Jalani WFH, Shireen Sungkar Reminds COVID-19 is Not a Joke

Kapanlagi.com - Until now, the public is still practicing social distancing as recommended by the government. Shireen Sungkar is also doing the same.

She revealed that she has been at home for 2 weeks. The wife of Teuku Wisnu said that her family has not gone anywhere.

"Since I came back from abroad, I rarely go out. The kids have been at home for two weeks and haven't gone anywhere. Because there are already many cases abroad. At that time, I was still working when the number of positive cases in Indonesia was still rare. Since the government told us to stay at home, I have been staying at home. So, it's true that I haven't left the house for 2 weeks, and Wisnu too. So when we were told to work from home, Wisnu already gave everyone time off," said Shireen Sungkar when contacted today (31/3).

1. Not a Joke Virus

As a mother, Shireen certainly takes great care of the health and safety of her family. She reminds everyone that this virus is not a joke.

"My message to all of you is that we must care about COVID-19. Because this is not a joke virus. It spreads very quickly. Just imagine, in two weeks, how many people have become victims all over the world. The number of infected people has exceeded 300,000 in a short period of time. In Indonesia alone, there are more than 1,000 people in less than a month," said Shireen.

2. Take Care of Health and Cleanliness

Shireen also reminds people not to panic and stress excessively. This can be immediately addressed by taking care of health and staying at home.

She also reminds everyone to always carry hand sanitizer, wash hands, and wear masks even though the prices are relatively expensive.

"If you have (masks), alhamdulillah, if not, maintain a distance of 1-2 meters from others if possible. When you come home, always think that you are carrying the virus. Once you're home, take a shower, change clothes, clean up first, then meet your wife and children. Let's clean up first so that our families don't get affected. Those who are already at home should not go out, play, or hang out," she said.

"Just remember, we don't know who will transmit the virus in our environment. If one person gets infected, everyone can get infected in an instant. If you meet friends, you can all go online, just stay online for now. Like me, I rarely meet my extended family, but I just video call them. Anyway, stay safe everyone, take care of your health and immunity. And hopefully, Allah will end this epidemic. Stay healthy because Indonesia is definitely strong and it starts with ourselves," she added.
