From frequent hand-washing with soap and water, to sanitizing items brought in from outside, or from going straight to the bathroom after bathing ... people are doing everything possible to keep the covid virus away. However, according to a recent study, our home can also be a cause for covid transmission.
How to stay safe at home?
It is really impossible to know which person is carrying the virus or where you got the virus from. But there are some things you can do to avoid carrying the virus with you when you go home, such as disinfect and clean. It is important that you and your loved ones who are at home stay safe, but it is not as difficult as it may seem. Here are some tips to help you stay safe during an epidemic.
Clean the air-conditioner
Air conditioning vents can be a breeding ground for breeding of Novel Corona virus and many types of germs. Cleaning the AC as well as disinfecting it is an important step. A study in China has also shown that air conditioners can play a role in the spread of Covid-19 and make the situation worse. It is advisable to keep the temperature of the AC medium in offices and other public places. This can be done at home.
Keep your home well ventilated
Dangerous viruses, such as the corona virus, are more prevalent in any room or area where there is no air circulation, scientists have suggested. Fresh and clean air circulation throughout the home is essential, as it also avoids the risk of spreading the infection. Similarly, if you are going to visit a place outside the house, make sure that it is airy. If the atmosphere in the room feels humid, understand that there is a problem with ventilation.
Wear gloves whenever you clean anything
It is important to clean the front of the room door and it is equally important to wear gloves when cleaning it. Do the same when you go shopping. It is common when you clean something and if it has viruses or germs on it it will infect you. If you are wearing gloves in such a situation, you will be safe. Don't forget to dispose of gloves properly after wearing them.
Sanitize yourself before coming in
It is your responsibility to make sure that you do not bring germs or corona virus into your home. Carry a sanitizer with you if you know the area you are going to is more dangerous. Remove shoes before entering. Take extra precautions if you have high-risk members in your household. If you are carrying a package home, disinfect it outside the home. If someone comes to your home, sanitize their hands first and follow social distance if possible. Wear a mask if crowded.
