Leone: Starting from kids to elders, educated and uneducated people more than virus they are scared whether they will get infected with this virus and die because of it and what their families will do if it happens. What is your positive message for them to motivate them and give them hope. Dr. Jaya: There is no need to get scared of Corona virus unnecessarily. There is no need to get scared if you are wearing mask, maintaining social distance, washing hands and took 2 doses of vaccination. Also understand one thing that there are 2to5% in hundred people are only are getting severely affected and they are pushed for intense treatment. Among them only few are dying. So the number of people undergoing hospitalization is very less. For more than 95% people there is no need of going to hospital. They can take home care by isolating at home and supply healthy food, hot drinking water, paracetamol is more than enough. And there is no need of any other medication and actually there is no other medicine for this. Only 3% of people are pushed to severity and intense treatment and among them 1-2% people may die. So 98% people will not face any issue. But we will be able to pass the infection to other people. So not wearing mask, going for work, talking with others, going to market, coughing on others, all these causes risk to our community because of us. You will be able to find whether you have this virus or not by taking test. Sometimes even if people are tested positive they will not have any symptoms. They will be perfectly fine. They are called as Asymptomatic. That is actually very risky. They can spread the virus to others. Because they roam outside. So if anyone in your family is infected you better go and test yourself. Neighbors and colleagues should also go and test themselves. Whatever may be the result whether its positive or negative please do maintain social distancing, wearing mask, washing hands and taking vaccination should be done. Only then we can fight this virus.
