Maintaining social distance is the way to go to help flatten the curve. At a time when the world is battling the coronavirus outbreak, maintaining a physical distance, especially while stepping out for buying necessary items or visiting a medical facility, is important.
And as it is said, ‘Necessity is the mother of inventions’, a shopkeeper in Kerala has found an innovative method to serve his customers and simultaneously maintain a physical distance from them. The method has earned a lot of praise from many people online, including Congress leader and Thiruvananthapuram MP Shashi Tharoor.
