Five things you can do to travel safely with the fear of an imminent third wave around

It has almost been a year and a half since the covid restrictions first started, and we all have undeniably developed profound anxieties when it comes to traveling. The travel sector has witnessed inevitable changes since the onset of the pandemic, and all the changes have been around ensuring safety and reducing the impact of the threat from the virus. Since the travel restrictions around the world have been relaxed, people are starting to travel again for work, leisure, and other purposes. While it is more than refreshing to be able to travel again, it is essential that you keep your guard up since there are possibilities for an imminent third wave.  

Here we have some essential pieces of information you need to keep in mind if you are looking forward to traveling safely during covid.

Masks All the Way!

Ever since the onset of the virus, governments, and health organizations have insisted on one thing, i.e., wearing masks. With the lockdown and restrictions relaxed, people are out and about, and this increases the risk of a third wave. Hence, it is essential to keep your masks on at all times when you are surrounded by people. It is even better to double up your masks when you are amidst a crowd, especially while traveling. If you are wondering if double-masking actually works, there have been studies that have proven that double masking reduces up to 95 percent. Hence it is safe to say that layering up your masks helps. You can also take a step further and use polycarbonate shields, such as the Nivaran90 Face shield, that will offer maximum protection while you are travelling.

Maintaining distance 

It might be inevitable to stay away from people when you travel, but you sure can try to avoid heavy crowds wherever possible. As simple and straightforward as it sounds, it can make a lot of difference when it comes to the risk of getting infected. While it is not entirely practical to maintain distance during a flight, you can try to keep your distance from people while you are waiting at the lounge or when you are in the terminal. You can also avoid walking around in bus terminals, railway stations, and airports not to be exposed to many places or people. 

Watch where you stay

When you are travelling, it is quite inevitable that you have to stay somewhere, and you need to find the right place to do so. It would be best if you did a bit of research on the hygiene standards of the hotel you are planning to stay in. Choosing a hotel that follows proper sanitary protocols must be one of your top priorities. Some hotels even provide you the option to request rooms that have not been occupied in over 24 hours. This will ensure that you don't catch the infection because of the previous occupant. It will not harm to carry your inflatable pillows and bed sheet if you are willing to do a bit more.

Pay attention to your clothing

With the COVID infection around, it is better to pay attention to what you wear while travelling. It is advisable to wear outfits that cover your body completely. Try to avoid open-toed shoes, as it increases the chances of contact and infection. You can also wear goggles since the virus can enter your system through your eyes. Whatever the case, limit your contact with people and surfaces. Always keep your socks on during air travel to avoid your bare foot touching the ground while undergoing security checks.

Hygiene is key 

All the preventive measures you take against Covid will be for nothing if you do not maintain proper hygiene. Besides minimizing your contact with people, It is also better to carry sanitizers, disinfectant wipes, tissues, etc., to make sure you keep yourself and your surroundings germ-free. Then, even if you are exposed to the virus, the possibility of it getting into your system and infecting you is very less. Besides sanitizing your hands, it would be more efficient to sanitize the surfaces of objects you get in contact with often, such as mobile phone screens, laptop screens, keyboards, mouse, seats, etc. This applies to the surfaces that you get in contact with within the vehicle you travel, such as tray tables in trains, flights, screens of the entertainment systems, and so on. You must also be very careful while accessing restrooms in public areas, flights, trains, etc. 

It is quite important to be aware and cautious throughout your journey and take the necessary safety measures. The measures can include boosting your immunity, sanitizing thoroughly and regularly, and so on.
