Spread the awareness

about Coronavirus, not the panic.

What is Coronavirus?

Coronavirus is a large family of viruses that cause illnesses ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases.

Symptoms of Coronavirus
Fever | Tiredness | Dry cough | Loose motions

These symptoms are usually mild and may be difficult to distinguish from other infections. However, the good news is, about 80% of people recover from the disease without special treatment. Regular handwashing has been recommended as an effective measure to reduce the risk of infections.

What is #ProtektIndiaMovement?

Coronavirus is taking over the world, and our nation, and there's an urgent need to reduce the risk of infection.
With we intend to fight the virus with weapons of our own choice: regular handwashing and spreading awareness about the same to every single Indian. What’s more, we are in this together and the more people we inform, the stronger our fight gets. We urge each and every one of you to join the #ProtektIndiaMovement, take the pledge of regular handwashing and get everyone around you to do the same.

What can you do to stay protected and reduce the risk of Coronavirus?

There are several myths doing the rounds about Coronavirus and its treatment. So, it is important that you only go by the advice of medical professionals. We would also recommend that you refer to WHO or UNICEF for the right preventive measures and follow them.
