Be it for grocery shopping or some other errands. We all get anxious and overwhelmed at the thought of stepping outside. Worry not and keep calm, as there are few basic steps you can follow while going out. In this blog will explain some tips Tips for Tackling COVID-19 Outdoors<\/p>\r\n<h2><strong>Tips for Tackling COVID-19 Outdoors: Stay Safe and Calm<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wear Mask<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">Always step out wearing a mask. According to research, Coronavirus is spread primarily through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/goatsandsoda\/2020\/07\/06\/887919633\/aerosols-droplets-fomites-what-we-know-about-transmission-of-covid-19\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\">nasal droplets<\/a>. Make sure the mask covers your nose and mouth. This restricts the entry of viruses through the nasal tunnel when someone in the surrounding sneezes or coughs. Homemade cloth masks do the job well.\u00a0 Make sure you disinfect the mask after every use. In conclusion, Mask saves lives.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Social Distancing<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">Mask alone cannot prevent the spread of the virus. So, it must be followed by physical distancing. However, physical distancing is practiced to stop or slow the spread of infection. Consider shops or restaurants with open-air for your visit. Certainly, a distance of 1 meter is recommended for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mohfw.gov.in\/pdf\/SocialDistancingAdvisorybyMOHFW.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\">social distancing<\/a>. Follow the guidelines issued by your local authority.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carry your own bag<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">During a pandemic or otherwise, carry your own bag, in good conscience. Moreover, by carrying your own bag, you can avoid being in touch with a new bag, which may or may not be infected. Further, you are reducing the burden on the earth. Wash\/disinfect the bag after use.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Groceries<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">Groceries are the most sought after essential item in this pandemic. Before and after picking them, sanitize your hands. Leave the bag of groceries outside on the balcony or in the veranda, in sunlight for 4 hours before bringing them inside the house.\u00a0 Do not use sanitizer on fruits and vegetables.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Go Alone<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">While stepping out don\u2019t go in crowds. Avoid going out in groups. In short, the fewer the people on streets, the safer it is for everyone.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contactless Pay<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">Avoid cash transactions and opt for contactless pay. Cash goes through a lot of hands, before ending up in yours. Moreover, it&#8217;s not very convenient to sanitize it every time.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">Keep your worries at bay and enjoy some sunlight.<\/p>\r\n<p><strong>Also Read<\/strong>:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/boxigo.in\/blog\/tips-for-picking-houses-in-a-new-city\/\"> Tips for Picking Houses in a new city<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/boxigo.in\/blog\/10-tips-for-choosing-the-best-packers-and-movers-in-bangalore\">10 tips for choosing the packers and movers in bangalore<\/a><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way we feel about stepping out of the house.
