Covid-19 is a serious sickness that affects mankind globally. This is why it is considered as a pandemic in the history of the world. Many people suffered and died because of this sickness and the World Health Organization (WHO) tried to minimize its effect on us. How can we fight Covid-19? There are some protective measures that we need to observe and follow in order to minimize its transmission. One of these is the self care. After exposure to someone who has Covid-19, do the following: 1. Call your health care provider or Covid-19 hotline to find out where and when to get a test. 2. Cooperate with contact tracing procedures to stop the spread of the virus. 3. If testing is not available, stay home and away from others for 14 days. 4. While you are in quarantine, do not go to work, to school or to public places. Ask someone to bring you supplies. 5. Keep at least 1-meter distance from others, even from your family members. 6. Wear a medical mask to protect others, including if/when you need to seek medical care. 7. Clean your hands frequently. 8. Stay in a separate room from other family members. 9. Keep the room well-ventilated. 10. Monitor yourself for any symptoms for 14 days. 11. Call your health care provider immediately if you have any of these danger signs: difficulty breathing, loss of speech or mobility, confusion or chest pain. 12. Stay positive by keeping in touch with loved ones by phone or online, and by exercising at home.
