COVID-19 is now the world’s business, and it’s everyone’s responsibility to prevent the coronavirus from spreading.
To capture short attention spans, Google has teamed up with the World Health Organization (WHO) to share five rules of thumb that could help stave off the virus when practiced in the masses.
Do these five simple things to help stop coronavirus (COVID-19).

DO THE FIVE
1️⃣ HANDS: Wash them often
2️⃣ ELBOW: Cough into it
3️⃣ FACE: Don’t touch it
4️⃣ FEET: Stay more than 3ft (1m) apart
5️⃣ FEEL: Sick? Stay home

The guidelines remind you to “do the five,” which consists of the easy-to-remember one-liners, “HANDS: wash them often,” “ELBOW: cough into it,” “FACE: don’t touch it,” “FEET: stay more than three feet apart,” and “FEEL: sick? Stay home.”
Admittedly, they’re not as catchy as whatever song you hum along to washing your hands, but you’ll know exactly what action to take the next time you feel a cough coming.
