How to Stay Safe During COVID-19
​Ever since COVID-19 has spread worldwide, people have been figuring out the best ways to keep themselves, their loved ones, and strangers safe. It can be tricky to know what’s right and what’s not, especially with the amount of information out there, but fortunately, there are some simple rules to follow to keep safe - here they are. 

​Wear Your Mask Properly 

​Most people understand to wear a mask by now, but are you wearing it properly? Your face covering should fully cover your mouth and nose and sit snugly under your chin. If it’s too loose or doesn’t cover your nose, then particles can escape, increasing the chance of spreading the virus. Have a look for some high-quality masks that fit right and provide proper protection for when you’re out and about.

​Get Tested 

​The more people get tested, the safer the population is as a whole, so take the opportunity as soon as you can. Don’t worry about pain or discomfort, as the covid testing process is quite simple and quick – all it takes is a swab in your throat and up your nose. It’s better to know for sure that you’re not spreading it, so ensure you book your test with Ambulnz! 

​Go Out Only for Essentials

​While it might be tempting to pop out for bits of shopping multiple times a day, that only increases your chance of picking up the virus and spreading it. Instead, limit your outings for essentials, and try to make them as quick as possible.

​Get Your Shopping Delivered 

​If you or someone you live with is in the vulnerable category, then it’s a good idea to get your shopping delivered rather than go out for it. There are plenty of grocery stores willing to deliver, and you can always get a takeout delivery on the days you don’t want to cook!

​Virtual Calls

​Social interaction has taken a huge hit since the spread of the virus, and as a result, many people are feeling sad and lonely. To combat this, you should engage in virtual calls with your friends and family. Whether it’s every day or just once a week, that bit of interaction can prevent you from slipping deeper into isolation.

​Take Vitamins 

​Vitamins won’t fully prevent COVID, but they do strengthen your immune system, helping you fight off any diseases in your body. Plus, taking a few vitamins each day can’t hurt! There are plenty of great multivitamins out there to make getting everything you need much easier, but you should first talk to your doctor before taking anything new. 

​Clean, Clean, Clean 

​The best way to prevent COVID 19 is to clean. Clean yourself, your hands, your clothes, and your house regularly to get rid of any germs that may linger. Carrying hand sanitizer is a wise habit to get into, but don’t substitute washing your hands with warm water and soap for it! 
 
Get into a routine of wiping down your surfaces, door handles, and everyday items more often to ensure you’ve not brought the virus home with you. 
 
Everyone is still getting used to this new way of living, so don’t worry if you struggle at first. By following these simple rules, you’ll dramatically decrease the likelihood of catching the virus.

We decided to start double masking to make sure we stay safe until we get vaccinated
