7 Habits of Everyday to Avoid If You Do Not Want Covid (3 of 4)

Do not leave the house if you feel sick

The easiest way to keep others safe is to govern yourself accordingly if you don’t feel well. You wouldn’t want someone else putting you at risk, so have the same respect and courtesy for your community and loved ones. If you feel sick, just stay at home until you are able to safely get tested and see a doctor.

Cover your mouth

If you have to sneeze or cough, do everyone a favor and cover your mouth. It is one of the easiest things you can do to protect others. And this is a health practice that has been recommended for public behavior long before the pandemic. If you are not able to cough or sneeze into a tissue or some sort of cloth, then it is best to direct the sneeze or cough into your elbow. Using your hand does not really soften the blow of spreading the respiratory droplets, and also gets your hands covered in germs.
