Hello good people! How have you been?

Please, don't forget to keep social distancing, wash your hands, keep wearing a mask while going outside, and keep exercising to increase your body's immunity.
Well, now is the second month of the lockdown that make us have to stay at home in order to reduce the spread of the corona virus.
I hope all of you take your parts in reducing its spread, cause the success against this corona virus is depend on us.
According to the latest report May, 21 2020. Globally corona virus has caused 5,101,473 infections, 329,903 death, and 2,033,559 recovers. This virus has spread to 188 countries around the world.
According to WHO, Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment. Older people, and those with underlying medical problems such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness.
The best way to prevent and slow down transmission is be well informed about the COVID-19 virus, the disease causes and how it spreads. Protect yourself and others from infection by washing your hands or using an alcohol-based rub frequently and not touching your face. The COVID-19 virus spreads primarily through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes, so it's important that you also practice respiratory etiquette (for example, by coughing into a flexed elbow).
At this time, there are no specific vaccines or treatments for COVID-19. However, there are many ongoing clinical trials evaluating potential treatments. WHO will continue to provide updated information as soon as clinical findings become available.
