    Coronavirus has stripped one and all of any glamour surrounding their lives. People, rich or poor, are looking at this crisis in the eye and trying their best to help India and fellow countrymen come out of this alive. 

    So, when push came to a shove, given Indiaâs steady growth in positive Coronavirus cases, powerful and famous Indians stepped forward to extend special aid that would help India fight the COVID-19 outbreak a little bit harder and better. 
    These famous Indian personalities were kind enough to offer their personal offices and even homes to help those in need to fight the infection better.

    The Mahindra Group CEO was one of the first people who offered to open up the Mahindra Resorts and turn them into temporary healthcare facilities to fight the COVID-19 outbreak in the country. 

    He also added that the Mahindra Group will also facilitate the manufacturing of ventilators to deal with the countrywide shortage for the crucial coronavirus infection-fighting equipment.

    The kind Ratan Tata, Chairman of the Tata Group won a million hearts when it was announced that the Tata Group has opened the doors of its Taj properties in Maharashtra to help doctors and medical staff in need of rest and proper treatment while they leave away from their homes. 

    Sharing the news on social media, NCP leader Supriya Sule wrote, âThe Tata Group is providing accommodation at the Taj Hotel, Colaba and Taj Lands End, Bandra for Doctors and Nurses working in BMC Hospitals amidst Corona Virus Crisis.â

    Amid the news of growing COVID-19 cases in Delhi, and with many on-duty doctors and nurses testing positive for the infection, Keshav Suriâs The Lalit opened up its rooms to double up as quarantine facilities for doctors who were in need of accommodation away from their homes. 

    The hotel is currently hosting COVID-19 doctors from Lok Nayak Hospital and GB Pant Hospital in Delhi and allowing them to self-quarantine in this time of crisis.

    The Coronavirus pandemic has initiated a lockdown in most countries that has resulted in minimal human interaction, and while it's a privilege to be able to stay at home amidst the pandemic, it can, inevitably, get a little lonesome at times. 
    Amidst these strange times, people are finding new and creative ways to participate socially while adhering to social distancing norms. 
    Case in point, Scott Duggan from the Frankfield Villas neighbourhood in Ireland who works at a theatre company, decided to use his equipment amidst the lockdown to project a classic film for the neighbourhood's entertainment.

    For this, the neighbourhood, set up their couches, patio heaters, outdoor lights and refreshments in their front gardens while adhering to the social distancing guidelines to watch the 1953 Marilyn Monroe classic comedy, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes all together.

    Frankfield Villas is a small neighbourhood in Ireland with a terrace of 14 houses on Windmill Rd in Cork City which is the second-largest city in Ireland.

    Scott Duggan is the technical manager of the Cyclone Rep theatre company. To carry out this project, whilst the film was projected onto the gable-end of a house on the terrace, the sound was broadcasted on people's radios separately to make sure that people stay put in their respective balconies.

    Ann Lynch, a fellow neighbour, who has lived in the neighbourhood for almost 54 years told the local publication that this was the best idea she had ever seen.
    © TWITTER/ @CLAREMKEOGH
    Scott Duggan told the publication that he did it to maintain a sense of community and solidarity during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    He further added, âThe absence of the shared experience has been one of the most difficult things that people have had to adjust to across the globe over the last number of weeks. Whether that experience is the cinema, the theatre, the local pub, sports events or major public gatherings, staying apart is not normal behaviour for huge swathes of the population."
    © TWITTER/ @CLAREMKEOGH
    Talking about the accessibility of OTT platforms in Ireland, he added, âOlder people may not have the ease of access to streaming services that are taken for granted in other households. The impromptu movies provide some safe entertainment and an important sense of community that a lot of people are missing out on right now.â

    He definitely wants to host another one of these social distance adhering movie nights. He said, âThe movie night was so well received on the street that we are looking to do it again."
    Scott Duggan wants to set up a similar arrangement for nursing homes or elderly care centres near his locality.

