Sheikh I read in one of fatwas(fatwa number: 333514) on islamqa.info that states that one who fears being getting infected with covid19 can pray at home and not offer congregational prayer. Should I follow this fatwa?

ANSWER:

If they are sick then they must pray home but if they’re normal and go out to do other daily activities like school, shopping, office etc then they must pray in the masjid while taking the necessary precautions and safety instructions.

Is it allowed that the hands are covered from my long head scarf during prayer, (I’m not wearing gloves) so just face can be seen (there are no non mahrams just me alone)?

Is this correct ‘we have start moving to next position in salah only after the imam reaches the next position ‘ eg : we should start moving to ruku from the time imam reaches ruku . What to do if we can’t see imam ?
