According to the statement, Microsoft has joined with the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) so that, from now on, recommendations derived from this guide are shared, which includes the correct washing of hands, the interpersonal distance or the constant reminder that staying home is better.
Wash your hands like you’ve just touched a slime! Take your time, and use alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water. Don’t forget to sanitize your phone + keyboard to kill any nasties that have set up camp there, too! # BlockCovid19 #TomorrowTogether