    The lockdown at the moment is making us do some really insane things. Most of us are filling the hours by cleaning and cooking and it looks like the same is the case with B-towners as well. Right from Vicky Kaushal to Katrina Kaif, most of them are seen managing and balancing their house whilst also entertaining us.
    While we are quarantined,  it is impossible for us to call our maids and ask them to do the house chores. For those who do not have full-time help, this quarantine is actually turning into a unique experience altogether.

    Recently, renowned dancer and choreographer Shakti Mohan took to Instagram and is seen cleaning her house with a 'pocha'. What's different is the way she is doing it, showing her flexibility while cleaning the floor. More of a weird and an unbelievable act, this viral video led to a lot of comments that have left us confused if this is actually cleaning or a way to make yourself dirty. Check out this video.

    Everyone around is finding ways to stay sane during this lockdown period. Shakti is currently quarantining with her two other sisters, Neeti And Mukti Mohan. The sister trio is doing their best and uploading some really entertaining videos with their unique touch.

    Besides entertainment, since most of the states have made it compulsory to wear masks, Shakti also took an initiative a while ago and urged people to make their own masks at home. The video is not just talks, but a proper way, wherein she actually shows how to make a homemade mask, yourself

    All in all, even though this is a bizarre act of cleaning the house with a pocha, it is still gaining all the momentum, for the way Shakti is showing off her flexibility.
    How we wish, we had the same amount of enthusiasm to clean our house, every day!

    As we all are staying at our homes in the 21-day-long government-imposed lockdown, itâs time that we finally get to chill with our family members, especially your siblings because they can be your partners-in-crime. Well, my brother in the US so I have been missing him crazily but thatâs not the case with our Bollywood hunk Vicky Kaushal.

    Well, Vicky Kaushal and his brother Sunny Kaushal are giving us some major bromance goals during the lockdown. The two are singing together, doing household chores, and even experimenting with cooking these days. We looked at their Instagram feed and itâs full of some fun antics that are quite relatable to what we have been doing at our phones.

    In one of the videos, Vicky Kaushal is seen cleaning the fans and its Sunny whoâs recording it. The caption is also quite funny as he wrote, "Thought Iâd interact with my fans today... #quarantinelife."

    Amid the ongoing situation across the world, due to the spread of the novel coronavirus, there is a complete lockdown situation in many countries. In fact, as per the reports, even Prime Minister Narendra Modi hinted to legislature party leaders that the lockdown may have to stay in place beyond April 14 in India, given the state of the battle against the Covid-19 pandemic in the country.

    âWe need to be strict in implementing social distancing norms. So be it lifting or extending the lockdown, the general mood is that it will not be possible to lift the lockdown at once,â PM Modi recently said. 
    At such a time of the crisis, there are many people out there, the real heroes and warriors at the frontline, who are battling the pandemic at various levels. One such instance is of Anand Mahindraâs Mahindra & Mahindra Group, which is fully out there lending a helping hand to the countrywide effort of fighting against this deadly virus. The company's two-wheeler manufacturing plant at Pitampur, Madhya Pradesh, which rolls out the Jawa brand of motorcycles, has begun assembling face shields for the health workers. 
    Prakash Wakankar, who is in charge of the Mahindra Group's International Operations for Farm Equipment and Global Two-Wheeler Business, took to his Twitter account to share the news. Subsequently, Mahindra too shared the post and lauded them for their utmost commitment. 
    All hands on deck! Thank you, M&M, Pitampur! Iâm glad the home of the Jawa bike is displaying such character & commitment. https://t.co/jQlvIt2rtT
    â anand mahindra (@anandmahindra) April 9, 2020These face shields, developed from a design sourced from the Ford Motor Corporation, fully block the face and eyes from accidental contact with liquids. Earlier, the Mahindra Group came out with their first prototype for an in-house ventilator design, developed in an astonishing 48-hour marathon effort from the companyâs R&D teams from Igatpuri and Mumbai.  

