2. List the items to buy

*WHEN YOU ARE OUTSIDE*
1. Do not stay outside more than 40 minutes
2. Keep your distance from others (1 meter)
3. Speak only when is needed
4. Decide which item to buy and grab it without hesitation (Avoid taking and putting back again)
5. Give the prepared plastic bag to put in the change, please do not directly touch the money
*WHEN YOU ARE BACK AT HOME*
1. Expose items that cannot be washed under the sun
2. Expose all vehicle keys and locks under the sun
3. Wash hands with soap
4. Wash washable items including money with soap and dry them
5. Discard plastic bags

*FINAL PHASE*
1. Wash your feet with soap before entering the house
2. Wash and clean the entire body with soap and shampoo
3. Dry your body
4. Drink a glass of warm water.
The CoronaVirus is now at the *community transmission* phase. It means that there are (unknown) infected persons within our neighborhoods that are now infecting other people. It means that they have the infection but not showing clinical symptoms.
Here are my thoughts:
As we go forward, we must now *consider everybody around us as already infected*. This concept now must be your daily guiding thoughts on how to protect yourself when interacting with anybody outside your household especially neighbours. *Don’t assume anybody is as sensible as you’ve been*. This is perhaps the only time, in modern history, to arrogantly consider yourself smarter than everyone around you, by judiciously doing *all you must* to stay safe.
This is also the time to begin to routinely wear *facemasks* as part of your clothing especially when stepping out of your house.
* Disinfect facemask before & after use
* Wash hands regularly with soap + water despite use of facemask
* Use hand sanitizer despite use of facemask
* Don’t touch your face (mouth, nose, ears) … unless with washed hands
* Obey other cautionary protocols
Facemasks are mostly unavailvable or very expensive. So you can *improvise* using a bandanna, large handkerchiefs, turtlenecks (cut off) etc. The aim is to prevent droplets (from a cough or sneeze) of an infected person from entering your nostrils.
Another key point is to regularly discuss and remind your *household members to follow all guidelines too*. You’re responsible for each other. Your family’s health lies on weakest link, so keep everyone strong.
*#TakeResponsibility*
*#StayAlive*
*May God protect us* ?
