How to Pack For Travel In COVID-19 Affected World

As COVID-19 spreads through contact, it becomes extremely important for you to keep sanitising or washing your hands with soap after touching any person or anything that may have been touched by any other person before you.

One of the most important travel precautions is that if you are travelling by any vehicle or checking-in any hotel, keeping a disinfectant handy always helps you to clean the seat, handles, door handles, taps, knobs, switches, buttons or any other object which you may touch during your journey or your stay. Cleaning the objects with disinfectants reduces your chances of transferring COVID-19 / Coronavirus on your hand from the object and later into your body if by any chance your hands or fingers come in contact with your eyes, nose, mouth or any other part of your body from which the virus can enter your body.

As masks are necessary to prevent the spread of COVID-19 / Coronavirus via respiration and gloves help you to prevent the virus from directly coming in contact with your hands from any object, wearing masks and gloves is extremely necessary. Moreover, using the same pair of mask and gloves over and over again can increase the chance of contamination and infection. So, it’s preferable to use disposable pairs or washable pairs which you must wash using soap and water after every use. Even if you are using a washable mask and gloves, it is necessary to carry extra pairs with you on the trip as a backup which you can use while the washed pair is drying or if you lose it.

While you are covering your nose, mouth and hands, it is also better to carry things that can cover your hair, ears and eyes as well. Your scarfs, caps and glasses will prevent you from unknowingly touching your face or head with your hands from which the virus can be transferred from your hand to your eyes, ears or hair from which the virus might enter your body.

Carrying a reusable water bottle always helps you to avoid the chances of getting infected by a bottle, glass, straw or cup which may have been used or handled by a person infected with COVID-19 / Coronavirus.
