It's not a good idea to talk for long in the cold.

Also, do not wash your hair before going outside. It is better to do this at least a few hours before.

In addition, you should limit the number of trips on public transport, and it is better to refuse to attend mass events. If there is no way out, then you should remember the simple safety rules: put on a mask, and then thoroughly wash your hands. It will not be superfluous to rinse your throat and nose at home.

You also need to try to strengthen your immune system. To do this, you need to drink more fluids, choose healthy foods, walk more in the fresh air, and give up bad habits.
