You are the surest when you are at home, there is always a risk outside, then stay unless it isabsolutely essential to leave. And I do not have people that you do not get away in your home. As for othersPeople's spaces: Do not go into another person's house or buildings other than your home, unless you're ready to take the risk. Being outside is actually safer. You are very unlikely to be infected by Covid-19 outside in fresh air. The risk of transmissionincreases considerablyWhen you go inside.

We know that the virus is spreading person to a person inside the droplets of respiratory mucus. These are expired when an infected person speaks, touches or sneezing. LargestRespiratory dropletsTravel a short distance and are quickly dispersed by wind and air currents, before they fall on the ground. The virus is also sensitive to temperature and moisture, so it can not exist for long periods suspended in the air, or outside the body. Smaller droplets, known asaerosolcan linger up to 3 hours.

However, if you go inside, you lost this protection.

Conscious thatAir conditioning unitsAnd ventilation systems can increase the risk of transmission, especially in shopping centers, restaurants and offices, for example. The key message is to practicesocial distancingAt any time, the CDC recommendation is that you stay 6 feet (about 2 lengths of arms) of anyone who is not in your household. And if someone from your household becomes sick, immediately put the forty of this person, tester them - and wear a facial mask at your home.

When wearing a mask

TheCDCRecommends that everyone bears a mask if they are out of their homes and unable to exercise safe social distancing - for example, in a supermarket, a pharmacy or a doctor's office. This is particularly important at any time inside.

Outside, if you are in a built area, where the sidewalks are congested, you should alsomask, and of course, every time you usepublic transport.

However, if you walk, when you enter a less busy location, where you can keep your distance 6 feet, you can delete your mask. When you are outside, like a park, woods or uncloched beach (or in the water), it is not necessary to wear a mask.

Wear a mask is useful for reducing viral spreading, however, it doesnot preventSpread viral completely. Do not think that by wearing a mask, none of the other protective measures involves. You must always be in hand of the washing of the hand frequently and stay at 6 feet from others.

Keep moving

Scientists believe you should be close to another person for at least15 minutesHold a good chance to acquire the virus. They also believe that it is important to continue moving. You are less likely to transmit the virus if you walk and talk at 6 feet away, if you are sitting, for example, sharing a park bench or a beach towel, even when you still maintain a distance of 6 feet.

Remember that you must breathe a significant amount of viruses to become infected. You are not infected to breathe in some particles of viruses. However, no one knows how much virus is necessary to train a person to become infected byCOVID-19 [Feminine. To stay safe, stay out in fresh air, stay 6 meters from others and continue moving when possible.

It is always important to limit the exit and even if companies reassociate and that life seems to resume a kind of normality, it comes out and mix with other people who increase the risk of becoming infected.

Here are a few tips:

  • If you want to go with friends and / or family at alloutdoor place, like a wooded park, look first online. Choose somewhere near you. Check the car parking and facilities. Take adequate supplies of food and water with you. Try to avoid peak hours to avoid crowds. Take your mask and sanitizer by hand.

The challenges of COVID-19 have launched the best and the worst behavior of people. Some people seem to think that there is a rule for the rest of the country and a different rule for them. (For an example, see what's going on in Texas.) The others, absorbed by discussions to friends or take care of children, tend to forget that they should keep their distance. So, quite often, you can look around and see the play-by-jagella and apparently completely indifferent.

The time has come to be asserted. Do not be afraid if someone buys on your space to ask them politely ", can I have a little more space here." Be polished and try to be friendly and not accusing. You do not want to cause a violent reaction.

Give a good example. Be proactive on the washing of the hands and the use of a disinfectant gel. Cross the road if necessary, give people a wide berth. Move a seat on public transport if necessary.

Keep a safe distance behind the person in front of you when walking

There is much more to become infected than inhaling some virus particles - there must be a sufficient number of virus particles, which must be capable of surviving and reproducing to infect you. The more you are close to someone else, the greater the risk. At 6 meters away, the risk is minimal, especially outdoors, regardless of the other person. However, keep a safe distance and use your common sense. If you can, dodge the Slipstream and walk on one side.

Do not greet others with a hug or kiss

Refuge

It is instinctive to run and kiss friends and family. But now it's a big "no-no" for those who do not live under your roof. The virus is transmitted to saliva, then kisses no one, share a drink or eat foods that someone else has eaten, who does not live in your household. So, for now, there are many other greetings, a vulcan salvation to a hug!

If you need to use a toilet while you are outside, take extreme care because it is there that the transmission could happen.COVID-19 [Femininewas isolated from 60% of toilet sites (toilet seat, washbasin and door handle) a hospital room of an infected patient.

Although Covid-19 spread largely through respiratory droplets, it may diffuse faeces. After opening your bowels, when rinking the toilets, the viral particles in feces can spread up as aerosol in the water plume, some suggest that3 feet.

The evidence suggests that the virus can survive up to 3 hours as Erosol and 3 days, if splashed on a plastic surface, such as a toilet seat. If you enter someone's house, they could lose the virus. Or, if you visit a public toilet, you have no idea that has just been there in front of you. Visit the toilets must be one of theThe most risky momentsfor viral transmission. Make sure before leaving your home, you have your mask, your disposable gloves, your sanitation of wipes and an alcohol gel in your bag.

To go swimming

Chlorine and bromine destroy Cvid-19 effectively. The CDC declares that swimming in swimming pools is safe. However, it's the proximity with other people who is the problem and you must always stay 6 meters in the water. You will probably be safer in a friend's pool in their garden than in a public pool.

Be careful in crowded lockers and when using the shower and the bathroom, you wash your hands as usual and keep your distance.

Freshwater, such as rivers and external lakes, have the potential to be contaminated by Covid-19 of untreated wastewater. Get advice from theHealthy swimming information based on the state.

The good news is that the shooting does not appear particularly risky. However, for the lowest risk over a day, you are probably better to prepare and take your own food. You may want to buy hot foods or drinks while you are outside and the principles are the same.

Most of the evidence suggests that there are few risks related to the transmission of Covid through the food or packaging of food. If you swallow the virus in your stomach, it will probably be killed by the stomach acids anyway.

However, here are some tips:

  • Make it a purchase without contact.
  • The seller must place the food on the counter and retreat before moving forward to pick it up.
  • Wash your hands before eating.

A last note of the doctor

Refuge

Remember that people infected with the excrete Covid-19 virus when they have no symptoms. Asymptomatic people, infected by Covid-19, who do not know they have infection, areequally infectiousAnd transmit so many viruses, like those who have tested positive and have symptoms. If someone feels good, you can not say if they have COVID-19, unless you have a test. Even a person who appears completely well can have the virus in their body and can send you to you. It's everyone you spend in the street, in the park and the corner store. Stay alert and be on a constant compartment. Covid-19 is a hidden enemy. And stay indoors unless it's absolutely essential not to do it. And to cross this pandemic without catching coronavirus, do not miss this essential list:Most coovidants did this before getting sick.