    Not just face shields for frontline health workers, the Pitampur plant is also fully dedicated in serving 1000 plus meal packets from their kitchen regularly. Their selfless efforts were well appreciated on Twitter.
    Real Brave Heros, Proud of you and your Team... Sir!!

    The entire world is battling this deadly and contagious virus called COVID 19. The news channels continue to telecast how Coronavirus is affecting all the countries and that is surely resulting in panic and anxiety, as people sitting at home are struggling to deal with it.
    Well, itâs better we trust the accounts of the people who are actually COVID 19 positive or have recovered from it so as to get a clearer picture in our heads. Purab Kohli took to Instagram to share his account with all his fans and posted that he and his family are not contagious anymore. The former VJ said he wanted his fans to know about it as he thought this would help reduce the panic a little.
    View this post on InstagramHey guys, weâve just had a flu and given our symptoms our GP says we were down with Covid 19. Pretty similar to a regular flu with a stronger cough and a feeling of breathlessness. Inaya got it first and very mild. A cough and a cold for two days. Then Lucy got it more in the chest, quite similar to the cough symptom everyone has been talking about. Then me, i got a solid cold for one day which was horrid then it vanished and this irritating cough set in for 3 days. Three of us had only mild 100-101 temperatures and fatigue. Osian got it last with a 104 fever for 3 nights. Also a runny nose and a slight cough. His fever disappeared only on his 5th day. We were constantly in touch with the GP on the phone. Apparently everyone in London is getting it and its rampant here, and a few people we know have gotten it. Just wanted to share it with you if it helps reduce the panic a little to know someone who has had it and is fine. On Wednesday last week we were out of self imposed quarantine and are not contagious any longer. We were doing 4 to 5 steams and salt water gargles a day, ginger haldi honey mixtures to sooth the throat really helped. Also warm water bottles on the chest really helped relax the chest. Hot baths helped the fluie feelings. And of course lots and lots of rest even now after two weeks we can feel our bodies still recovering. Please stay safe. I hope none of you get it but if you do, know that your body is strong enough to fight it. Seek proper advice from your doctors as intensity of each case is different as was in my household alone. And please stay home and rest the body as much as possible. Lots of love. #CoronaVirus #Covid19 #Recovery #DontPanic #Breathe #CalmA post shared by (@purab_kohli)
    MensXP got in touch with Purab Kohli to know how he battled anxiety and how his family dealt with the situation as all the members tested positive for COVID 19. Here are the excerpts from the interview: 
    First of all, I am more than happy to know you and your family are recovering and are doing better. I know these are hard times and even in those hard times, you reached out to all your fans and followers to make them understand the importance of self-quarantine and social distancing.   
    I am more than happy to know that you are happy that I have recovered and I am doing well. Well, I wanted to reduce the sense of panic because I felt that was the need of the hour. When our doctor told us that we had mild to medium symptoms, we realized that our daughter was in contact with someone a week before who got the virus and was taken to the hospital and there's when we got confirmed that we are down with COVID 19. After we got a confirmation, we sent out messages to our friends. We got a very positive response and there was a sense of relief that we all felt. So, they suggested that I should put it out as a post and it might help a lot of people. Well, people are writing to me that they are feeling relieved after reading that message. 
    I am glad that my post did the job because the media has the tendency of showing the worst and people are only looking at the deaths happening because of the virus. The number of cases contracted can create paranoia but then there are people who are getting recovered so that's hope. One of my biggest intentions to share it on social media was to show this side of the story too.  
    When you found out about being COVID 19 positive, did you have any sort of anxiety considering the nature of the pandemic? 
    The first four or five days, as I said, I didn't believe that we have got COVID 19 so then there was no panic as such. Honestly, we were feeling a bit fatigued and I have had a worse bout of flu. When it actually started getting worrying was between the sixth and the eighth day. My wife started feeling breathless, I also started to feel the same way but it wasn't as bad as hers, especially in the night when we were sleeping. I am sure my son was also getting a little breathless, he is a 15-month-old baby and can't speak but we could notice his breath getting heavier at night. There was a very irritating feeling, sort of dry and scratchy sorts just above the chest. It was actually then we realized that this is no joke and my son's fever also shot up. All of it combined was very stressful.  
    View this post on Instagram#Dada Kohli #Daddy Kohli #OsianNur Kohli #Kohlis #threegenerationsA post shared by (@purab_kohli)It would be great if you could give tips on how to stay mentally fit when you are already tackling such a big issue? How did you manage your stress with your health not being okay?  
    We reached a point that we decided to switch off our phones and stopped reading information scattered all over. It's flu at the end of the day. We were doing basic things like consuming turmeric, ginger, hot water gargles and keeping a hot water bottle on the chest. In fact, keeping a hot water bottle on the chest was the advice given by my wife's friend who also had COVID 19. To keep ourselves mentally calm, we stopped responding to the WhatsApp forwards that were telling what we should be doing and what not. We were meditating as keeping calm was the only way out. If there's breathlessness, your mind would obviously go into panic mode that would put the body in the panic mode. Just calm yourself and give your body ample rest. We reduced all sorts of communications at that time.  
    In India, we have been staying under the lockdown as we cannot step out. What are you doing to keep yourself busy in this self-quarantine period?   
    In London, there's not much of a lockdown per se. We do go for walks but yes, we weren't stepping out when we had COVID 19. For almost 2 weeks, we completely closed down and at that time; we were spending time with the kids, cooking food and doing all the household chores. We have two kids, one is 4 and one is 15-month-old, we are seeing them grow. We have got games to keep the kids busy.

