Hello my bloggers, welcome back. I know you are all pretty sick and tired of hearing about the Corona Virus, and so am I. Given the severity of the situation though, I will be talking about how to stay protected from this virus, instead of talking to you about cars. I hope all of you are healthy and have the necessary supplies to get through this quarantine.

The Corona Virus is an infectious disease that comes from a new type of virus or viruses. This disease attacks the respiratory system and you can experience the same symptoms as the flu. This is why a lot of people are getting tested and I do not blame them, I would be scared too. The disease is very deadly because it is new and has infected more people then the hospitals can handle. The disease spreads fastest through air particles. This is also why social distancing is in place because germs usually tend to spread 0-6 feet. This disease should not be taken lightly, now lets talks about how some ways you can protect yourself from the Corona Virus

Wear a mask

Since the disease’s main way of infecting others is through the air, it is always important to wear a mask especially if you have a light cough. Germs in general can spread up to six feet, but sneezing and coughing is a different story. When you sneeze and cough, your body releases undetected gas bubbles called “multiphase turbulent buoyant bubble”. Wow, that is one big word and no it is not fake! These bubbles can actually travel up to 200 feet and like I said there undetectable. The best thing you can do if you plan on going to the store or anywhere in public, just wear a mask. Depending on where you live, you may or may not have access to these supplies. Also just any mask will not do, it may reduce your chance but it is not guaranteed to do the job. These are the mask that your are suppose to be wearing that protect you the most: homemade cloth face mask, surgical mask, and N95 respirator.

Wash your hands

Washing your hands might not seem like it does a lot, but if you could see all the germs on your hand from coming out a grocery store, I think you would probably freak out. Washing your hands is very important because you use your hands to touch: garbage, dirty dishes, kids toys, and etc. Then you might wonder off doing something else, and then released you touch food or a part of your face with your dirty hands. No your probably not going to die, but you will definitely have and increase risk of getting the corona virus or any virus in general. Every time you wash your hands, you should wash for an extra 5-10 seconds just to be safe. Also maybe buying a little bottle of hand sanitizer as well would not be a bad idea. Be careful and make sure you get the recommended brand because some brands have way too much alcohol in them. This can cause skin irritation problems and actually destroys some of the good bacteria on your skin.

Don’t go outside

Like I said in the paragraph above, depending on your situation, you may just want to stay inside and ride it out. Where I live, there are only a couple of cases in our County. Social distancing is taking place here, but we are not on lock down just quite yet. Now if you got to a place like New York, they are in a full quarantine zone and you only leave the house for emergencies only. If you have infants or elderly people living with you, make 100 percent sure they do not go outside. They are targets to this virus because they more then likely have a weaker immune system then you do. Also they might be dealing with other medical problems and this disease can flare things up pretty good.
