#COVID19KE: Social Distancing is a strategy advised by experts aimed at slowing down the spread of COVID19 by limiting public gatherings. Ideally, we would be able to stop the virus from spreading entirely but we can’t do that right now. #KomeshaCorona #SpreadInfoNotPanic
#COVID19KE: Social Distancing has been proven as a way to help slow down the virus from spreading. It ensures that the severe cases get spread out over a longer period, and hospitals and healthcare workers are less overwhelmed on any given day. #KomeshaCorona #SpreadInfoNotPanic
#COVID19KE: Symptoms take an average of 5-14 days to appear, so it’s easy to spread well before someone starts feeling sick. Therefore, it means many people are spreading it while going about their daily lives as usual. #KomeshaCorona #SpreadInfoNotPanic
