Fighting the COVID-19 Pandemic

The SARS-CoV-2 virus causes Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19).

The majority of those infected with the virus will have mild to moderate respiratory symptoms and will recover without the need for specific treatment. Some, on the other hand, will become gravely unwell and require medical attention. People over the age of 65, as well as those with underlying medical disorders such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, or cancer, are more likely to develop serious illnesses. COVID-19 can make anyone sick, and they can get very ill or die at any age.

When an infected person coughs, sneezes, speaks, sings, or breathes, the virus spreads in microscopic liquid particles from their mouth or nose. Larger respiratory droplets to smaller aerosols are among the particles. If you are sick, it is critical to adopt respiratory etiquette, such as coughing into a flexed elbow, and to stay at home and self-isolate until you heal.

COVID-19 is more likely to spread in crowded, poorly ventilated places where infected persons spend extended periods of time in close quarters.

Restaurants, choir practices, fitness classes, nightclubs, businesses, and places of worship have all reported outbreaks in places where people congregate, frequently in packed indoor settings and where they talk loudly, shout, breathe deeply, or sing.

To make your surroundings as secure as possible, take the following steps: Avoid the 3Cs: closed, crowded, or close-contact spaces. Meet people outside. Outdoor gatherings are safer than indoor gatherings, especially if the indoor spaces are small and there is no access to fresh air. If you can't avoid being in a crowded or enclosed environment, take these precautions: When you're indoors, open a window to get more natural ventilation. Put on a mask.

Being thoroughly informed on the disease and how it spreads is the best strategy to avoid and slow down transmission. Stay at least 1 meter away from people, wear a well fitted mask, and wash your hands or use an alcohol-based rub periodically to protect yourself and others from infection. When it's your turn, get vaccinated and follow local advice.
