Patient's Query

Hello,

What guidelines should I follow not to get COVID-19 in a zoo? My husband and I will wear face masks, and we will be far from people. Hopefully, there will not be many people.

I would appreciate your help, please.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I can understand your concern.

Are you guys vaccinated? Is there any previous history of COVID infection in any one of you? Which mask will you use?

I suggest you take alcohol-based sanitizer also for frequent hand wash. Please reply to me with answers to the above-asked questions so that I can guide you better.

I wish you good health.

Thanks.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Yes, we are vaccinated. My husband will wear a cloth mask with two to three layers, and I will wear a K95 mask. We are both fully vaccinated, and I had the Pfizer booster, so did he. We have never had COVID-19 before but would like to go to the zoo and park.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

No need to worry. Wear masks, and use alcohol-based sensitizer frequently for hand hygiene. Keep six to eight feet distance from others.

I hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. I wish you good health.

Thanks.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have some questions.

  • Are most home health test kits accurate, including the I Home health test kit?
  • If people with the virus touch things and others touch them, can they get sick? What are the possibilities?
  • Also, can I get sick if my husband talks to someone without wearing a mask and then talks to me (I have two masks on)?

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Are you talking about coronavirus? Yes, the standard health kits are accurate in diagnosis.

Regarding the second question, it is not 100% true. There are two things to be considered. Infection and disease. If the infection is mild and the individual has good immunity, took vaccines, he or she may not develop the disease.

Regarding the third question, the chances of getting infected are less if you are two masks.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Thank you for the answers.

If the person with whom my husband talked tests negative, will my husband also test negative?

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Yes, he will also test negative.There is no need to worry.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

If someone sniffs at me on the back of my head, is that direct or indirect contact? Will it make me sick even if the other person is at two feet distance?

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

There are less chances of infection.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My husband did not wear a mask today and collected package from a delivery guy who was not wearing a mask either. Also, my husband spoke for five minutes with his brother from four feet distance. Both did not wear masks but are fully vaccinated and also took a booster dose. Can my husband get sick?

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

No, he will not get infected.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Can we get infected if we use a robot vacuum cleaner that we ordered online without wearing a mask?

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

No, you will not get infected.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Will the vacuum cleaner spread the virus if it arrives from a different place?

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

No. Please do not worry.

I hope this helps.

Take care.
