Sanitizers can also be used for this purpose but most medical practitioners consults people to use soap for cleaning of hands. It also implies to people to have bath daily with soap. Wear face covering masks. As we are aware about the ways this disease can spread out to from people to people through respiratory fluids like cough or sneezing, it is better for you to wear protective mask such as N95, N99 or the 3M masks that covers your mouth properly. Social distancing. The only way through which this disease can spread out to people at a faster rate is through people socializing their lives with other people. Thus governments of infected as well as certain non-infected countries have reduced the socializing activities in their countries. Activities like lockdown of cities, closure of public meeting places like parties, gyms, education institutes, commercial spaces and many more. Through this, BDM International is more concerned of students health and safety. Thus, according to government regulations closes the school as long as per the direction from government authority. As the world leaders and governments are taking every step to curb the infection spread out to other people we too at BDM International appeal to our students as well as their parents to take care of themselves and follow these basic method to stop the infection rate of the Corona Virus.
