What is coronavirus?
Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that can cause respiratory illness. While many types of coronaviruses circulate without causing significant harm, one strain—SARS-CoV-2—has led to a global COVID-19 pandemic.
How does Coronavirus Spread?
Coronavirus spreads primarily through respiratory droplets released by infected individuals when they breathe, talk, cough, or sneeze. These droplets can linger in the air, particularly in indoor spaces with poor ventilation, allowing the virus to accumulate in areas with many people. To prevent this, it is essential to practice mask-wearing, hand hygiene, and physical distancing.
What Can We Do to Mitigate the Risk?
To reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19, we must adhere to preventive measures:
1. Wear a mask to protect yourself and others from airborne particles.
2. Wash your hands regularly with soap and water or use a hand sanitiser with at least 60% alcohol.
3. Practice physical distancing to limit close contact with others.
