The fact about Corona Virus being a deadly virus is real. It is known as an invincible enemy, and it is not an easy one to eliminate from planet earth. It is, however, good to work as one in the world to be safe without corona by systematically eliminating this virus from our life.

To my understanding, there seems to be not much heard on the Corona Virus in terms of research done on it. There are things we can do to continue training or we will be inactive and we will have poor health status.

We need to know that it is important to stay where we are and especially stay in the house. We should, however, keep ourselves active. We could run at MacRitchie Reservoir, Parks, as the space between one to the other is reasonable in term of distance. This act of keeping ourselves fit can increase our vitality. 

It is also important to not just exercise but also eat healthy food which could increase one vitality. Fruits like berries are good for the body as they have high anti-oxidants. Moreover, we have food which has turmeric, which has the highest antioxidant index, to make us have high immunity.

As for Corona outbreak, my advise is for people to do exercise in the gym. If not much people are using the gym, it is good to do. One should be careful about hygiene etc. One should use one's towel.

If one does not exercise during this period, it becomes disadvantageous, as one will become unfit and for corona to leave our lives is still an unknown thing. We become conscious of what food to eat, to be healthy and increase vitality and immunity, and these comes when we are conscious of health and fitness as important in our lives.
