Since every citizen knows that COVID-19 is spreading steadily, we can stop it from spreading further only by staying indoors and maintaining social distancing whenever we move out of our houses. It is advisable to stay away from others whenever one feels like having symptoms of the disease to prevent its further spread among family members and others. Social distancing is very important for the people who are at higher risk of getting sick,” he added.
