– Nationwide social distancing campaign

The Central Disease Control Headquarters emphasized that it is crucial to observe disease control and prevention on an individual basis (i.e. personal hygiene such as wearing a face mask, washing one’s hands, and frequently ventilating indoor space) as well as voluntarily social distancing to minimize health concerns (i.e. severe illness, death) in the midst of the nationwide return to normalcy.
