Home Quarantine Workout Routine, Fight Coronavirus!

Coronavirus has been the talk in all social media, online and even offline. Since its outbreak in December 2019 in Wuhan, China, the government of different countries all over the world had their own way of fighting the virus and one of them is social distancing and recommends citizens to stay at home or what we call "Home quarantine." All members of the family are at home. I work from home. Aside from this work, all I think is food and drinks. Do you feel the same? Are you guilty about it? Now, let me share with you my home quarantine workout routine just to ease the guilt and of course, for healthy living.

Getting yourselves healthy and fit is one of the tools that you can do and help fight this Coronavirus. Of course, accompanied by eating healthy dishes such as veggies, fruits, and some fiber and vitamins rich food will suit our body for a healthier version of "us."

So, I woke up 11 in the morning. Turn the wifi on and start reading news regarding this virus. Then before I login to my laptop and start my work by 2:00 PM (Philippines Time), I try to do a 30-minute workout inside my room. Let me share with you my Home Quarantine Workout Routine.

Why do we need to be tested with HIV?

As reported by the Department of Health or DOH 7 last month, the state of HIV Cases in the Philippines most especially Central Visayas is alarming. Based on DOH 7 records, there were 8,104 people living with HIV in the region in 2018, and there is a seven percent increase in the first five months of 2019. If this trend continues, by 2022, there will be an estimated 10,279 people living with HIV in the region. (sunstar.com.ph) How can this be stopped? One thing can block the rise by knowing your HIV status. You can help by joining us on June 15, the National HIV testing day!

DEFINITION OF IMPORTANT TERMS

What is HIV?
According to HIV.gov, HIV stands for human immunodeficiency virus. It is the virus that can lead to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, or AIDS, if not treated. Unlike some other viruses, the human body can’t get rid of HIV completely, even with treatment. So once you get HIV, you have it for life.

What Is AIDS? 
AIDS is the most severe phase of HIV infection. People with AIDS have such badly damaged immune systems that they get an increasing number of severe illnesses, called opportunistic infections.



WHY DO WE NEED TO BE TESTED WITH HIV?

1.  We can stop the increase in HIV cases. 

If we are tested positive in HIV, that means we can eliminate or lessen the risk of transferring the virus to another person with sexual acts. And this means we will be more careful and be a responsible individual starting on.

2. We don't know what to do if we are tested positive.

Actually, this is what I was thinking when I was drafting this article. I haven't had an HIV testing before but I encourage my inner me to do it this weekend. I heard if tested positive, there's a free drug and treatment from our government. Here in Central Visayas, there are 13 treatment Centers that offer free meds and consultancy. And if in doubt, we can always call DOH or any City Medical Center for inquiries or call Love Yourself White House at 0927 873 7575 for details.

3. If we are tested positive, what will people say?

Personally, I'm in the stage of my life that I really don't fucking care! My apology for the word but seriously, it's our health and not theirs. And the best thing when you get tested this Saturday is that results are between you and the health worker. It will be kept secret and confidential. In addition, all volunteers or health workers are obliged never to disclose this information.

4. I've been a blood donor ever since so I guess I don't need to be tested with HIV.

WRONG! When you donate blood, it is more on donating blood and not for HIV testing purposes. Did you know that health worker needs your consent or permission prior to testing your blood for HIV? That means, during your bloodletting time, your blood was not tested with HIV at all. So, it's not safe to say you are confident. It's best to be tested.

5. I am not active in SEX but when I do, I always use a condom. So I am safe?

Safe yes but sometimes we tend to forget. Adding HIV testing as part of your sexual health routine is recommended.
