Stay physically active during COVID-19 with exercise as medicine	2020-10-23		.txt	text/plain	639	42	53	Many experts 4 have emphasised the importance of increasing healthy living behaviours and others 5 have indicated that we are now simultaneously fighting not one but two pandemics (ie, COVID-19, physical inactivity). 6 Immediate action is required to facilitate physical activity during the COVID-19 pandemic because it is an effective form of medicine 3 to promote good health, prevent disease and bolster immune function. Several organisations including the WHO, American Heart Association and American College of Sports Medicine have offered initial suggestions and resources for engaging in physical activity during the COVID-19 pandemic. For substantial health benefits, adults should engage in 150-300 min of moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity each week and limit the time spent sitting. In summary, this infographic offers as an evidence-based tool for public health officials, clinicians, educators and policymakers to communicate the importance of engaging in physical activity during the COVID-19 pandemic.	./cache/cord-344065-87x5y9o6.txt	./txt/cord-344065-87x5y9o6.txt
