Because of this Covid 19 Coronavirus, everything has come to a standstill. Only emergency works are in progress. Work from Home (WFH) is the most popular style of work at this moment.

Symptoms - 

The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, tiredness, and dry cough. Some patients may have aches and pains, nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat or diarrhea. These symptoms are usually mild and begin gradually. Some people become infected but don’t develop any symptoms and don't feel unwell. Most people (about 80%) recover from the disease without needing special treatment. Around 1 out of every 6 people who gets COVID-19 becomes seriously ill and develops difficulty breathing. Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like high blood pressure, heart problems or diabetes, are more likely to develop serious illness. People with fever, cough and difficulty breathing should seek medical attention.

Solutions -

1. Vaccination is the permanent solution and testing is currently in progress. It may take 6 to 18 months for the vaccine to be ready. 

2. Another solution is that a combination of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin is given to the high-risk Covid 19 patient and the recovery success rate is pretty high. It is not the official drug for Covid 19 patients. Testing is currently in progress. Again this drug should be consumed by high-risk patients only and under the proper guidance of the concerned doctor.

2. We need to make social distancing now. Don't go outside unless it is extremely urgent. Don't allow others to visit your building or campus.

3. Kindly put a stop to online shopping. If it is extremely critical kindly collect that courier outside the campus.

4. Doors, Door handles, Main Gate, Clothes, Vegetable, Milk, etc, all act as fomites which may carry coronavirus. Hence, kindly disinfect all these stuff before use. Or kindly store commodities for 12-14 hrs in a separate place so that the virus could die.

5. The virus can affect any age group. Anyone who is Covid 19 positive can pass it to others also.

6. Covid 19 symptoms may appear between 2-14 days after getting infected. So even if we are carrying it the symptoms may take time to appear. In most cases, symptoms may not appear at all.

7. Wear a mask while going out. Don't take your hand near your mouth or nose. Only one person from the family should go out in need of any grocery or vegetable shopping. Once returned from shopping kindly wash the clothes properly. Take a proper bath and wash your hands properly.

The best precaution is Stay Healthy, Stay Safe and Stay Indoors! This is the best time to enjoy with family as we may not get such a chance again in our whole lifetime!
