Coronavirus (COVID-19): an awareness post

4/1/2020

 
-By Ian Mackenzie
Hi everyone, I'm Ian. Before we begin, and thrust ourselves into a boatload of crazy scientific stuff, let's ask a question. What does it really mean to get sick, or have a virus? To answer this, we’ll have to take a few steps backward, and cool down our anxiety.  

 To make things simple, [novel] Coronavirus [SARS-CoV-2]--which causes COVID-19--was spread between people who are in close contact with one another within 6 feet. Let's leave the origin to that. To understand why there has been a pandemic spread all over the world, that’s harder to explain. One reason is insanitation. We recently learned that we have been washing our hands the wrong way. For one thing, remember to wash with soap and water. For another, make sure you do it for about a minute. It may seem tedious, but it’s worth it. Wash your hands at least four times every day.

I think you should be fine. Also, make sure to wash them after physical contact with others and when you get home from public areas. I think that's all I know, and all I can tell you.
 
Peace out, Bulldogs. Make sure to be healthy and stay safe. We’ll get through this together. I’ll see you in my next post!
