Mel Brooks and his son Max created a helpful and humorous video to demonstrate the importance of social distancing.In the video, Max explains that, while the coronavirus won't impact him even if he contracts it due to his young age, his elderly father is more at risk. Therefore, the two won't be interacting with each other for the foreseeable future out of fear that Max could unknowingly pass along the virus to his father. The two call on everyone to be smart and reasonable. They ask everyone to think not just if you yourself are infected, but also about your potential to unknowingly infect others.RELATED: Game of Thrones, Witcher S2 Star Confirms Coronavirus Diagnosis

To best implement the practice, Max reiterates what the Center for Disease Control has been stressing over the last week. Everyone should be washing their hands thoroughly and staying indoors if possible. If the need to go out arises, people should do their best to avoid crowds and stand at least six feet away from others.

Several celebrities have tested positive for coronavirus (COVID-19) over the last few days, including Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, Idris Elba, Olga Kurylenko and Kristofer Hivju.
