COVID-19 is a rapidly transmitting infectious disease caused by a coronavirus. Based on research and studies so far, the known mediums of the spread of COVID-19 are through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose when an infected person coughs or sneezes. The virus enters the body via a person’s nose, mouth, and/or eyes. Some recent studies even suggest that the virus may even be airborne and can spread through fine infected droplets that remain suspended in the air in closed air-conditioned environments of spaces like workplaces, cars, cabs, buses, shopping malls, and theatres due to the absence of cross-ventilation, even if people are not in direct contact with an infected person.
So far, the factors that are known to help prevent the transmission of COVID-19 amongst people may include:
● Staying at home: It is suggested to stay at home, especially for people below the age of 5 years or above the age of 60 years, and people who suffer from comorbidities/chronic ailments. However, in today’s time, it is highly recommended that anybody and everybody should stay indoors except for unavoidable situations. ● Avoid visitors/visiting people. ● Hand & Face Hygiene: Washing your hands and face at regular intervals with soap and water is said to wash off any germs/droplets you may be carrying. ● Face Cover: Wearing an effective face mask/cover at all times to prevent any contact. ● Social distancing: To keep a distance of a minimum of 6 feet. ● Home Hygiene: Cleaning the frequently touched surfaces with disinfectant regularly. ● Health & Diet: Ensuring proper nutrition through a balanced diet, maintaining hydration, consuming fresh fruits and juices for boosting immunity, intaking supplements that are proven to support one’s health. ● Physical Activity: Daily exercise and meditation are recommended to keep one’s body active and calm.
Most commonly known symptoms of COVID-19 include:
● Dry cough/sore throat ● Cold/congestion/runny nose ● Fever or chills ● Fatigue/tiredness ● Muscle/body aches or headache ● Shortness of breath or difficulty breathing ● Loss of appetite/taste/smell
While isolating with mild symptoms should do the trick unless you’re tested positive. However, you should closely monitor your symptoms regularly and observe if you feel anything suspicious about your health. Apart from mild symptoms, if you additionally notice any of the below mentioned things, you should seek emergency medical care immediately:
● Worsening shortness of breath ● Oxygen saturation below 95% ● Bluish lips or face ● A persistent temperature of more than 101F for 3 days or more ● Persistent pain/pressure in the chest ● Inability to wake or stay awake
Energy-Rich foods: These include cereals (wheat, rice, maize, etc), fats/oils, sugars. ● Bodybuilding foods: These include pulses (all dals, beans, legumes), animal foods (eggs, meat, poultry, fish), milk and milk products. ● Protective foods: These include seasonal fruits and vegetables (dark green leafy, yellow and orange colored, citrus, and other fruits). ● Supplements/Immunity Boosters: Vitamin A, vitamin E, vitamin C, minerals such as zinc, copper, iron, selenium are known to influence the immune responses. Besides off-the-counter boosters, you can even try natural and herbal products.
As of 21st April 2021, Mumbai has had a total of 5,94,059 cases with approximately 83,937 active cases. While the different parts of the country are carrying out their vaccine drives, Mumbai’s vaccination drive has come to a halt. Earlier in April 2021, several small and private COVID-19 vaccination centers in Mumbai were shut because of the unavailability of the Covid-19 vaccine, which includes Covishield and Covaxin, according to the details shared by the BMC spokesperson.
The city is not only facing a shortage of vaccines, but also oxygen tanks, ICU beds, and other health-related support systems – same as the country. The GOvernment of Maharashtra has imposed statewide Section 144 along with other restrictions till the date 1st May in the wake of the situation. The city is likely to face a strict lockdown for 15 days as the cases increase at an unmanageable rate.
Rising to the need of the hour, Your-Space has offered to convert its student accommodation homes to Isolation Homes for people looking to safely quarantine in Mumbai. With the increase in COVID testing and subsequent rate of transmission and infection, the shortage of beds in the city’s hospitals and care facilities is not only expected but also justified. Joining the league and following the lead of Quarantine hotels in Mumbai, Your-Space has stepped up in today’s testing times.
Our services have been converted into a system of catering to people who have been infected or are under the threat/scare of being in contact with an infected person and are actively looking to quarantine/isolate in the city – away from home, family and friends. Our otherwise luxuriously beautiful student accommodation homes have been prepared and re-equipped based on the needs of a person hit by the threat/infection of the virus.
For whom is your Isolation Facility recommended?
People who haven’t tested positive and are looking to quarantine/isolate to prevent any future contact with an infected person can stay with us. Besides, people who have tested positive with only mild manageable symptoms – only through oral medication, and are looking to get away from their friends/family to prevent infecting others can also contact us for booking their premium isolation room with us.
