Below are precautions that need to be carried out to protect yourself from extracting Coronavirus during the trip:

• Avoid any contact with people who are ill
• Do not go to any public gatherings
• Make sure to stay a distance of six feet from other people. Social distancing can help stop the spread of Coronavirus
• Do not touch your eyes, mouth or nose when your hands seem dirty and have not been washed in quite some time
• Wash your hands for at least 20 seconds with soap every 30-50 minutes to stay clean
• Keep a hand-sanitizer in your handbag or pocket every time you are out of the home. The sanitizer must contain 60-95% of alcohol
• Do not forget to wash or sanitize your hand after using the restroom, sneezing, coughing, and before eating anything. You need to be more careful in public places.
• Once you return from a trip, monitor your health and keep a note of any sickness symptoms for at least 14 days

Once a person suffers from fever (100.4 degrees F or higher), dry cough or shortening of breath, they must:

• Seek a piece of medical advice from your doctor and inform him about your recent travel so that he can ask you to undergo a certain Coronavirus screening test
• Avoid touching others, even your kids or spouse
• Stay home as much as possible (unless you are admitted to a hospital in case of positive Coronavirus test). It’s your responsibility as a responsible citizen to keep others safe!

Medical experts have recommended that people above ’60s and those with underlying health issues should avoid travelling, especially cruise-ship travel, as they have strong chances of contracting the virus.
