How? There are new standards that encourage healthy conditions.
* Wash hands frequently, with soap and hot water, for at least 20 seconds.
* If you can't wash your hands, use hand sanitizer (60% alcohol or higher).
* Stock up on packets of tissues (widely available throughout Europe) and alcohol-based sanitizing wipes (less common in Europe, so bring these from home).
* Cover your mouth when coughing (with the inside of your elbow).
* Avoid touching your face--the eyes, nose, and mouth are areas where illness can easily spread.
* Stay hydrated--drink lots of water.
* Get your sleep.
* Opt out of activities if you’re feeling tired or unwell.
* If not feeling well, go to pharmacy or see a doctor. (Your guide or hotel staff can help.)
It remains to be seen exactly how, and for how long, travel will be affected by Corona virus. Stay informed, stay healthy, and--if you deem it safe and responsible--keep on traveling.
If you are travelling make sure you take 14 extra days of prescribed medication just in case you are put into quarantine.
Don't rely on hand sanitizers and be cautious when you use it:
Hand sanitizers work by removing the outer layer of oil on your skin. ... If your hands are particularly dirty or grimy, hand sanitizer will likely not be very effective. Moreover, if you use a hand sanitizer that contains less than 60% alcohol, it will likely not kill most of the germs on your hands.
