Very inexpensive & easy way to prevent Covid/sickness in general

 


In the photo (above) you can see I attached a new stylus (the end of the pen that's in the air is what I'm referring to when I say stylus) which is used for touching public touchscreens at ATMs and pin pads when using a debit/credit card to purchase something. I use a pen holder (the black holder for the pen) and secure it with some Alien tape (heavy duty tape that's advertised to be as strong as screws) that I wrap around the pen & holder so that it doesn't come out. I use a retractable badge holder to attach the pen holder to my purse. As a result, I can quickly & easily grab the pen (that's attached to my purse) and it reaches with ease to whatever I need it for (as I mentioned earlier, a touchscreen at an ATM/pin pads in general).

You can also see in that same photo (above) that my old stylus is on the counter to show how it needed to be replaced (the cushion where the stylus would be that touches the touchscreens/pin pads is practically gone since it's so worn and the pen fell apart). Every so often (when this happens after some time) you need to replace them.

Stylus pens (what I've shown in the above picture) can be purchased inexpensively at Dollar Tree or on Amazon as some examples. The purpose of using them as barriers to NOT touch with your bare fingers public touchscreens and pin pads which are generally germy and could have Covid.

Did you know this over-the-counter Covid test expires quite a bit after its expiration date?

Image
  Back when the South Hill Library provided brand-new over-the-counter Covid tests, they had also provided slips of paper that mentioned expiration date extensions (basically that 15-22 months past the expiration date of the tests that they were still good for) and to visit a link for more details. So, I taped the slip of paper on each Covid test box for reference. Note: References to "I" in this post is Carly Calabrese, the founder & implementer of this Covid awareness & support blog that you're at.

Leftover different types of lung teas I took to help recover after I had Covid

Image
To assist with the long-term breathing problems I had when recovering from Covid, I took a picture of the leftover different types of lung teas I still have in my pantry (BELOW). I liked the "Lung Soother" (tea that's pictured in the middle of the other teas) best with regard to taste especially after letting it steep for awhile (when the taste of the tea intensifies) it's still good. These teas were bought off of Amazon. The price of the Lung Soother tea was in the $6 range. I have this leftover Mucus Relief Maximum Strength tablets (BELOW) from when I had Covid. I don't think they did much, but when I checked the expiration on it today (it's still good until 3/2025). I won't photograph other healthy breathing supplements (tablet form) that I took as I no longer have and besides I honestly think the lung teas (which are supplements as well) are the most beneficial. Be sure to follow the instructions for the tea/(s) you choose to drink. I also won't...

The Breather

Image
The Breather (BELOW) is a drug free way to exercise your lungs (I used several times a day when recovering from Covid). It has different levels of resistance that you work up to (similar to how one would when using hand weights when exercising). You can adjust the "inhale" and "exhale" resistance levels on the device to your comfort level. You have to wash the Breather daily with soap and water (I used dish soap & dish sponge) and you can wipe it down (however, letting it air dry like you would dishes, for example) lets it dry in the interior so when you use next you won't be sucking in water drops (when inhaling in & out). I could notice the difference when it was still wet on the inside (even when exhaling with the Breather if it was wet). There's a short video you can watch (paperwork including tracking your "reps" the amount of inhale & exhales [breaths] you take with the Breather to ensure that you're using correctly) that you ...
