Here's What to Do in Times of Pandemic Crisis
In times of crisis, we must know exactly what to do to avoid getting into trouble. We know that the risk group for the Coronavirus pandemic is the elderly. This is worrying, since even if they are our elderly, younger people are at risk of transmitting the disease and are also prohibited from walking the streets.

In times of crisis, how to keep an eye on grandparents
Families and nursing homes have also adapted to ensure the safety of the elderly. During this quarantine, there has been a lot of talk about how to convince them to stay at home.
Some people have resorted to instilling fear and shocking the elderly with reality. Arguments such as mass deaths and hygiene are used by families, but even so, they know how to articulate themselves and respond easily.
We can help by going to the grocery store and pharmacy, even though it is somewhat complicated to be stuck, they must understand that it is for their own good. Even though the subject has been a source of humor with memes on the networks, isolation is physical and not social.
It is important at this time to establish a routine for the elderly, not only for them, but also for children so that they do not become too bored. This also prevents anxiety from increasing. What you cannot do is stay still, as our body also responds negatively.
We can read books, watch movies or do our favorite hobby. Nursing homes have also doubled their care and banned visits from relatives. Now, visits from many places are being conducted via cell phones, through video calls.
Wash your hands, use hand sanitizer, and avoid leaving your home. This can be very harmful. Prevent yourself!
