During these days of Stay-At-Home, let the creative juice flow….lyrics, in italics, by some one from New Zealand, shared below: The Sound of a Pandemic! Don’t worry, Maria and the Von Trapplings know how to deal with it! In the video “Do Re Mi – Covid 19 version“
Let’s start at the very beginning A sore throat, a cough in Wuhan And in no time at all, there were 1, 2, 3 And one went on a plane – took it overseas Overseas And that’s how pandemics get started, you see Woe is me Now we’ve got Covid-19 Do not fear – but please stay here Stay at home now, everyone We must wash and clean things well Cars? No long trips just for fun! Don’t let Covid virus spread Isolate yourself at home See your friends online instead That’s the healthy way to go oh oh oh X2 Do not fear – but just stay here Time to all self-isolate Wash your hands, use lots of soap Don’t go further than your gate! Social life must stay online Keep 2 metres clear of me, Watch TV, drink lots of wine That will kill Covid-19! Cough in your elbow, wash your hands with soap! Now children, staying at home -and-so on are things we do to stop the spread of Covid-19 Once you have this in your head You can do a million different things at home to stay sane, Like this: Sleep, eat, whinge, tweet, snooze, blob, think Loaf, mooch, doze, smooch, binge watch, drink But staying inside is so boring! So we think about why – remember why we’re doing it – like this: When you know the reason why, Kill off Covid – stay inside! Exercise close to your home Only shop for what you need Keep your bubble tightly closed And we’ll beat this bug with speed! Social life has been postponed And you’re bored out of your mind Suck it up and stay at home And we’ll leave this bug behind! Cough in your elbow, wash your hands, Keep two metres away from me Yes please, I’m germ free And that’s how I’d like to be! Keep away, please from me I will stay Covid free! When you know the things to do, germs will stay away from you! Stay inside your bubble now Do not spread those germs around Yes, you might be going mad And be desperate to get out! It’s a nasty world out there Keep the social distance rules Everything you touch – beware You could spread – more – germs, you (fools) Flatten the curve – Covid 19! You have got the power to flatten the curve through The things you choose to do – it’s true!
So, let’s all try to stay home as much as possible! As for individual citizens, please wash your hands often (each time for at least 20 seconds), get tested if and when you can, stop shaking hands, observe social distancing (staying at least 6 feet from others), be sure to get sufficient rest, be well nourished, exercised, drink plenty of hot water and ginger tea, and decrease unnecessary social contacts.
Some of the basics needed in prepping for potential self-quarantine:
