In March 2020, the world was in a whirlwind of something that we did not expect and let alone did not know what was going on. All of a sudden we were not able to see our loved ones or let alone be in any walking distance because seeing one another can spread the thing that we do not understand. The thing that we do not understand is a global pandemic, also known as the coronavirus. The World Health Organization and CDC have proclaimed the virus to be a pandemic. There has been a lot of rising in the number of cases. There are these steps that you can follow to prevent you from getting the virus and spreading the virus to everyone you may know.

The main and first step is to social distance. The term social distancing has been used a lot during this pandemic. It is used to describe how we need to be distance one another but can still find a way to be social with one another. We have to remain to avoid close contact and try to stay away for a long while until the number of cases goes down. It is one of the most important steps we can take.

The second most important step is to avoid crowds and big gatherings of people. An example of where to find crowds are concerts, conferences, sports gatherings, and large transit. However, the best practice is to maintain a six-foot distance from others. The third most important step is wearing a proper facial covering. The facial covering has to cover the nose, mouth, and over chin. The masks are used to prevent the virus from spreading to other people. It prevents the bacteria from getting into the air and spreading more and more to people in your general area. These main steps can stop the transmission of the coronavirus and can help all of us move forward.
