00:00People are wearing masks on the streets, saying that they won't get corona. That's wrong.
00:04They must have taken shares of N95 company.
00:07They want the company's shares to increase.
00:10They won't benefit, the company will benefit.
00:16You know, there is a lot of WhatsApp forwards regarding eating garlic, vitamin C and applying sesame oil.
00:24Do you think it is an appropriate thing to do?
00:26Do you think that this is one of the things that you can do to cure such a deadly disease like corona, sir?
00:32Corona is a new disease. It's a new virus.
00:36The 100% public is not immune to it.
00:39The immunity level is zero.
00:41Therefore, it has been declared as a pandemic.
00:43Eating turmeric, garlic, vitamin C and sesame oil will cure the disease.
00:53This is wrong.
00:54These things are good for your health.
00:57But don't eat these things because they won't cure corona.
01:04There is a lot of confusion regarding masks.
01:06Some people are stopping masks.
01:08Mask is one of the things that you can prevent the virus.
01:12There are different kinds of masks available in the market.
01:15They are quite expensive.
01:16Do you think masks should be worn or not?
01:19People are wearing masks on the streets, saying that they won't get corona.
01:22That's wrong.
01:24People should wear masks if they have a disease like corona, so that it doesn't spread to others.
01:29When doctors wear masks, they wear N95.
01:34They wear it because they have to be safe from TB.
01:37You don't have to wear a mask just for corona.
01:40Let me give you an example from India.
01:42Sir, people are wearing N95 masks in the US and roaming in the market.
01:46This is so wrong.
01:47That's absolutely wrong.
01:49They must have bought shares of the N95 company.
01:52They want the company's shares to increase.
01:54They won't benefit, but the company will benefit.
02:01There is another myth, sir.
02:02Go near hot things and stay away from cold things.
02:05What is the truth behind it?
02:07People say that they drink alcohol so that the worms in my stomach die.
02:12This is absolutely wrong.
02:13It's a myth.
02:14Cold food doesn't kill the virus.
02:17If cold food killed the virus, then we wouldn't have any disease.
02:21Because in our body, cold and hot food are the same in the stomach.
02:26So to say that eating ice cream causes a disease, or drinking hot water will kill the disease,
02:33or drinking whiskey will kill the disease, is a myth and wrong.
02:38Start with your nose, keep your nose wet.
02:41That is only for those people who have dry nose, so that your hand doesn't touch your nose.
02:47It's not to save the virus.
02:49Your nose shouldn't touch your hand.
02:51If you keep your throat wet, it won't cause the virus.
02:54That's not correct.
02:55That's not correct.
02:58And people say that if you drink a lot of water, your whole body, small and large hands will remain wet.
03:03The virus will come out of the throat.
03:05This is also wrong.
03:06The virus is a respiratory virus.
03:10It is important to know that if your hydration is good,
03:14and if you have a flu or have a corona-like illness,
03:18then your dry cough will come out completely.
03:22But this will make the virus disappear. No way.
