How To Stay Safe From COVID-19 Without Sacrificing Fun At Home
Tips on Staying COVID-19 FREE
As we all know most countries in the world are now suffering from Coronavirus disease, that’s the COVID-19 pandemic or Wuhan virus as it was originally known – no offense meant! What’s really scaring people are the high daily death rates reported in many countries. In line with this crazy situation, fighting over toilet roll and pasta, every nation’s government is doing their best to provide precautionary measures for their people.
And here at Playasia, we also want to take make sure everyone is staying safe, and for those going through isolation or lockdowns, keeping sane. So we’ve put together a few tips for our readers and customers. But first, let us take a few seconds to learn what is COVID- 19?
What is Coronavirus disease or COVID-19?
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is a new strain of the virus that mutated from bats, wait a minute… it’s not been proven yet, some say by eating bat soup and others say leaked from a lab… wait… no that’s not right either. What we do know is that it was discovered in 2019 and has not been previously identified in humans, yes that’s it!
Coronaviruses are zoonotic, meaning they are transmitted between animals and people. Sounds nasty right. Detailed investigations found that SARS-CoV was transmitted from civet cats to humans and MERS-CoV from dromedary camels to humans. Wow, trips to the zoo could be dangerous yikes! Several known coronaviruses are circulating in animals that have not yet infected humans.
Common signs of infection include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, shortness of breath and breathing difficulties. In more severe cases, the infection can cause pneumonia, severe acute respiratory syndrome, kidney failure and even death.

Tips to stay COVID-free
We listed some basic and easy tips for everyone to keep yourself COVID-free at the same time to enjoy the convenience of your home!
1. Proper and frequent Handwashing
One of the best ways to prevent any illness is proper hygiene. Yes! make sure to wash your hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.
2. Always Bring Alcohol and Hand Sanitizer
In case, you are outside and no available water and soap, you can use alcohol and hand sanitizer, to kill the bacteria you might get from touching things that are already touched by other persons (doorknobs, hand grills on public vehicles and etc.)
3. Always wear a mask
One of the ways to get infected by the virus is by the sneeze or cough of infected individuals. And you don’t know who’s infected or not in public places. Make sure to wear a mask especially when going outdoors.
a. Move away from people who are coughing
Again, no one knows who’s the carrier of the virus or whose infected. So move away from people who are sneezing and coughing.
b. Cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing.
You can use a tissue/ your sleeves to cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing.
4. Eat Healthy and well-cooked meals
One of the best shields for any illness is eating healthy and well-cooked meals.
5. Avoid staying outdoors (make sure to make a distance at least one meter to any person outdoors)
If you are outdoors, make sure to maintain at least a one-meter distance to the person before and next to you.
6. Make sure to properly dispose of used tissues and mask after using.
To prevent the spread of the virus, we should learn to properly dispose our waste.
7. Home Quarantine (Stay at Home but don’t sacrifice the fun!)
The best remedy is to stay at home so you can prevent contact from other persons who we don’t know might be a carrier or infected by the virus. Of course, staying at home might be boring and tiring but why not make it fun by playing? Playing what? Video games? Aren’t shipping items canceled or delayed? Why not go digital? How? All you have to do is purchase the digital cards for your chosen game here at Playasia.
