Time to Take Extra Care

With the Delta variant raging it’s time to show your clients, and potential clients how much you care about them.

Be transparent and show them the extra steps you are now taking—things that are not mandated, but that we, in the wellness industry know are beneficial and protective.

I just saw another Facebook post that jolted me. Even if you're healthy, the virus doesn't care.

Jean Guy de Gabriac, is the founder and director of World Wellness Weekend. He is fit, eats healthy, and practices a wellness lifestyle. On July 19 he tested positive for the Delta variant in spite of his two-step vaccination. He was in quarantine for 12 days and is now not contagious. It would have been much worse if he had not had the vaccine. He cautions how sneaky this virus is and to take extra measures.

Today, it hit very close to home. An employee at the physical rehab facility where my aging Mother is recuperating, tested positive for Covid. It’s pretty darn scary for everyone residing or working there and their families.

Many health experts and professionals across the country are back to wearing masks, especially indoors, to protect themselves and their families. They are also encouraging people to practice handwashing, social distancing and getting the vaccine to minimize risk.

Differentiate yourself from your competition with extra care steps.

If you haven’t had your vaccine get it, or test at least weekly. Same for your staff. Temp check daily. Watch for the symptoms. All variants have similar symptoms.

Wear masks and have clients keep them on whenever possible. This variant is far more contagious than the common cold.

Expect more variants. This virus is fighting for its life too. So it mutates. That’s the nature of a virus. Be well! Take care.
