Top Tips On Staying Safe In Public During The Pandemic


During this time, safety is entirely dependent on social distance and self-isolation. However, there will be times when you will need to leave your home. It could be to pick up some essentials or run a quick errand.

Useful Tips To Follow

Simply Cremations & Funeral Services' top advice for being safe in public settings during a pandemic is as follows:

  • Maintain a distance of approximately 6 feet from other individuals and, if possible, avoid confined spaces such as small rooms or crowded lifts since you may accidentally inhale the virus.
  • It is common for people to touch doorknobs, handrails, products, and credit cards when they are out. Ensuring that your hands keep away from your face, nose, and eyes will significantly reduce your risk of contracting the virus.
  • Always use a mask while going out, regardless of whether you have a cold or a cough. While there is no conclusive evidence that masks protect against the COVID-19 disease, they may help restrict its spread.
  • Even if you leave your house, you must wash your hands thoroughly. Each time you wash it, rinse them for at least 20 seconds. Consistently wash your hands before leaving the house or upon return from chores. It is advisable to wash your hands with regular soap and water rather than a hand sanitizer. The former is the most efficient course of action.
  • Bring a hand sanitizer with you anytime you go somewhere and use it on any surfaces or products you touch.

Regardless of the number of people surrounding you in a public space, follow these recommendations; it's always better to be safe than sorry. For more information, contact us at Simply Cremations & Funeral Services via this online form, and one of our experts will revert shortly.