    How have you guys been a pillar of strength to each other when everyone was battling the virus?   
    It was hard with all the four people in the household being sick. The kids kept waking up at the night and we had to take care of them and in the process, take care of ourselves. We had to do everything related to household chores so we kept our head down and kept going. My kids also realized that something is wrong, so they understood completely. It was surely stressful.

    There are people who are scared of it and are even running away from quarantine centres. Would you want to give them any solid advice as they are scared and are not ready to take it seriously?   
    Taking it seriously and being scared are two different things. If people are thinking that 'mere ko nahi hoga', that's a stupidity because there are many cases here in the UK who are the carriers but aren't showing any symptoms. The virus is in them but isn't affecting them; probably they have a stronger immune system. But, it doesn't mean that they are not carriers. They are a bunch of older people around and you can pass this on to them. In India, I don't know the correct details if the Government is taking people under quarantine or not but here in the UK, people are asked to be in self-quarantine. Here, we can go out to pick groceries and walk in the park. When we contracted COVID 19, people were helping us with groceries and they were dropping it at the doors. This can be cured but going in denial that 'mujhe nahi hoga or mujhe nahi hua hai' won't help. My advice is to quarantine yourself when you start having symptoms. In our case, it was my daughter who got it first, then my wife and then me. For the first few days, I wasn't ready to believe that we have got COVID 19. It was only after my son got a fever, we started calling our doc and she listened to our symptoms. She also told us that people are having different symptoms and still contracting the virus. I would advise people that it's a contagious disease, so please take care.

    So, thereâs a myth that people in high-rise buildings and sanitized homes canât contract this virus, do you have anything to say on this?   
    I think the virus can go anywhere through the human body and hard surfaces. Everyone should be just careful, be it you're staying in sanitized homes or underground.
    Has something changed in your approach towards life post battling this deadly pandemic as a lot of people are now respecting life & understanding its importance? 
    I have always been a believer that panic always brings trouble. If there's something that I have learnt is that panic is the worst emotion, so it's better to try and stay steer clear of it. Well, it's better to focus on achieving calmness. When it comes to appreciating life, I have always been an appreciator. My thoughts haven't changed on that front. I really hope that the world changes and people start loving the environment more. In a deeper way, this feels that that planet is asking us to stop. Mother Earth is actually telling us to calm down and people have started to respect each other. I think after the lockdown lifts, it will be difficult for people to go back to the hustle-bustle life and I wish the world changes for the better. 
    We hope you got clarity after reading the information Purab shared. In case you or anyone around you starts showing symptoms, donât get scared of getting tested and donât let panic run on your mind. Practice social distancing and continue following guidelines.

