Corona Virus-Do and Don’ts-Good luck to all of us!
Here is what we should be doing taking the precautions …
Humans have never seen this kind of virus before and have no internal defense against it. Tremendous worldwide efforts are being made to understand the molecular and clinical virology of this virus. Unbelievable molecular knowledge about the genomics, structure, and virulence of this virus has already been achieved. BUT, there will be NO drugs or vaccines available this year to protect us or limit the infection within us.Speculation and promises are out there…. and only symptomatic support is available.
I hope these suggestions will be helpful during this potentially catastrophic pandemic.
1) NO HANDSHAKING! Use a fist bump,
slight bow, elbow bump, etc.
