Abstract :
One of the most important harms that threatens the world is the coronavirus. The virus has somehow affected all human biological functions such as economic relations, political decisions, and cultural actions. All the people of the world are in a bad economic situation, politicians make their decisions based on coronavirus statistics. Coronavirus has limited social relations and many customs have disappeared in the shadow of coronavirus. Unfortunately, in the second wave of coronavirus, the number of deaths has increased.1 To combat coronavirus, prevention is the best thing we can do by following health protocols. The most extensive reviews of worldwide studies also published in the Lancet Medical Journal have indicated the significant preventive impact of physical distance and the use of masks on the transmission process of the new coronavirus.
