Good hygiene
By far the best way to prevent the spread of the virus is to maintain good hygiene practices. If you are regularly washing your hands and carrying a hand sanitizer with you, then you’ll be on the right track towards avoiding catching the virus yourself. As a general rule, you should avoid touching your face, especially when you’re out in public -- that is how the virus will enter your body. This measure isn’t just for your benefit, but for everyone else’s too.
Avoid the crowds
People are rightly worried about the coronavirus, but it’s important to remember that the current measures are in place as a way to contain the virus. It’s a precautionary step. You can further protect yourself by staying away from places that have crowds of people, ideally keeping at least one metre away.
Have fun in the hotel
Finally, during these are stressful times, it’s important to stay mentally well. You can have a fun and relaxing time in your hotel room by playing games, watching television, and calling loved ones.
