Explanation:
What is social distancing?
Social distancing are practices implemented by public health officials to keep contagious diseases from spreading. The measures are aimed at trying to cut down the amount of virus spreading around, and ultimately protect those most vulnerable, including the elderly and people with weakened immune systems.
What measures have been taken?
Governments have closed borders, and millions of workers and students have been ordered to stay home. Most of the states in India ordered schools, offices, cinemas to shut down to prevent the spread of coronavirus, which is in a way a strategy to encourage social distancing. And experts also recommend people try to stay at least 6 feet (about 2 meters) away from each other.
Why 6 feet?
Experts believe the virus is mainly spread through droplets that come out of your mouth and nose. When an infected person speaks or exhales or coughs or sneezes, the droplets travel about 3 to 6 feet (1 to 2 meters) before gravity pulls them to the ground. It's important to try to block coughs or sneezes with a tissue or your sleeve, so as to not send those droplet flying directly toward someone nearby.
Can one go outside at all?
Yes, with some exceptions. And the guidelines vary based on where one lives. People who have coughs and sneezes should stay home as much as possible, and call ahead to the doctor's office if they're planning to get their illness checked. People who have confirmed coronavirus illness should stay home, as should those who were in close contact with a confirmed case.
What about social gatherings?
The CDC on Sunday recommended that for the next eight weeks, organizers put off events that would draw at least 50 people. On Monday, the number was reduced to 10. That could ice a lot of weddings, family reunions and birthday parties.
