Prevention is better than cure, and with the state of

anxiety recently caused by the Corona virus in all


countries of the world, it is necessary to follow the
methods of preventing corona virus, according to the
net doctor website, where experts recommend doing
the same things that you might do to avoid infection
with influenza to prevent corona.
Corona virus prevention methods

Wash your hands Washing hands is one of the most


important things to prevent from the Corona virus, it
is necessary to wash the nails and the skin between
your fingers, as they are places for all kinds of
bacteria to hide.
Always wash your hands after using the bathroom
and after blowing your nose, coughing, and touching
animals, and before eating, wash your hands for at
least 20 seconds.
- Use hand sanitizer
It's best to wash your hands whenever possible. Use
an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least
60 percent alcohol.
Do not touch your face with dirty hands
Viruses can enter your body through your eyes, nose,
mouth and other openings, and putting dirty,
contaminated hands on your face can lead to
infection. Don't give these germs a chance, wash your
hands before you touch your eyes, nose, and mouth.
Studies show that wearing a face mask to protect you
from epidemics or respiratory diseases may provide
some protection, but only in certain circumstances.

- Avoid close contact with sick people

If it is clear that someone has the infection, help


yourself to stay healthy by avoiding close contact that
can spread viruses, and stop hugs, kisses and
handshakes.
If someone is coughing and sneezing, walk away and
explain that you don't want to get sick.
Cover your mouth when coughing or sneezing

When you cough and sneeze, small droplets filled


with thousands of viruses and bacteria leave your
body at about 100 miles per hour. They can land on
surfaces and other people, and even stay suspended in
the air for long periods, and this is an effective way
to spread infection.
Try to cough or sneeze into your elbow if possible to
help prevent droplets from being released into the air.
If you are unable to do this, use a tissue to cover your
mouth, but using your hand also works if there is no
alternative.
Cleaning and disinfecting objects and surfaces

Use bleach or disinfectant to wipe kitchen and


bathroom surfaces, telephones, door handles, and
children's toys.
Once you realize how easy it is for germs to get
attached, you can see the importance of this step.
- Boosting the immune system

Your best defense against any infection is an active


and healthy immune system. Make the following part
of your routine:
Exercise: Make sure your immune system gets a
boost with regular exercise.
Eat well: The foods you eat and what you drink are
key factors for immune function.
Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Moist
cells are better at fighting infection and flushing out
toxins, germs, and pollutants from the body.
Eat 5 fruits and vegetables daily
Fruits and vegetables contain nutrients, antioxidants,
fiber, oils, and acids that keep your immune system
healthy and happy. Eat plenty of food and try to
include as many different colors as possible to ensure
you benefit from the full range of active compounds
