Solution

Smallpox is a disease caused by a virus called the Variola that results in skin rash. It is a contagious disease that spreads through tiny drops of an infected person's spit when he coughs, talks or sneezes. It can be spread through direct contact with infected bodily fluids or contaminated objects such as bedding or clothing. Hence,
  • Ramu should stay indoors.
  • He should cover his mouth while talking, coughing or sneezing.
  • He should not donate blood till he gets cured.
All these factors will help prevent the spread of his disease to others.
