Daily Habits You Should Practice To Avoid Being Sick

​It is vital to take care of oneself— not just when we are already sick, but also when we are not. No one likes to be sick, especially during the pandemic. Maintaining healthiness, either physical or mental, should always be our top priority.

Always Practice Handwashing
Washing your hands is the first line of defense for preventive care. Frequently wash your hands with warm water and soap. You should not just wash your hands when it looks dirty, but also before and after meals. If you don't have any access, you can use an alcohol-based sanitizer containing 60% alcohol.

Social Distancing
When someone near you is sick, avoid having close contact with that person. So you won't get ill and limit the spread of the disease. Try to have a spare room in your home as a designation for the sick person to recover.

Consider alternative communication with the person such as Skype call or FaceTime. Remember to disinfect objects and surfaces and practice social distancing.

If you are the one who is sick, it is better to stay at home to limit your interaction with others. If possible, do not go to work and use any public transportation.

Covering Yourself When Sneezing Or Coughing
Sneezing and coughing can spread germs from your body into the air. If you are sick, try to wear a facemask or use a tissue. If it is not available, cough into your elbow instead. Wash or hands after or use hand sanitizer if handwashing is not possible.

Do Not Touch Your Face
It would be best if you practiced avoiding touching your face. If you have hand germs and rub them on your eye or brush on your nose, you're contracting illness with your sinuses, throat, and lungs. Do not touch your face to avoid germ infiltration.

Conclusion
Being healthy should always be our priority in everything. Living a life with less illness will help everyone.  To be prepared for illness, get health insurance. This is your safeguard when you catch a disease, and it will help you cover up your expenses.
