Remember the character from Peanuts named Pigsty? Yeah, don't be that guy.
Coronavirus got ya paranoid? Don't be self-conscious! Most everyone felt a strong need to arm themselves with hand sanitizer and Clorox, as we've observed with store shelves so barren you'd expect a tumbleweed to go by.
It is true though--practicing hygiene and proper sanitation practices is your consistent, personal arsenal against COVID-19.
How long the threat of the coronavirus will remain is unclear. This isn't just about making wise decisions in what you purchase, this is about adapting to a future where cleanliness takes a new role in our lives.
There's a lot more to consider than hand sanitizer and face masks-- make sure you're properly prepared for hygiene in a way that is practical regardless of how probable future unfoldings may be.
You can disappear in canisters of disinfectant wipes, or shop smart to keep the space and things around you, as well as prepare for unique situations.
We're all learning how to adapt to staying in a LOT more. But what does the demand for cleanliness mean for our day-to-day lives? How can we adjust?
