      SELF-QUARANTINE

         To begin with, self-quarantine means staying in your home and not leaving for 14 days. Moreover, it also means do not allow visitors into your home or avoid mass gathering. In fact, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) explain that the practice of a quarantine specifically involves the separation of a person or group of people. Reasonably, people who believed to have been exposed to a communicable disease but not yet symptomatic, to prevent the possible spread of the communicable disease. In order to reduce the spread of covid-19, it is very important to do self-quarantine. These are some simple ways to do self-quarantine in order to prevent covid-19.

In the first place, don't leave your house unless absolutely necessary. Certainly,  people who are able to go outside are medical officer.You have to stay online on your phone or laptop for work or school.You need to restrict your activities outside of your home, including going to school, work, public areas or using public transportation. In brief, you need to avoid mass gathering. If possible, stay in a separate room and use a separate bathroom to protect your family. While there are no reports of transmission of the new coronavirus to pets, it's recommended that you limit contact with animals until more is known about the virus. This is not only just for protecting your own self but also the other selves. Pay attention to your health and others by staying at your home. 

In the second place, wash your hands often. For instance, wash your hands after blowing your nose, sneezing or coughing. Frequently, clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water. It is important to wash your hands with soup.  A chemistry professor, Palli Thordarson mentions why soap is so effective. He said, the soap dissolves the fat membrane and the virus falls apart like a house of cards and 'dies', or rather, we should say it becomes inactive as viruses aren’t really alive. Hands touch many surfaces and can pick up viruses. Once contaminated, hands can transfer the virus to your eyes, nose or mouth. In other words, avoid touching your face.

Last but not least, monitor your symptoms. Take your temperature to check for a fever. In addition, take note if you're beginning to cough or experiencing shortness of breath. You may or may not experience covid-19 symptoms (coughing, fever and shortness of breath) during your quarantine. Next, if you do begin experiencing symptoms you need to do these things such as wear a mask when you're around people or use common spaces in your home, cover your coughs and sneezes, wash your hands afterward, contact your health care provider or use telemedicine to seek guidance from home.
