With an intent to restrict the spread of the novel coronavirus and safeguard people from the adverse effects of the pandemic, many organisations have encouraged their employees to work from home. Amul recently took to Instagram to share a post regarding the same and urged people to follow self-isolation.

Since being shared about 19 hours ago, the post has received over 39,000 likes. It has also gathered tons of comments from people. Amul also shared it on Twitter and the post has received over 570 likes. While some praised the company for their creative post, others talked about the pandemic.

“Amul is always up to date and relevant!” wrote an Instagram user. “Amazing,” wrote another. “Also work out enough to digest all you eat,” suggested a third. “Stay safe people, self-isolate,” wrote a fourth.

A few days back, Amul shared a post highlighting the importance of washing hands to stop the spread of coronavirus. They shared an image sporting the Amul girl along with a one-line caption, “precautions against the Coronavirus!”