    The world is seeing the good side of people amidst the current Coronavirus pandemic and Bollywood celebrities are the torchbearers for such initiatives. 

    From Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan to Shah Rukh Khan, most celebrities are doing their bit by making donations or providing aid to the needy in these tough times.  
    Joining the list is actor Sonu Sood, who recently opened the doors of his Mumbai Hotel to the medical staff selflessly fighting the pandemic. 
    View this post on Instagramð ð¯#9baje9minuteA post shared by (@sonu_sood)Talking to TOI, Sonu said, âItâs my honour to be able to do my bit for the doctors, nurses and para-medical staff of our country, who have been working day and night to save peopleâs lives. They hail from different parts of Mumbai and need a place to rest. We have already approached municipal and private hospitals and informed them about the facility.â

    Last year, the same hotel had landed Sonu in a lot of trouble, when the BMC found out that he was running a residential hotel despite not having clearances from the civic body. A BMC official said, âWe have still not received an amended proposal for the property following our remarks on the initial proposal.â

    Earlier, SRK also offered his four-storey office space in Mumbai to the BMC as a quarantine facility. Not only this, actor Salman Khan also joined the bandwagon by pledging to financially support 25,000 daily wage workers who have been hit by the 21-day lockdown.

    According to reports, he has already begun the process of transferring money into the bank accounts of daily wage workers from the film fraternity.

    While everyone is making the effort to support the needy at this hour, the Coronavirus cases in India are still dismally increasing and have reached 5734 cases, so far, and have claimed over 166 lives.

    The pictures of Drake's huge  AF mansion are here and well, it's at least ten times more extravagant and luxurious than any of us would've ever imagined. Honestly, it's not surprising since its Champagne Papi himself we're talking about and every single thing he does has to be over the top.His massive 50,000 square feet mansion in Toronto is the star of this month's Architectural Digest  and it's almost as if all the pictures are basically calling us all broke b*tches and we're just okay with it. I mean, just look at it!

    From a full-sized indoor basketball court crowned by a 21-square-foot pyramidal skylight to a 4,000-pound tub in the master bathroom made of faceted black marble carved from a single block, this house is definitely the epitome of luxury.

    © Architectural Digest
    It will be a historical landmark 100 years from now, I can just feel it.

    Lastly, Drake said, "I think the house shows that I have true faith in myself to take on this task when I was just 27 and see it through. I also think the house says that I will forever remain solid in the place I was born." Well, all we can wonder is how will it feel quarantining in there.

    Bollywood is known for dishing out many memorable scenes, dialogues and characters that stick around years after the filmâs release. 
    While the good is difficult to let go of, the bad isnât any easier to get over either. Over the years, most movie-lovers come to fall for on-screen characters, but what happens when one of those characters is killed off, much to our dismay?
    We know, the shock is paramount, the anger is worse and the feeling of betrayal is next level. Thatâs why we decided to vent our accumulated angst and curate a list of 10 such on-screen deaths in Bollywood movies that we havenât been able to get over even today:
    1. Shaalu Gupta - Masaan © Phantom Films
    It really felt unjust to watch this smiling face fade into nothingness after the tragic road accident hits her. This death didnât only shatter Deepak and break apart a love story that deserved to live long and old, but also hit us hard.

    2. Rahul Jaykar - Aashiqui 2 © T-Series
    Most of us failed to understand why Rahul couldnât fight harder and defeat his addiction for his own good, and for a real chance at the love he truly deserved. His end was definitely heartbreaking to watch.

    âKattappa ne Baahubali ko kyun maara?â became a recurring question. But no one can deny that it was utterly heart-breaking witnessing the kind and winsome prince happily put his life on the line and still perform his duty as a true son until his dying breath. *Sobs in the corner*

    Okay, very honestly, we hadnât seen this coming. Having done a good job at getting to the root of Punjabâs drug problem with Sartaj, and building a bond that was filled with hope, we were honestly expecting a better tomorrow for the couple. But of course, the director felt otherwise.

