It's Scary!

This is scary!!!

??? ???? ????!

Please, stop traveling! Health is the real wealth. Everything else can be achieved, but not if you risk your health

???? ?????? ????? ??? ????????, ?????? ?? ????? ???????, ? ?? ?? ??? ???? ??????, ???? ??? ?? ????? ?????!

If you don't care about yourself, care about your loved ones and the other innocent souls!

?? ?? ??? ????? ?????, ????? ??? ?????? ?????? ? ??????? ??????? ??????!

Are you scared? We all are and we have to!

?? ??? ????? ????? ??????? ??????!

Even with a small percentage of risk chance that this virus might infect you and as a consequence it might damage your heart, lungs, and pause life-threating harm on the elderly, kids, people with diabetes and blood pressure, the idea itself is so scary!

??? ? ?? ???? ???? ??????? ????? ??? ????, ??? ???? ???? ????? ?????, ? ????? , ? ????? ???? ??????? ? ??????? ? ???????? ??????? ? ??? ???? ?? ??? ???????, ?? ???? ?????!

Yesterday, Washington State announced that the death rate of patients infected with Corona reached to 6! As someone who lived in that state for a period of seven years, I know that Washington has one of the best health systems across the states and the world, and when we learn that they couldn’t save those lives then we SHOULD all be concerned!

Never gamble your safety for a disease that has no drugs yet and to survive it, you will solely rely on your immune system and some ventilators!

?? ??????? ???????, ????? ??? ??? ???? ???? ??? ???? ??? ??????? ??? ????? ??????? ? ??? ????? ?????? ? ????????.

Be obsessed with handwashing!

Be obsessed with handwashing and encourage your kids and any elderly around you to do so! The virus could live up to 12 hours on metal substances and from 6 to 12 on pieces of clothes!

However, the good news is that

washing the hands well with soap and hot water before touching the eyes, the nose, and the mouth can save you!

?? ????? ???? ????, ? ?? ?????? ? ???? ???? ?????? ??? ??? ??? ????. ??????? ?? ?????? ??? ????? ??? ?? ???? ?????? ???? ?? ???? ? ??? ??? ?????? ?? ? ??? ?? ????!

????? ????? ?? ????? ?????? ?? ??? ??????? ?? ?????? ?? ??? ?????? ???? ?????? ?????? ? ???????, ??? ??????? ?????? ? ???? ? ?????.

In case, you cannot get access to soap and hot water, use hand sanitizers that are rich with alcohol frequently!

?? ??? ??? ???? ????? ?????? ? ???????, ?????? ???? ?????? ????? ??????? ????? ? ??????!

Avoid hugging and handshaking at all expenses!

This advice is mainly for you, Arabs and French people! I myself need to stop doing that!

?????? ????????, ? ?????? ???? ??? ?????. ???? ???? ????? ? ?????????. ??? ???? ???? ?? ???? ???? ??? ?????? ?? ???!

Did you watch how one of the German ministers avoided a handshake with the German Chancellor Angela Merkel when they met to discuss the consequences of the terror attack yesterday?

?? ????? ??? ?? ??? ????? ??????? ??? ?????? ?????? ?????? ????? ??????? ??????? ????? ????? ???????? ???? ??? ?? ??? ?????????? ?? ??????? ??? ????

None of them has perceived that act as an offense, but it implies a message that we should all take it into account!

It says: Avoid handshaking!

?? ??? ???? ??? ??????? ???? ???? ? ???? ?????, ?? ??????? ??? ??? ???? ?????? ????? ????? ???? ??? ??????... ?????? ????????!

Some need surgical masks more than you!

Please, don’t buy all of the surgical masks and make the market runs short of them!

Remember: Health workers, infected patients, and patients with symptoms need them the most!

???? ?? ?????? ???? ??????? ? ?????? ???? ??? ?? ???? ?????? ?????, ???????? ? ???????? ? ?????????, ? ???????? ? ?????? ? ?? ??? ?? ????? ?????!

Take all the necessary precautions in case of a doubt!

If you doubt that you were encountered with a potential case, make sure to isolate yourself and be the reason to protect your loved ones and other innocent humans!

?? ????? ???? ??? ????? ?? ??? ?? ????? ?????? ?? ??? ??, ? ?? ????? ?????, ???? ???? ????, ? ?? ???? ?? ????? ?????? ? ????? ??? ?????!

Make cleaning public surfaces a habit!

Make sure to use Clorox bleach to clean any surface if it is expected to be used by multiple people (students, employees...etc) who would come into contact with others! Make that a habit!

?????? ???????? ?????? ?? ??? ??? ? ???? ????????? ?? ??? ??????, ????????? ? ????????!

Yes, I’m a little germophobic, but those who know what I had experienced in the past with one of the most precious souls to my heart should excuse me!

???, ?? ???? ??? ?????? ?? ????????, ??? ??????? ?? ???? ???? ? ??? ?? ??????? ? ?????? ??? ??? ???? ??????? ??? ????!

You might look weird making sure cleaning every public surface desk at work or school you use, but when you keep doing so others will follow you and do the same!

???, ?? ???? ????? ? ??? ????? ?????? ?? ??? ???????, ??? ????? ????? ?? ??? ???? ?????? ???? ????? ????!

Just recall how regular cold symptoms would make one feel! it is not fun at all!

??? ?????? ?? ????? ????? ? ??????????, ????? ?? ?????!

Remember: This virus is still mysterious! Japan announced that a recovered patient tested positive again and yesterday Texas found the same with a previously recovered patient!

??????: ??? ??????? ?????? ???. ??????? ???? ? ????? ????? ????? ?? ??? ?????? ????? ?? ???? ??? ?????? ?????!

Taking precautions is different from becoming a racist!

I think now, we all should be germophobic, but please don't mix that with becoming a racist to innocent people! Be mindful of your actions and reactions. We don't need to hurt others and end up feeling so bad about ourselves and our misjudgments.

It takes a village!

In Quebec, this week is the Spring break week and many kids are traveling with their parents to different parts of the world.

This means setting in closed crowded places for long hours!

I really wish that they come back home safe and sound! I cannot have them change their minds, but I am going to homeschool my daughter for at least two weeks after this break. I wish all the parents take the same precautionary measure! In each class, we have a minimum of 15 students! I cannot imagine any harm happening to them!

Also, I am entertaining the idea of canceling my workshop event and preparing an online one that will be accessible to all and guarantee each one's safety.

????, ??? ???? ???? ?? ?????, ???? ????? ??????? ?????? ??? ????, ? ??????? ? ????? ????? ?????? ??? ??? ???????? ????? ???????!

Let's all avoid all unnecessary crowds and gatherings and help our health system workers and surveillance contain the spread of this respiratory virus. Indeed, it takes a village!

????? ????? ????? ??????? ????????, ???????? ????? ?????? ? ????? ??????? ?????? ?? ?????? ??????? ??????? ? ??????? ??? ???????!

Prevention is better than cure!

??????? ??? ?? ??????!

Please, add any advice and recommendation that I missed to include!

???? ?????? ?? ?????, ?? ?????? ?? ??? ??????!

I wish safety for all!

????? ??????? ??????

Please share! You might be a reason for saving a soul!
