Social distancing is something citizens across the world have been implementing. It involves curbing the spread of an infection or disease by staying indoors as much as possible, and being very careful about where one goes when in public.
In the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, social distancing has become a necessity to ensure that less people are at risk of contracting the virus – particularly vulnerable persons. These include the elderly and those with compromised immune systems.
While many have been staying safely indoors, there are still those who are going about their business beyond the comforts of home. A new social media trend that goes by the name #istayhomefor is highlighting the importance of being mindful of others during the time of the pandemic, and telling beautiful stories of why they are staying home to protect their loved ones.
Take a look at some of the inspirational stories:
