, phone, mobiles and keyboards are the most highly contaminated elements in our household. Clean them at least once a day using a Cleaning Fluid.
- I can’t stress this enough but Please Wash Your Hands as frequently as you can when you’re in the house or in the office, at least once every half an hour. (Also Read: How to Effectively Work From Home Amidst Coronavirus Outbreak? )
- Avoid Public Transports as much as you can. Even Ola or Uber can’t be called safe this time.
- Stop taking tuitions. Stop taking any kind of classes. Save yourselves and your students at the same time. (Also Read: Coronavirus: Shelter-in-place vs Lockdown )
- When you return Home from Office or Shopping etc, discard your Clothes and wash your Hands and Feet thoroughly..
- Most importantly make sure you do not touch hands anywhere on your face.
- Keep children and elders full informed and tell them all the protective measures they might need.
- Ask Senior Citizens family or otherwise to stop going for the routine walking exercise. Since they are the ones at the most risk.
Start taking Social Distancing seriously. Make sure it’s you and your family for the next few days.
We’re all together in this. Virus knows no religion and no caste. You’ll be saving thousands of lives over the course of the next 15-20 days by following the above measures.
There are doctors, nurses, janitors, policemen etc working outside for us, let us stay inside for them. Make social distancing and washing hands a priority. Make sure you don’t let your guard down because we are really close to stage 3 and nobody in this nation wants that. So, let’s make it happen together.
