The coronavirus has taken the form of an epidemic from a simple virus in the last five months. The virus, originated from a small city in China, has spread to more than 200 countries of the world today. So far, this virus, which has killed 2 million 76 thousand people by infecting more than 40 lakh people, will be controlled or eradicated one day. Still, the lessons it has given to the world, it can prevent further diseases, will make us successful in fighting and winning.

According to new research, if we continue this practice of hygiene even after the coronavirus is over, it will reduce the risk of common infection by 50% in the future. Not only this, but dependence on antibiotics will also be reduced by around 30% worldwide. This study has been published in the American Journal of Infection Control.

Scientists believe that if we continue this practice, we can prevent many fatal diseases.
