As viral fever has its strong grip among people in this season and is generally communicated through respiration, it is often advised to keep special cautions to remain far from people with cold and cough, use masks, wash hands and mouth with soap and consume boiled water.
People travelling through public vehicle should be highly alert to keep precautionary measures to avoid such problems.
