COVID-19 - Say no to car sharing if possible
Like restaurant and multiplex, a shared car is a setting where COVID-19 can easily spread.
If for some reason, you can’t avoid sharing a car with another person, there are certain precautions the CDC recommends taking:
Try to only share a car with someone in your “bubble” who you would normally be spending time with anyway.
If using a car service, such as a taxi or Uber, sit in the back and put as much distance between you and the driver as possible.
Avoid using the recirculated air option for the car’s ventilation, use the car’s vents to bring in fresh outside air and/or keep the windows open.
Avoid contact with surfaces frequently touched by passengers or other drivers, such as door frame/handles, windows, seatbelt buckles, steering wheel, gearshift, signaling levers, and other vehicle parts before cleaning and disinfection.
Always wear a mask when going out, and especially when sharing a car or in any confined space.
Finally, in cars and ride-sharing, we want the windows open at all times. more

Mr. Radhakrishnan, I am afraid you are wrong that covid does not exist. It does, There are many strains, some weak and some very strong and you can contact them if you are not careful. You can have different symptoms with covid and that is what is so frightening but if you take precautions you can be cured. Most mild symptoms are like influenza but others affect the lungs, the digestive system and the throat. more

Then is the flight sharing is OK ? People should keep social distancing always wherever possible why don't they follow the same guidelines in the flight ? Because it is simply impossible and the whole covid 19 itself is a hoax and the entire India still believes because our Media is doing a perfect job of making everyone fear about covid by showing huge cases and high number of deaths happening. Do you really know that globally right from Jan 2020 till July 2020 the total deaths have come down drastically after this covid the reason being covid isn't creating much of death, it is the fear the media creating makes people to die. more
