For Staying Healthy

• Doctors have recommended drinking boiled or hot water throughout the day as it can help to kill the virus at some level.

• Performing yoga and exercises that help to heal and improve the respiratory system is strictly recommended. It will help your lungs to be able to inhale more oxygen.
