COVID-19 is a viral infection caused by novel coronavirus or severe acute respiratory syndrome as coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). It is a deadly disease that primarily affects our respiratory system. Although the fatality rate of COVID-19 is much lesser than SARS or MERS, its transmission is very high than any other viral infection.
We have to take various safety measures at this time of the pandemic, such as:
1. Maintain at least two ft. distance from people especially who are symptomatic.
2. Wash your hands frequently using soap or handwash. Keep a sanitizer with you.
3. Don't touch your eyes, mouth or nose with unwashed hands.
4. Cover your cough and sneeze.
5. Cover your face using face mask (especially for those who are symptomatic).
A person having strong immunity would not easily get infected from COVID-19. Hence, for increasing immunity, eat healthy food like green leafy vegetables and berries. Vitamin C is known for boosting immunity, so include lemon, orange and sour things in your diet.
