TV channel PLUSPLUS and the Ministry of Health of Ukraine launched an animated video for children about countering the coronavirus

Children's television channel PLUSPLUS and the Ministry of Health of Ukraine launched an animated video for children with advice on how to behave during the quarantine caused by the COVID-19 coronavirus. The video contains official recommendations on behavior. Together with the PLUSPLUS heroes - Trikutya, Quadrik and Kruzhko - children will learn "how to arm yourself against the virus" in easy steps.

The video is available at the link . It emphasizes that: the child should not touch the face; must count to 30 when washing hands with soap; keep a distance from people who have a sick appearance; not to eat raw food, but only food prepared by adults. And all this will become a "heroic superpower" in countering the spread of the virus. In addition, the recommendations are available in the form of a poster that can be printed and hung to remind the child of important tips every day.

"In one video, we collected all the advice for children that they should be guided by at this time. The task of the video is to calm children at a time when adults may be panicking. We hope that our little cartoon will explain to children how to behave during quarantine, and will help parents to quickly explain the importance of such behavior," said Ivanna Naida , general producer of niche channels 1+1 media.
