There’s A Certified Free Online Course On Covid-19 So You’ll Stop Believing That Garlic Prevents Infection

Covid-19 this, Covid-19 that; the Covid-19 coronavirus is probably all you hear about these days.

And yet, how many of us can confidently say that we know everything about it? Or that whatever we know is accurate?

It doesn’t help that there are so many #fakenews and #myths about Covid-19 flying around the internet.

BuffLord95: My mother says my biceps can protect me from Covid-19. So I’m spending every single day working on bicep curls only in the gym.

Yeah, you get the idea.

To prevent people like the super cute Bufflord95 from believing, and telling others, the wrong things, an online course was launched today.

And it’s not just any course.

It’s An Online Course on Covid-19

On 11 Mar 2020, Gnowbe, a micro-learning platform and Ngee Ann Polytechnic launched a course on Covid-19.

And the best part? You don’t have to spend a single hard-earned cent of your SkillsFuture credit to take up the course.

The course consists of 5 micro-learning sessions and takes about 40 minutes to complete.

And the best part?

There’s a digital certificate available for you to show off on LinkedIn once you’re done.

Given how employers have worries about their teams getting infected and disrupting the company’s operations, a certificate showing you as an expert on the coronavirus will help you get hired. Probably.

Okay, jokes aside, it doesn’t matter if the course will help you get hired or not because the content within this course is infinitely useful.

Course Content

Through this online course, you will understand exactly what is Covid-19, how it spreads and how do you stop it from spreading.

Also, it’ll teach you how to use suitable personal protective equipment, how to deal with waste safely and the correct way to wash your hands.

Essentially everything you need to know about Covid-19 and how to stop it.

To take the course, simply go onto the Gnowbe website and sign up for it.

Legitimate Sources of Information

Now, you’re wondering, is the knowledge legit? How do we know whether the information within is true?

Could it be that garlic can really prevent infection?

No worries because the people who helped come up with the course sourced knowledge from nursing educators within the country.

The aim of the course is to let every single member of the public understand Covid-19 and apply the various ways to stop the spread of infection.

Couldn’t Have Come At A Better Time

If you were to read through Goody Feed’s articles today, you’ll come to realise that a lot of them has to do with how Covid-19 spread locally in Singapore.

According to Health Minister Gan Kim Yong, it’s all because of socially irresponsible Singaporeans.

Now, while we do agree that people who still go to work despite showing symptoms of Covid-19 are inconsiderate as heck, let’s give them the benefit of the doubt.

Some of the older people might not have been as well-informed about the severity of the situation as the younger ones who are on Facebook or Instagram all the time.

Plus, with all the fake news and myths running around the internet about Covid-19, people are confused about what they should be doing, what they shouldn’t be doing and all.

Plus, Your Parents Might Soon Be Able To Take The Course Too

Right now, there’s only the English language version of the course.

But it was reported that the people behind the course are looking to translate it into other languages as well.

With that and the entire course separated into bite-size portions of knowledge for easy digestion, your parents might soon be able to take it for themselves.

Which is great news because who’s the most vulnerable group against fake news and scams in Singapore?

That’s right, it’s the elderly.

Meanwhile, you can point them towards this website which will tell them all they need to know about Covid-19 in Singapore in four different languages.
