Physical distancing is an effective strategy to keep people connected. The corona virus is known to spread mainly through respiratory droplets, especially when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Maintaining a safe physical distance is recommended to reduce transmission. WHO recommends keeping a distance of more than 1 meter from other people. Meanwhile, some health experts recommend keeping a distance of at least two meters from other people. A number of steps can be taken to increase the physical space between people, including staying at home more, working from home if possible, limiting guests at home, avoiding large gatherings and public transportation. The use of social media to support physical distancing can also be said to be efficient. The public can still interact with other people and get information related to corona quickly and easily. This can be seen from the actively asking social media about physical distancing or related to the corona virus in Indonesia in particular.Keywords: Mass Communication, Social Media, Physical Distancing
