So we have reached the 14th day of Lockdown but there is no sign of flattening of the curve. Sounds so scary right! Only one week is left and after that we have to resume our normal schedules. Then what? Not all of us can work from home. And given the density of population in our country, social distancing is almost impossible without an imposed section 144 or curfew. But we have to take all the necessary precautions till this COVID19 is eradicated from the face of the earth. Otherwise, we all would end up infecting each other.
1. Social Distancing: This is the foremost precaution we have to take irrespective of lockdown or not. Forget going to malls. movie theatres or attending/hosting parties. Isolation is better than suffering. I guess all would agree.
2. Face masks: Don't even think of stepping out of the house without a face mask. A face shield helps in protecting yourself as well as others in innumerable ways.
The droplets are not released in to the air.
The shield prevents the infective droplets from reaching our respiratory passages.
Since this novel Coronavirus seems to survive on surfaces for days, it's important that you cover up yourself fully before stepping out.
A face shield with screen visor for eye protection provides added defence. You just have to remove the entire thing before entering your home.
3. Use a Body Temperature Gun: We all are social animals even in this time of social distancing. We rely on a number of people for our daily needs. Like the food delivery boy or the parcel person or even our home guards. We need to let the entry of certain outside people too in our homes. How can we know whether they are infected or not?
By using a Non contact digital infrared thermometer Body temperature gun.
How does it work?
