We're all going to be in this for the long haul and
separating fact from fiction is really important so here are some more myths
you should be aware of.
Myth1
Lemon juice protects you from covert 19 there have been plenty of claims about things you should eat or drink too thought coronavirus and the lemon juice.
Myth just won't go
away it started with a viral social media post containing advice from a fake
Chinese scientist to be clear lemon juice is obviously not bad for you in fact
all fruit and vegetables are essential while nearly all of us have to stay at
home they can help keep you healthy but they don't stop you getting a virus
like this.
Myth 2
Mosquito bites can
infect you with the virus we all know you can get other diseases from mosquito
bites but there's no evidence at all that the little brutes can infect you with
corona virus again remember this is a respiratory virus spread mainly when
someone who is ill coughs or sneezes and the best way to protect yourself is to
avoid close contact with anyone who is sick and keep washing your hands.
Myth 3
blood donations will get you a free test some people are
hoping they might get a free coronavirus test if they donate blood that's
absolutely not the case but there's been a persistent false belief on social
media that it might be to be clear you don't get tested for COVID 19 if you
give blood and the last thing staff who run blood banks want is sick people
coming in nor of course can you get the virus from a blood donation so the best
advice for now try to stay healthy or scientists work towards medical
breakthroughs.
