COVID FACTS!!

“A myth may be a religion during which nobody any more believes"

What we believe:

We believe in myths more than to make effort to learn fact. We come to a mindset than to mind the fact through the flooded information and rumors available from different sources. They make us difficult to differentiate facts from fiction.

The date carved in history:

The world health organisation announced public health emergency situation as “pandemic" - 11th March 2020.

Unveiling the facts:

Here are some myth BUSTERS for the people of pandemic who were not aware, want to be aware and for those who haven't thought of these myths which covers fear and insecurity among the suffering society to taste the facts.



FACTS AT SERVICE:

The virus is artificially made in laboratory- Myth

☆ There is NO evidence of this virus being man-made and in fact it originates in animals ,this falls in the line of SARS-CoV-2 and MERS with a difference of coronavirus having a human host.

If you can hold your breath for 10 SECONDS, you don’t have corona – Myth

☆ This has not been officially recognised by the World Health Organisation and you cannot establish the infection by this breathing exercise. It can be dangerous sometimes.

We are in Hot climate - no corona- Myth:

☆ It can be transmitted in any areas in no particular order. As places like Africa and our hot hotter hottest India still have  corona cases increasing everyday.

Mosquito bites – beware of corona: Myth

☆ It is a respiratory virus which spreads through droplets from the infected person on cough or sneeze. This is not dengue.

Hand dryers for corona- Myth 

☆ They are not effective unless you clean your hands with soaps and sanitizer that are alcohol based .

Drink warm water , stand in sunlight-Myth

☆ This is not true as virus exist in these situations also. But drinking water every ten minutes can hydrate your body.

I’ve heard of the demonic virus before- Myth

☆ Novel means new. It is a new type of coronavirus that was not found in the past . ‘Corona virus' is a virus family whose members left the impression by previous strains of viruses.

DONT keep even one step outside the house, it is a pandemic!!- Myth

☆The general advice is to ‘stay home stay safe ‘ . It doesn’t mean you should not go to your yard or walk around neighbourhood for fresh air and exercise. We are safe as long as we continue to follow the precautions insisted by our government.

Drinking alcohol reduces risk of Infection- Myth
WHO released statement where they explain ‘although alcohol can disinfect the skin and surface , it does not work the same way inside the body’. As you know Consuming alcohol has
health risks, even though ignoring, it is a corona RISK.

A TAKE HOME MESSAGE:


We are greatly alarmed by affected people , suffering communities, deaths and future anxiety of postCoVI19 conditions all around the world.

Instead of dwelling in the myths that are unworthy let us sense the prevention cures by making us healthy and reflecting the positivity to our neighbourhood, friends and society .
