The new normal

This new word combination is to define the kind of normalcy that we have right now. It means wearing face mask, face shield, having alcohol in our pockets, wipes or paper napkins, social distancing while in public, etc. At home, we need to have disinfectant, a bottle of alcohol, soap, etc. We need to spray disinfectant or wipe with alcohol on all the things that we bring into the house, wash your hands with plenty of soap and water, etc., and change your clothes upon reaching home. Never mind if you need to do laundry everyday. If you feel something itchy near your eyes, ears and nostrils, avoid touching them. Virus could enter from there.

The World Health Organization said that to avoid getting the virus, we need to have a face shield and mask and observe distance while in public places. Also, some experts said that the virus could also be airborne, hence a need to have face shield. Here in our country, one could face fines or imprisonment or both if caught in public violating the rule.

It is also necessary that we boost our immune system. We should have the right kind of foods and vegetables on the table. If we take them regularly on our meals then we are boosting our immune system and this is enough. It will help our body to fight the virus. If for some reasons we can’t have those foods and vegetables on our regular meals, we need to buy vitamins and other food supplements from the drugstore.

All of us need to survive. We have to find ways and means to provide for our family. We need to accept the NEW NORMAL. We have to consider that the virus live with us. It is anywhere. Don’t be stressed, it will weaken your immune system. Just follow what is being mandated. They are the experts. We just hope this will be over but not in a year’s time.
