Friday, the World Health Organization (WHO) called on people to adhere to a set of guidelines to strengthen the body's immunity and avoid infection with the emerging coronavirus, including eating healthy food and avoiding alcoholic beverages and cigarettes.
"You must pay attention to your physical and mental health, because this will help you to fight Covid-19 if you get it," said WHO director Tidros Adhanum Gebresos, adding: "We call to avoid drinks high in sugar, alcohol and cigarettes."
He continued: "On the other hand, we recommend healthy food and exercise for 30 minutes a day for adults and an hour for children."
"Cycling and some exercises such as dancing and yoga will be beneficial ... and be sure to avoid sitting in one position for a long time," he said.
Gebresus also revealed that "talking to people you know and trust will help you overcome this crisis ... rest assured of your families, friends and neighbors."
He concluded his speech by saying: "This crisis will give us an opportunity to meet and unite as one human body to learn together and develop together ... The victory over Corona needs the cooperation of all.
The death toll of the newly emerging Corona Virus continues in conjunction with the world's efforts to stem the spread of the disease by adopting strict precautionary measures. For the third consecutive day, the Chinese mainland had not recorded new cases of coronavirus at the local level, while the number of infections detected by arrivals from abroad had increased. The National Health Commission of China reported that 41 new confirmed cases of Coronavirus were registered on the Chinese mainland, Friday, a slight increase from the previous day in which only 39 cases were recorded. The committee said in a statement, on Saturday, that this brings the total number of injuries on the mainland so far to 81008 cases.
The death toll from the "Covid-19" virus outbreak reached 32,555 deaths as of the end of Friday, an increase of 7 deaths from the previous day, all in Hubei province, the epicenter of the virus in China.
