Recently designated as a global pandemic, the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) is already disrupting our daily lives and is expected to continue to do so in the weeks and even months ahead. In addition to worrying about the health and safety of family and friends, people are also rightfully concerned about their financial wellbeing. While these fears are natural, there’s good news, too: There are some steps you can take to stay safe and prepared through this public health crisis.

Read on for four tips aimed at helping you stay safe and sound — both physically and financially — during the coronavirus pandemic.

- **Make your own hand sanitizer.**
  
  One of the biggest defenses against coronavirus is practicing proper hygiene, including handwashing and hand sanitizing. However, not only is it hard to find hand sanitizer in stores at the moment, but price gouging can also be a problem. We’ve got a simple solution: Instead of wasting time (and gas) driving around looking for hand sanitizer, make your own [using this two to three ingredient recipe](https://www.thespruce.com/make-your-own-homemade-hand-sanitizer-606145).
  
  An added bonus? Your concoction won’t be full of toxic chemicals. And you can even use essential oil to make it in the scent of your choice. Our pick — especially if you’re feeling stress or anxiety? Lavender, rose, or jasmin.

To say these are uncertain times is an understatement. However, following these tips and maintaining a positive outlook can help you weather the challenges ahead during this unprecedented event.
