Reiterating COVID-19 Guidelines grammatically
- Use your face mask or mask when necessary (not, nose mask).
- Continue washing your hands in washbasin (not, wash hand basin or washing hand basin).
- You have to be responsible so you don’t contract the virus (not, contact).
- People are still testing positive for the virus (not, testing positive to).
- People quarantine when they have to stay somewhere so they don’t spread a disease, but people shelter in place so as not to contract a disease or any other form of danger. Note too that the ‘i’ in quarantine is pronounced like the ‘i’ in tin.
