Every single one of us is dealing with the coronavirus quarantine in different ways. Some watch movies, others read books, and there are definitely people who have resorted to even more creative and outrageous endeavors. However, it’s nice to remember, every now and then, that we’re all in this together and by sharing our experiences, we might make it just that much easier to endure these trying times. One such person who took to Twitter to express his thoughts on the current global situation is Ashley Young, an English professional footballer who plays as a winger or full-back for Series A club Inter Milan.

The man is currently residing in Italy, where, as of March 25, there are 69,176 known cases of the coronavirus, with the highest death toll of 6,820 in the world. As the country went on complete lockdown at the beginning of March, Young also found himself self-isolating. The footballer recently expressed his thoughts on Twitter, sharing some tips with his online audience that were gladly welcomed with hundreds of thousands of likes and retweets.

As a writer and image editor for Bored Panda, Giedrė crafts posts on many different topics to push them to their potential. She's also glad that her Bachelor’s degree in English Philology didn’t go to waste (although collecting dust in the attic could also be considered an achievement of aesthetic value!) Giedrė is an avid fan of cats, photography, and mysteries, and a keen observer of the Internet culture which is what she is most excited to write about. Since she's embarked on her journalistic endeavor, Giedrė has over 600 articles under her belt and hopes for twice as much (fingers crossed - half of them are about cats).

Why do people follow advice of celebrities and not that of doctors?

About the masks and the gloves: masks are sold out, so are most gloves. A mask protects others from your germs but not really the other way around. The most useful thing is that it keeps you from touching your face. taking off glooves so that you don't come in contact with anyhting is acutally quite hard. You might just be better off to simply wash your hands when you are home.

Don't forget to wash everything with soap and hot water when you get home, before taking off gloves. First wash gloved hands, then wash all non-paper packages from supermarket, and all fruits and vegs (soap and hot water). Throw away any packaging (like paper bags) that you can't wash.
