Now that the World Health Organization has declared the SARS-COV-2 virus that causes the COVID-19 infection a global pandemic, every individual has a role to play in “social distancing,” rigorous hand washing, and appropriate health practices to ensure the disease is contained or mitigated to the maximum degree possible.
As President Donald Trump said in his televised address to the nation announcing a 30-day moratorium on flights from the European Union, “Each of us has a role to play in defeating this virus. Wash your hands, clean often-used surfaces, cover your face and mouth if you sneeze or cough, and most of all, if you are sick or not feeling well, stay home.”
