Keeping Alabama Safe From Coronavirus

Advertisements

Coronavirus started as a mystery virus in China and has been able to spread at an alarming rate in China. Well, to be honest, every country is at risk at the moment. The reason is that the virus can easily be spread through travelers from China.

Apparently, the US is taking precautionary measures to prevent this virus from infecting people of the US. They screen patients for cold symptoms at the airport. Well, as residents of Alabama, we also need to adopt measures so that we can seek protection from this virus.

I believe even basic precautionary measures can help to halt the spread of the disease.

Stopping Coronavirus in Alabama

The first step you can follow is to avoid close contact with people who are suffering from respiratory illness.

Eat the right food

Secondly, we also need to take special care when eating food. Eggs and meat need to be cooked properly. Try to include garlic in your diet. It has anti-viral properties. You can add it to your soups. If you can eat it raw, then this will also offer value.

Star Anise has also got anti-viral properties so you can try adding it to your tea to benefit from it. If you want to boost your immunity, then you can even add ginger to your food.

Cleaning regime to follow

Changes in lifestyle can play a crucial role to protect you from the virus. For example, you should make it a point to wash your hands for at least 20 seconds. If you just returned from China to Alabama, then make sure that you seek medical attention right away if you have cold symptoms.

Make sure that you keep your hands away from your mouth. If you are traveling, then you should make use of an oil-based sanitizer.

Avoid crowded places

It is vital to avoid crowded places because it increases the probability of catching the virus. It will also not be a bad idea to wear a mask in crowded places.

If any Alabama resident is staying in China and is suffering from the virus, then the best approach is to get it treated right away. You should not travel back to Alabama till you are fully cured. It is your moral responsibility so that you do not put the health of others on the line.

Now, there are times when people want to leave a country that is already affected by a disease and they leave no stone unturned to take refuge in another country. They even visit fake id websites to get their documentation completed at the earliest.

Here, the role of the authorities is essential. They should go through the documentation of such individuals to ensure that people should not be able to enter Alabama by illegal means.

We will all have to make our effort to keep Alabama safe so that we do not have to worry about this deadly virus. Take your first step towards better health today.
