Transmission of viruses between humans happens when someone comes into contact with an infected person’s secretions, such as droplets in a cough.
It can also be transmitted by coming into contact with something an infected person has touched and then touching your mouth, nose or eyes.

It is worth mentioning that Salama, born on July 4 in 1977, studied in Kuwait during his father's employment as a media consultant, and then moved to Cairo after joining the modern Institute of Computer Science.
He entered into the world of fame and success by chance when he auditioned to "Egypt International Films", a company owned by prominent director Youssef Chahine, after it sought new and fresh faces and talents.
Salama underwent several tests in front of the camera and was nominated for 1998 film “Ark el Balah” but did not co-star in it.
He followed Chahine by chance. In the first interview, the prominent director asked if he liked to act to which Salama replied that he loved singing a lot more. Chahine asked to sing any song he wanted.
Salama sang “Ana Lak Ala Toul” by Abdel Halim Hafez, once in front of Engy, his female co-star in 1997 film “Al Masir”, and once in front of Khaled Youssef, each got a different impression each time, which impressed Chahine with his performance and spontaneously.
He worked with during his career with a number of directors, including Youssef Chahine, followed by Tariq Al-Arian, Khaled Youssef, Saad Hendawy and others, which weighted to his artistic talent.
Salama‘s latest artistic work is the 2019 TV series “Amar Hady”, which premiered in Ramadan.
Amar Hady also stars Aya samaha, Hamza ElEily, Yousra El Lozy, Mohsen Mohie Eldein, Dalia Mostafa, Ashraf Zaki, Kareem Qassem Souror, Hadi el Gayar, and others.
