Hi dear

I would you to stay at home most of the time, if you want to go outside then use mask and gloves and keep a distance atleast 2m with anyone, don't go outside without a reason. Make a list which you need and go out for only one time and bring all needy thingswhich you have listed, wash your hands frequently or use sanitizer frequently and avoid to touch eyes, nose or mouth. Follow the rules made by the government in the beneficial of us and country seriously and increase your awareness about it:) take care.

Beta, it's completely normal to feel scared with the rising cases and people's negligence. Generally, coronavirus symptoms can show up anywhere from 2 to 14 days after exposure, though most people start feeling unwell within 5-6 days.

To stay safe, please continue to be very careful. Always wear a well-fitted mask when stepping out, and ensure everyone in the family does too. Wash hands frequently with soap and water, or use a sanitizer. Try to avoid crowded places as much as possible, even if shops are open; maintain distance when you must go out. Focus on boosting your family's immunity with healthy home-cooked meals, adequate rest, and hydration. Your safety and your family's safety are paramount, so minimize unnecessary outings and practice these precautions diligently.
