Covid 19 is a viral infection caused by SARS-CoV-2. They have the capability of causing lower respiratory tract infections. If you are alert about corona, you may already know about its transmission. Although it is said to be transmitted by respiratory droplets, there is a higher probability of aerosol transmission as well. So wherever you are what ever you do, you are in risk of infecting with this minute devil. But you can very easily lower the risk and run away from this devil by simply following the below given guidelines.
You are very likely to get caught with COVID 19 via eyes, nose and mouth. If you do not stay 1 meter apart from the infected person and if you have close contacts with him/her, you are definitely succeptible to get infected with SARS-CoV-2 virus. But how can we recognize the infected person? You may be that infected person. The person sits next to you while you are reading this may be that infected person. You may be asymptomatic or presymptomatic and so you cannot recognize even your infection. So at first, as a preventive measure, don't think that you are impermeable to Corona and act smart by not obeying the given guidelines. That is for the betterment of you and for the betterment of person next to you.
Day by day the number of infected people increases. That means day by day, the possibility of infecting you with this particular virus increases. The reason for saying so is increasing the number of infected people is directly proportional to the number of virus that evolve around you.
Eventhough you get tired of hearing same thing again and again, we cannot stop talking about this topic, because we have the tendency of infecting with SARS-CoV-2 virus than any other day.
Just by simply touching an object touched by an infectted person, you will get contaminated with the virus. Even speaking with such person without keeping required 1 meter of distance in between you two, you will get infected.
