    This Coronavirus is getting out of hand and scaring a lot of people. The stock market going down, housing market going down. There are also low test kits for people that may have symptoms, however the celebrities are able to get them quick. So, we have to keep ourselves clean and do what this post says. We have to wash our hands, keep our hands off our face and stay away from people that are sick.

    This all great advice.  I can’t believe that now we have to teach people how to “properly” wash their hands.  But, this will be for the greater good.

    Did you find any information on how warm the water should be when you are washing your hands?  Maybe antibacterial soap is not really necessary, I have always been of the mind that you should wash your hands under very warm water, as hot as you can stand it. 

    I hope that this pandemic will pass very soon and I think if we all do our part and look out for not only ourselves but for others, it will pass sooner.

    Thank you again for the information.

    • Alyce says:

      Hi, The temperature of the water should not make it any more or less effective. Just make sure to scrub effectively with soap for at least 20 seconds.

    Thank you for sharing all of these handy resources all on a single page. This disease does seem to be getting out of control but with resources like this page ensuring that we are getting the right information from the official sources, I am sure we will all come out of this better. I think avoiding public places and staying at home as much as possible is key to containing this and buying supplies online is probably better now than visiting the local supermarkets. Here’s wishing we get out of this as soon as possible as everyone is already feeling the impact from the closure of events to the huge drop on the share markets worldwide. Thanks again for sharing!

    • Alyce says:

      Hi Steve, Social distancing is definitely being recommended as a way to slow the spread of the coronavirus. It’s a shame that so many wonderful events and gatherings are having to be cancelled, but that will ultimately help to save lives, so it is a wise decision to do so.

      Hopefully the worldwide response from governments will help to quickly stop the spread of the coronavirus, but we also need to help out by making smart individual choices as well.

    Hi There,

    This is a well-times website and well written, it’s important more people read this even though we have no idea at this stage where all this is going. Your website I could say definitely slows the virus down if people take action and that is what is needed for us to bide time to understand more about it and search for a cure.  I enjoyed reading your website well done.

    These are great tips, thank you very much!

    These days we really have to strengthen our own defenses by taking lots vitamin C, thoroughly washing our hands and avoiding close contact. The virus has spread globally and recently there have been an ourbreak here in Canada, a few minutes from where I live.

    Hi! This virus is really beating us right now. like you said – wash your hands, and use hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% of alcohol is a must – it won’t kill viruses, but it will ease a growth of it. I have couple of sanitizers at my home, but well they contain 95% alcohol. Stay away from crowds, don’t shake hands or hug, prevention is the best option. Loved your article,

    Cheers,

    Thank you for this post;  this is great advice When everyone is attempting to come to terms and understand what is now a Pandemic.  It is not only the measure that you have offered  that are both germane  and helpful but you have also provided valuable context in the opening of the post.  There is so much conflicting information out there at the moment that it is hugely helpful to find some simple and eminently sensible answers to the issues and challenges that we are all facing.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    While it’s not something to take lightly, we do need to calm down. People are panicked and hoarding water, disinfectant, toilet paper, among other things. Everywhere you go, there are empty shelves. We have to stop the madness.

    Experts said they expect a vaccine in no less than a year from now. Hopefully, the situation will improve with the warmer temperatures of the following months. We don’t know for sure since this virus is so recent.

    It’s not the end of the world. We just need to take precaution and we’ll be fine. We’ll have to wait to see what happens. Thanks for sharing.

    • Alyce says:

      Our systems are definitely not prepared for too many people stocking up on essentials at once – even for minor events. Every time it snows in my hometown, the grocery stores all sell out of bread, milk, and eggs. Every. Single. Time. A lot of those empty shelves could be avoided if people would not panic during times like these. Sure, go ahead and buy an extra package of toilet paper, but perhaps don’t buy all of the available toilet paper at your local store.

  15. Gary says:

    Hi the virus is no like to me I’m older and my system isn’t what it used to be. I agree washing hands is one of the most if not the most important things we need to do. just to let you know you have a great looking website, and it should be doing very well thanks for the input, I will just stay home If I can.

    • Alyce says:

      Hi Gary, Thanks for your kind words about the website. I’m glad to hear that you are taking precautions to keep yourself safe from coronavirus and healthy!

  16. Alex Chivers says:

    Hi,  Very informative article.  We are in very worrying times I think and really hope this can all be over with.  What happens though is anyone’s guess.  For the post, you have covered most things I think so well done.  One tip you should see if you can improve your site speed seemed to be a bit slow loading up this post.

    • Alyce says:

      Hi Alex, Hopefully the COVID-19 coronavirus scare will pass soon, but it’s good to be prepared just in case. 

      Thanks for sharing your experience with the site loading time – I will look into it. 

  17. Eric says:

    This is a very comprehensive guide on how to stay safe during the coronavirus. My family and I went and bought lots of hand sanitizer. Although we were afraid we were going to run out, it’s a good thing we use very little at a time.

    Most of us have limited ourselves to how much we go out. But what I don’t get is why there is such a craze for toilet paper. My daughter works at Costco and she said most of the toilet paper section is all empty and so are food shelves.

    Thanks for listing all the resources as well as where I can get products if I do run out. My wife is just recovering from a liver resection, so we need to state extra vigilant in making sure that this illness stays out of our home.
