Coronavirus is wreaking havoc all over the world. The second wave of coronavirus has proved to be more dangerous and infectious. Several states in India have gone under a lockdown or stricter covid restrictions to stop the chain of novel coronavirus in the country.
Administrations are urging people to stay inside their homes and follow Covid norms. However, people are forced to go outside for basic necessities like vegetables, milk, and grocery. In such conditions, there is always a risk of contracting the virus. The research report of Florida University claims that around 18% of Covid patients are infecting their families. Amid these critical conditions, America’s Center for Disease Control and Prevention has issued guidelines to prevent the spread of Covid.
