Covid 19 Virus - the microscopic being let loose on us, creating havoc globally
Is it Mother Nature's way of rapping us humans on the knuckles or rather lungsIs this her way of telling us to stop plundering precious planet earth - the bounty given to us which we are racing to destroy
WHO's website answers all questions related to this pandemic causing virus
Why washing of hands can protect us
very simply the virus has a lipid outer layer i.e. its oily and therefore sticky, so it sticks to surfaces, in particular clean, shiny surfaces like metals and plastics, from where our hands pick it up, and gets stuck in the crevices of our skin. When we touch our face, it enters our system through the mouth, nose or eyes and creates havoc in particular with our pulmonary system hence the breathing problems. Soap is effective in dislodging the oily substance and washing away the virus from our hands.
To understand why washing of hands is so important, the biochemistry of the virus is explained well in the following website:
PM Narendra Modi has called for "Janta Curfew" to stonewall the spread of infection
Whichever country it has hit initially just few cases and then suddenly a huge spikeIndia is at that juncture where just around 250 Covid 10 infected people...can we take preventive steps to retard that spike
Looking forward to the "Janta Curfew"on Sunday 22 March 2020 to stay at home for 14 hours from 7 am to 9 pm
Hope all Indians ensure to join in
Hope all Indians also create a fabulous Naad at 5 pm, as asked for by PM Modi, by coming out on our balconies or rooftops to clap our hands, ring bells, or clang thalis, to pay tribute to the selfless workers who are tirelessly working for us in these trying times