    Stockholm Syndrome or not, you have to admit there was some zing to Veera and Mahabirâs relationship from the very beginning. 

    And just when it appeared both of them had finally escaped their troubled past and found a safe haven, boom! Imtiaz decides to kill the guy.

    Based on the real-life story of air-hostess Neerja Bhanotâs tragic death during a terrorist flight hijacking in Lahore, Neerjaâs display of bravery and selfless service won hearts. 

    Her sacrifice saved so many lives at the cost of her own, and that left an indelible mark on the audienceâs hearts.

    Okay, this wasnât meant to hurt so bad, but it did. Aaravâs character in the film was so beautifully crafted that you couldnât help but grow a soft spot for the guy. 

    But it is his idea of selfless love that really makes you fond of him, until he is wrongfully taken away from everyone. Mohit Suri, weâre looking at you RN.

    It is never easy to imagine such a terrible ending for characters who bring much life into the frames. 

    Kalpana was one such chirpy, loud-mouth character who didnât deserve to die the way she did. We really felt Sanjayâs pain when he discovered her hammered body.

    Not quite sure why this one had the kind of impact that it did, but it did sadden us to see yet another love story cut short in the name of caste and community, that is so quick to issue death warrants to those who date to follow their hearts, just like Ram and Leela.

    Not the best closing scenes, Madhu and Adityaâs death in Dhadak is more than tragic, to say the least. As for our sadness level, looking at their bloodied bodies was bad enough to draw a 10/10 on the sad-o-meter.

    Sony finally decided to give us a glimpse of the PS5 hardware starting with the new DualSense controller. In case you missed it, you can learn everything about it right here.
    As you can see, Sony has redesigned the controller and it now looks a little different from the DualShock controllers that we're used to. Depending on whether or not you liked the previous controllers, you probably have a strong opinion about this one.
    Well, the controller has been getting some mixed reactions, but a lot of people don't seem to like it all that much. And of course, they've made memes on it. Here are some of the hilarious ones that we could find on the internet.
    Lol

    Who likes wearing pants? No one, of course, and with the entire world in a lockdown and people being forced to work from home during this pandemic, pants were the first thing to get abandoned.
    In an office, it's important to be appropriate and look presentable, but at home, we can all look however we please to look like and I think that's beautiful. The no-pants trend has caught up with everyone and I'm sure people's knees and legs are grateful to be finally free.
    Even TV anchors and hosts have fully embraced this lifestyle and it's good since who knows how long we'll be working from home and going pantless will remain the norm. People have actually given up on the formalities and are even going on-air without pants and one of the most relatable things I've seen recently is John Oliverâs Last Week Tonight contains dozens of clips of local news anchors across the country asking colleagues and guests on-air, âAre you wearing pants?â

    The juxtaposition of a seemingly presentable person with a proper tie and blazer on top with a pair of PJs as bottoms is just hilarious. Apparently, even John Oliver, after concluding his show that he filmed at home, stood up from behind a table to reveal shorts covered in a pattern of Grovers from âSesame Street.â
    Even John Krasinki has hopped on the trend and took it to another level. Towards the end of his YouTube show, Some Good News, he got up from behind a desk to reveal a red tutu on his lower half.

    He's rocking it, though.

    Even Stephen Colbert and John Oliver are having fun discussing the new office attire for everyone.


    Well, here's hoping we're all able to adjust back to a world where pants are required after all this is over.

    âLove is blindâ is a very common saying that we hear every other day from someone or the other. But, lately, weâve also realized that the world is a strange place and every new day is a competition to the birth of an even stranger incident.

