Coronavirus outbreak is a real thing and spreading at an enormous pace across the globe. While the government is doing its job of identifying and curing people, you, on the other hand, can contribute to curbing the spread.
Just in case if you have been sick in a while or your body is showing symptoms of coronavirus, then you must get yourself checked so you don’t become a transmitter of the virus.
