3 other ways to prevent Covid spread

Here are 3 other ways to prevent Covid spread that can be easily incorporated into your life with minimal costs:


1) When you don't have to be some where by a certain time (and there'd still be time to do whatever business you need to do before closing time), you can wait in your car until a line dies down and then go into wherever you're going. For example, when there was a line/busy at my credit union, I waited in my car (I could see since I was parked right in front) and made a phone call first and then by the time my call was done there was no longer a line in my credit union.




2) Many of us buy things off Amazon and it doesn't take long to get a hand wipe and wipe down items you purchased. Hand wipes that are either the store brand or commonly known from the "Wet Ones" brand are gentle enough on your mouth and as a result they do NOT destroy things you wipe with (whereas with Lysol/Clorox/store brand of these types of wipes are still great to use, you have to be more careful with). For example, you would NOT want to use the Lysol/Clorox/store brand of these types of wipes to dust the interior of your car as it can destroy it.



Why would you want to wipe down items purchased off Amazon? You have no idea the person who just packaged your package is sick. As we've long established, touching things from a sick person (sick defined as a cold, flu, and definitely Covid-19) can get you sick. I think to myself when I wipe down my Amazon items how it's SO worth it NOT to have breathing problems (which is what I had for an extended time when I got Covid) remember I still get breathing flare-ups as a result of having Covid just once.




3) Disinfect your hands after touching/opening mail (including boxes, padded envelopes, etc.) again you don't know how many people have touched your mail before you do that are sick, etc.

What other things do you do that you think many people may NOT think of to prevent the spread of germs? Comment publicly to this post.

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 ...

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...

2 Covid prevention tips

Image
Covid prevention tip #1:  Either have antibacterial hand wipes OR hand sanitizer spray OR gel (minimally on you at all times) so that you can quickly disinfect hands after touching commonly touched surfaces in public/NOT have to touch commonly touched surfaces in public (i.e. if you use the hand wipe as a barrier when touching commonly touched surfaces such as doorknobs or pin pads at checkout). Well known brands for antibacterial hand wipes are "Wet Ones" and "Purell", of course store brand wipes work as well. Covid prevention tip #2:  To further support my point in Covid prevention tip #1, I was at Walgreens tonight and I thought I'd use the hand wipes that they provide in store since it'd be quicker to grab than my wipes in my bag (for wiping the shopping cart). I expected the first wipe or 2 to be dry, but even after grabbing a few, they were all so dry that I dug out my hand wipes (see photo below) that I got for the first time (first time I've eve...
