As more and more lies keep getting exposed regarding the response to COVID-19 by the American Government, it becomes absolutely crystal clear how people occupying offices of power & influence have tactically risked millions of lives to gain petty political mileage, jeopardizing not just the concept of leadership but also the putting democracy at risk. Using top leadership mouthpieces, the truth has been time and again tactically misconstrued to encourage unsuspecting innocents to undermine COVID-19 and thereby neglect their own well-being. Now as the skeletons keep tumbling out of the closet, and bodies are buried by the millions, people of America have realized what a grave turmoil they have unknowingly created.

As if the pandemic in itself was not scary enough, using such a serious issue to gain political mileage and hold the nation at ransom is the final tipping point. In the race to usurp uncontested power, not only of millions of innocent lives been sacrificed but the real heroes of this tragedy, the safety of healthcare workers and first line response team have been duly compromised and their brave efforts have not been given the due recognition it warranted. If such a ghastly example continues to be the norm of the day, it will not be long till hell breaks loose and people lose all faith in goodness and humanity leading to the total collapse of civillized society.

Hence, with the deliberate intention to bust myths and expose lies, we have decided to come up with a new segment, COVID-19 Myths Vs Facts, where we discuss a raging Myth about COVID-19 that is doing the rounds of social media and dissect it for its authenticity before finally presenting the unadulterated facts to you.

Myth: Exposing yourself to direct sun rays or sunlight can help destroy COVID 19 germs

COVID19 disease germs are actually microscopic living organisms or viruses that require a healthy host body to survive. If the host body is healthy, it stays there dormantly without creating any unwanted health repurcussions. However if the same person, is moving freely through a crowd or congested public area, he has the capacity to pass the contagion to others. So weather rarely has any role to play with birth or destruction of COVID -19 produced disease germs. In the cold weather COVID germs become more actively involved in looking for a host body to avoid the unhospitable conditions outside.

Fact: COVID-19 germs are at home in warm weather freely roaming about the atmosphere looking for a host body to attack. An infected person or a dormant carrier of the COVID-19 virus will not only act as a carrier for germs to spread further but also encourage the virus to breed freely in encouraging conditions. Wearing Face Masks and using Hand Sanitizers in public spaces is highly effective in controlling the virus and restricting its free movement.
