Stemming in Wuhan, China since last December, the coronavirus disease has dropped the human race a bomb we have yet to fully tackle.
Initially contagious from a virus in bats and civets, the novel derivative of coronavirus named COVID-19 then hopped into the human body after a person feasting on bats. Then the disease spreads even more horribly when someone has a close contact with invisible droplets from a cough or even communicating person.
The lung, spleen or intestine environment would facilitate the viruses’ shameless replication. It’s also causing a fuss for our inner immune system. In most cases, our reliable immune system can get up again and take control, while others with weak immune systems cannot. That’s when respiratory failure sets in. This could have a grave effect on you and anyone else. Coronavirus is no joke.
In fact, the coronavirus has brought every single aspect of our lives to a halt. We cannot say for sure how long this will last and to what extent the world will actually suffer. But that’s for later.
What you should do now is educate yourself with credential information on this matter. Maybe you’ve been planning a trip to Vietnam for so long. But now you’re wondering whether it’s okay or not to depart, right? Keep reading to find out the answer.
What are waiting for you?
How To Protect Yourself Against The Virus: Better Safe Than Sorry
As of now, there is no vaccine to prevent coronavirus disease yet. Therefore, equipping yourself with sufficient protection is the most viable option. Follow these instructions from the WHO to prevent the risk of the coronavirus disease for you and your family.
- Know when and how to use a mask properly.
- When to use a mask: during social exposure and close contact with people who cough or sneeze
- How to use a mask: a mask should cover enough the area of your nose and mouth. Plus, there should be no space between your face and the mask. Replace the mask when it’s moist and dispose of one-time masks after using it.
- Wash your hands properly: a proper wash should last 20 seconds along with hand sanitizer or soap. Make sure every area on your hands is well-touched.
- Maintain social distancing: stay at least two meters clear between yourself and who is coughing or sneezing. Even when you are on Vietnam customized tours, which are quite safe, do not forget to do this. Prevention is better than cure.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth: these are the first path that the coronavirus enters your body. Make sure to keep your hands further away from them!
- Seek help immediately if you think you have close contact with a potential corona patient, or if you have any symptoms of the disease. These symptoms include: fever, tiredness, dry cough, sore throat (some might even have diarrhea, runny nose and nausea). Call these hotlines in an emergency: 1900 9095 or 1900 3228
But most importantly, keep yourself sane on social media and other communication channels, that’ll do you good these days.
