With number of festivals like Navratri, Diwali and Christmas lined up in the upcoming months, it is of utmost importance to celebrate these festivals with necessary precautions in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. One cannot forget that the pandemic is still not completely under control and even slight negligence in following the precautions issued by the healthcare facilities can cause a massive rise in the COVID-19 cases.
It is best advised to enjoy the festivities by staying home and maintaining social-distance. In most places, public programmes having a possibility of crowding are restricted by the government however people may still visit their loved-ones to enjoy the festivals. If you are going out to meet people, safety instructions should be thoroughly followed to protect yourself as well as others. In such tiring times, it is necessary to think about self-safety as well as community-safety.
Pathkind Pathology Labs advises everyone to follow these safety guidelines while celebrating the upcoming festivals to avoid any complications:
Celebrating festivals is an important part of our culture but it has become the need of the hour to celebrate them while following the social-distancing norms. COVID-19 has swept the entire globe by its deadly effects hence regular following of safe hygiene practices has become the new normal.
Precautions to be followed after attending festivities/gatherings:
It is an established fact that COVID-19 symptoms are seen around 12-14 days after the first contact with the coronavirus. So, there are chances that after attending small gatherings, people may get infected. If you have recently attended any celebration or gathering and are showing any symptoms of COVID-19 seek medical help as soon as possible.
There are high chances that people may get infected with COVID-19 virus after indulging in festival celebrations with group of people as people come in contact with each other. Make sure you know the full range of COVID-19 symptoms. Stay home and self-isolate yourself immediately if your body is showing even slight symptoms. Inform the people who you’ve been in contact with to avoid more COVID-19 cases.
