Older people, and those with underlying medical problems like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic respiratory disease, and cancer are more likely to develop serious illness that can be lethal.

How can we protect ourselves and organize communication while staying at home?

Social distancing is a necessity in this time of pandemic. But there’s no need to isolate yourself from communicating with other people and living your normal life. You just need to slightly change the way it is.
