Avoid traveling anywhere without an urgent need. And if you have flu-like symptoms (cough, fever, runny nose or sneezing), refrain from traveling as much as you need to.
2. Avoid crowded areas
It is best to avoid populated areas to avoid infection with the virus. The reason may be that a person does not have any symptoms of coronavirus, but he is a carrier of the disease. Because the symptoms of the virus do not appear within 14 days. So it is better to avoid crowded places. Because it is from this population that the virus can infect you.

Seek medical help immediately if you have flu symptoms and difficulty breathing. Get the corona tested according to the doctor's advice.
4. Maintain distance
