COVID-19: facing the coronavirus has been a worldwide challenge. And in the midst of a pandemic that has no cure or vaccination, prevention is still the best medicine.
To help you in this challenge against COVID-19, we have prepared a list of precautions that are necessary to prevent coronavirus at home! Let’s check it out? Follow the reading in full and protect against the coronavirus yourself!
Caution 1: take off your shoes to enter the house.
Did you go out to the market? Did you have to go to work? Upon arriving home, it is recommended to remove your shoes before entering.
Unfortunately, shoes can act as a means of transport for microorganisms – including the virus that causes the disease. Therefore, an excellent tip is to never enter dirty shoes into the house.
Those who constantly go out to work, even in the midst of the pandemic, can opt for a shoe rack at the door of their home, facilitating the movement of entry / exit and cleaning of the environment.
Those who only left for occasional reasons and remain isolated in the residence, can take off their shoes and take them straight to the laundry room, without having to leave them at the door.
Caution 2: wash all the clothes you used outside
Another very important recommendation for those who needed to leave the house is: wash your clothes as soon as you arrive!
To prevent the spread of the coronavirus, remove your clothes as soon as you get home, taking them to wash immediately.
If there are few pieces, you can put them in the machine until you add enough to wash. But don’t walk around the house with dirty clothes – let alone mix with clean items.
Luckily, most products used for daily washing are enough to kill the virus, but it is recommended to wash the clothes separately, use plenty of soap and try to soak them.
Caution 3: clean your purchases and packaging well
Did you order food from outside the house? Arrived with purchases from the market? Sanitize all objects that have been in contact with the external environment!
Use gel alcohol or wash them with water and detergent, minimizing the risk of spreading the coronavirus. Extra care must be taken with packaging (pots, cans, boxes), fruits and vegetables and plastic bags.
Caution 4: keep the house very clean
This tip is essential especially care needed for those who have a family member who needs to leave home (even if it is for a basic purchase in the market).
As soon as you return to the residence, clean everything you touch: be it knobs, keys or any type of object.
To do this, use gel alcohol for the surfaces and a common disinfectant for the floors. Although cleanliness is essential, neuras and exaggerations are not necessary! Just clean the surfaces only when you have contact with objects outside the house and wipe the floor once a day!
Caution 5: leave the rooms well ventilated
No closing all windows and preventing air from entering!
The more airy the house is, the better! So, let the air in and make sure that no room is enclosed, bringing even more health to your family!
By following this care needed manual and tips, it is possible to protect against the coronavirus even at home!
