Social distancing; mask -properly wearing and good open ventilation of areas where you stay and move about about are most important as the infectivity is very high in this variant—repeated hand washing also is equally important. Daily steam inhalation; warm saline gargle and drinking 12-15 glasses of warm water -boiled with ayurveda herbs and leaves may give some benefit-at least by improving confidence of the person—which will improve immune status of the person.
