On May 5, Myanmar Medical Association called all doctors and gave explanation about SI. May I share some facts?

We have to wash our hands regularly, frequently and thoroughly. It's that- wash both hands,- both surfaces of hands, dorsal and ventral,- and then wash betweens of fingers,- wash thumbs,- and wash upto wrist joints. Washing must be with soaps. You can use spirit swab and hand-rub. Then we have to cover our cough and sneeze. Also we have to avoid public places, crowded places and other gathering.

We have to use MASK. Droplets can harm about six feet when coughing. There are some SI cases at Indonesia and Philippines this morning . God bless the World.
