"Be responsible": 1+1 launched a series of social videos with the channel's stars about the coronavirus

The "1+1" channel launched a series of social videos with a call to be responsible and take care of loved ones in the emergency conditions of the spread of the coronavirus epidemic. They starred popular presenters of the channel: Dmytro Komarov, Natalia Moseichuk, Kateryna Osadcha, Ruslan Senichkin, Nelya Shovkoplyas, Lyudmila Barbir and Yehor Gordeev.

The main slogan of the videos is "Take care of yourself and your loved ones." Also, in support of the initiative, the "1+1" channel launched the corresponding hashtag #BeResponsible.

The presenter of TSN and the talk show "Right to Power" Nataliya Moseychuk gives advice in the video: at the first signs of a respiratory disease, do not ignore the problem and immediately call the family doctor. "Don't be frivolous, take care of yourself and Ukraine!" says the presenter.

Dmytro Komarov, host of the "World Inside Out" program, urges Ukrainians to stay at home during the quarantine period, because life is more important than any urgent matters. "Now going out into the streets of the city is a big risk for you and those around you," the TV presenter emphasizes.

In addition, the presenter of "Worldly Life" Kateryna Osadcha calls to show concern for the elderly, who are in the highest risk group of contracting the virus.

And the presenters of "Breakfast with 1+1" advise to refrain from hugging and remind about the importance of regular hand washing and disinfection. Ludmila Barbier appeals to the audience to follow the doctors' recommendations: "Let's act in advance to prevent the mass spread of the virus in Ukraine!"
