Covid-19: Just the facts.
1. Basically, you can't leave the house for any reason, but if you have to, then you can.
2. Masks are useless, but maybe it will become mandatory for everyone to wear one.
3. Stores are closed, except those that are open.
4.Gloves won't help, but they can still help.
5.Everyone needs to stay HOME, but it's important to GO OUT for self care and exercise.
6.There is no shortage of necessities in the supermarket unless you get there in the evening. In the morning you can get everything you need .... sometimes.
7.The virus has no effect on children, except those children who have been affected.
8.Animals are not affected, but there is a cat that tested positive in Belgium in February, plus a few tigers here and there.
9.You will have many symptoms if you are sick, but you can also be sick or contagious without symptoms. Additionally, you can have symptoms and not be sick with the virus.
10.You can't go to retirement homes, but you must bring things there.
11. You can get restaurant food delivered to the house, which may have been prepared by people who didn't wear masks or gloves. But you have to decontaminate your groceries or leave them outside for 3 days.
12. You are safe if you maintain the appropriate social distance. But you can’t meet with family or friends at the safe social distance unless you live under the same roof.
13. The virus remains active on different surfaces for different lengths of time: two hours, no four, no six, no, not hours, it’s days. But it takes a damp environment... but not necessarily.
14. The virus stays in the air. So the safe social distance can change based on variables,such as wind velocity, which can cause it to travel further, or not.
15. We have no treatment, except maybe one, but it isn’t widely used because it is not dangerous.
16. We should continue to quarantine until the virus disappears, but it will only disappear if we achieve collective immunity by being exposed through contact with others.
