Government officials in Sweden announced this week that the government expects to maintain its mild restrictions on gatherings “for at least another year” to mitigate the spread of COVID-19.
HERD IMMUNITY IS A NECESSARY OPTION TO COMBAT THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC. The COVID-19 disease was declared a global pandemic by the WHO on March 11, 2020.
COVID-19 is caused by the spread of the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2. Its spread has proven extremely challenging to control and the health impacts across the globe have been devastating and on the rise. Currently the global impact on individual health, healthcare systems, and economic markets is expected to grow and may ultimately dwarf that of any other modern epidemic. Government Orders Alone Didn’t Close the Economy. They Probably Can’t Reopen It.

I have no desire to be repatriated right now. I feel this with visceral certainty while watching my six month old daughter sitting on a rug in our bedroom, happily chewing on the limbs of a teddy bear. My husband sits next to her, savoring his morning coffee in front of the television, listening to the latest coronavirus updates in Wolof and French on TFM, a major Senegalese news outlet. I Work in a Grocery Store; Don't Call Me a Hero.
Once we were all gathered in the back, seated on overturned milk crates, my boss removed a folded-up piece of paper from his pocket and began to read a letter from our company’s management that thanked us, presumptively, for our “confidence and steadiness” and offered our store a bonus.
He quoted a customer who called our efforts “a lifeline.” Before the close of the meeting, my boss led us in a round of applause for our own hard work and dauntlessness.

Hand drying. Product Review Electric hand dryers have a lower carbon footprint and save resources compared to paper towels, but COVID-19 has changed how we view these products. by Brent Ehrlich Washing hands properly is one of the primary ways of controlling the spread SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19.
Drying hands properly is also important, as wet hands are more likely to provide an avenue for spreading pathogens. Yet even this seemingly simple act has reignited a contentious issue: what is the best way to dry your hands after hand washing?