    Now, coming to the point, we recently found out that at the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust people were surprised when a zebra gave birth to a zonkey.  Yes! A zonkey is a hybrid baby of zebra and a donkey. 
    © Facebook/The Shledrick Wildlife Trus
    A little confusing but true! The Sheldrick Wildlife Trust took to social media and wrote, âLast May, the SWT/KWS Tsavo Mobile Veterinary Unit received a call from the KWS Community Warden at Mutomo Station. A stray zebra ventured out of the Tsavo East National Park, and into a community bordering the park. She made herself right at home there, becoming an honorary member of a local womanâs cattle herd. This situation continued for many weeks until the story was aired on local media, and then our team was asked to help translocate the zebra back to a protected area.â

    Checkout the full post here-

    She was later translocated to Kenze Anti-poaching teamâs base in Chulu National Park. However, this year the team found the zebra with a tiny foal. 

    After a few weeks, they recognized the pair properly and figured out the real scenario. Now, as we earlier mentioned, âlove is blindâ and the zebra might have fallen in love with a donkey.

    Sounds unusual but if you look back at the life choices you have made when it comes to falling in love, you wouldnât find zebraâs choice that strange! Zonkey is a rare hybrid between a zebra and a donkey which means its opposite of âRab Ne Bana Di Jodiâ. Later on, the workers connected the dots and figured out how a zonkey was born.

    Turns out, according to the trust,âDuring her time living within the community last year, she had obviously become acquainted with an amorous donkey. The zonkey combines the sturdy body of its donkey sire and the striped legs of its zebra mother, which makes for a striking creature. While it should otherwise lead a normal life, zonkeys are mules, meaning that it will be unable to successfully breed once it reaches maturity.â However, the mother and the baby are healthy and living a good life. Also, the wonders of nature donât always give us what we want and will surprise you every day!

    With the Coronavirus about to hit 1.5 million positive cases all over the world, doctors and scientists continue to learn and figure out more and more about the form, structure and characteristics of the disease.

    While questions about the various stages of the virus popping up constantly, the best ways to stay safe during the pandemic and the various myths it is surrounded by, are already common knowledge.
    But the latest finding talks about a rather important factor of our day to day lives, especially under the lockdown that we are in.

    According to a February 21, 2020 report by the World Health Organisation, other Coronaviruses have survived for up to two years at -20°C. 

    Upon further studies, viruses like SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV have shown the capability of surviving for multiple days on different surfaces on the basis of a number of parameters like temperature, humidity, light, etc. The report also states that at refrigeration temperature (4°C), MERS-CoV can remain viable for up to 72 hours.

    However, in the news coverage by NBC Bay Area it is mentioned that the SARS-CoV virus could stay alive for up to 28 days in a low-humidity, low-temperature atmosphere which is similar to the inside of an average refrigerator. They claim this on the basis of a study done by the American Society for Microbiology in 2010.


    The SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is responsible for the ongoing pandemic behaves in a similar manner as the SARS-CoV virus.
    As alarming as that sounds, there are ways to make sure that the virus does not make it to the cold and low-humid environment of the fridge. 
    In an interview with NBC Bay Area, Dr. Warner Greene, a leading virologist and research scientist with the Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco, USA explains a few preventive measures.

    1. Use a bowl of alcohol based (or soap) disinfectant to patiently wipe down every container that goes inside the fridge.

    2. Considering the fact that disinfectants are hard to come by right now, Dr. Greene also suggested a DIY method as well. Mix â cups of bleach with 4 litres of water. You can also use soap with warm water.
    3. You must also make sure to wipe the place where you had kept the containers before placing them in your fridge.
    4. Finally wash your hands for 20 seconds with soap to get rid of any possible virus strains that got stuck to your hands while decontamination.

    Pets make everything better, it's a fact. Having a buddy who loves you unconditionally and is always there to make everything better is probably the greatest thing ever. And, a companionship is even more important than ever right now while we're going through a global pandemic.The entire world is basically under quarantine because of coronavirus and some people are having a better lockdown than others. One person who seems to be enjoying - and raising awareness about the situation - is none other than Arnold Schwarzenegger. He has such a diverse bunch of pets that are always by his side, more so during this quarantine.
