BUSINESS COMMUNICATION - 1 Assignment 1 25th July 2020 By Aditya Dutt Mishra SPM PDPU 2020-22 QUESTION 1: DO’s and DON’T’S ALL INDIA INSTITUE OF MEDICAL SCIENCE OFFICIAL NOTICE COVID-19, a global pandemic that has affected more than 15,500,000 people across the globe and has turned out to be a deadly virus that threatens the existence of human race, major reason for this is that there is no vaccine for the virus yet and so for now the best way to stay safe is to follow all the necessary precautions. Currently in India the cases have been increasing drastically with about 45,000 cases being reported daily. Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has advised people to take precautionary measures to stay safe. We request everyone to not panic, even though the number of cases are going up most cases are not serious, our country has one the best recovery rate in the world. We can fight the virus together. With all the information about the new, COVID-19 we cannot help but feel overwhelmed about what we should and should not be doing today. Here are some do’s and don’ts from Aditya Mishra, CMO at AIIMS that you can follow to protect yourself from the virus. DO’S: Do always wear a cloth covering your mouth when you are not at home. This is meant more to protect others from your droplets than to protect you. Do wash your hands before you wear a mask and only touch the ear loops. Do wash and sanitize everything especially vegetables and food items. Vegetables are the major cause of COVID spreading throughout India. Do self-quarantine yourself for 14 days if you come in contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19. Do stay informed of the situation as events and advisories are rapidly evolving, for example N95 masks which were considered as effective are no longer advised. Simple 3-layer masks made at home are sufficient. Do wash your hands regularly, especially before you eat. If you can’t wash your hands then use hand sanitizer. Do cover your sneeze or cough with your elbow and not your hands. Do maintain social distancing, cancel unnecessary medical appointments, parties as they can interfere with social distancing. Do look for symptoms like difficulty in breathing, headache, fever greater than 102F and seek medical care immediately if you develop any of these symptoms. Do buy 40-50 days of supply for food and other necessary things as we don’t want to go out in crowded public places to resupply. Do wipe all surfaces that you come in contact with, sanitize mobile screens, door handles, railings and knobs that are frequently touched. Do work from home and only go to work physically if it is absolutely required. Do protect your immune system by eating a balanced diet, exercise regularly as we are staying at home and physical activity is minimum. DON’T’S: Don’t ignore necessary precautions such as face masks and social distancing, use a tightly fitting cloth. Don’t panic, it’s not a ‘panic-demic’ but don’t take this lightly either. Emotional contagion that is spread of fear and panic is more contagious than the virus itself. Don’t travel within or outside the country. Don’t touch your mouth, eyes, nose without washing your hands. Don’t meet anyone outside your house unless it is necessary and if you do avoid shaking hands or giving hugs. Don’t use vegetables or any other food item that you brought for at least 5 days as the virus can stay active on plastic surface for about 5 days. Don’t share utensils with others. Don’t treat the lockdown as a vacation, always stay at home and avoid public places such as gyms, malls, theatres. Don’t call for testing if you don’t have the specific symptoms related to COVID-19 to avoid unnecessary outside contact. Don’t wear a mask unless you’re sick, mask is used for the protection of other from you. Leave the mask for those who really need them. Don’t reach for antibiotics, you may be tempted to use them if you are ill. They only help in case of bacterial infection. Don’t take COVID-19 lightly by thinking that it only affects elder people You can keep yourself and others around you safe by following these instructions and follow the guidelines set by government strictly. We have released various phone numbers for government testing labs that you can contact if you develop any symptoms. Take care and stay safe.
