Social distancing is apparently the only way to stay safe from the coronavirus that has affected lakhs of people around the world.
While the government is urging people to stay indoors, it is up to us to follow the rules and Kerala is surely leading the way in this.
Recently, a picture of people standing at a safe distance from each other outside an alcohol shop in Kerala went viral.

Now, another picture from Kerala, showing a shopkeeper maintaining a safe distance from the customers while selling supplies is doing rounds on the internet.
