How to Protect Yourself From Viral Infections?

As the world around us is going insane over the COVID-19 (Coronavirus disease 2019) spread, it is important to stay calm, rise up to the situation and be responsible global citizens. Like any other viral diseases, there are many precautionary steps we can take to fight against COVID-19. At present, COVID-19 doesn’t have any preventive vaccinations so it is important to keep in mind and follow the tips given below.

Increase your immunity

Taking multi-vitamin tablets, exercising regularly, an intake of a diet high in vegetables and fruits, getting enough sleep, and minimizing stress are some of the important steps towards boosting your immunity.

Keep your hands clean

Washing your hands properly with soap and water, lather and scrub your hands for at least 20 seconds. Use a hand sanitizer when you can’t use soap and water.

Stay hydrated

An adult male should take in 3.7L of fluids and an adult female should take in 2.7L of fluids every day.
