Celebrations marking the start of the Lunar New Year were muted in China following the outbreak of the deadly coronavirus, which has now spread to four continents. Chinese officials confirmed 41 people had died from the disease as a host of events were canceled across the country Saturday, as the Year of the Rat began."It was like Chinese New Year but with a lot less people," Dr. Diana Adama, a U.S. citizen who lives in the city of Wuhan. "As of tonight they are going to cut off all the cars." Okay this is really bad right? People in many places are getting these viruses and it’s spreading, to places like Australia, Malaysia, Nepal, Vietnam, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, France and the United States. This is a major impact of today. Originally today was supposed to be the chinese new year celebration, but us people aren’t able to celebrate it. Let's do something to stop this from getting to us and others. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends, We should wash our hands with soap after using the bathroom, before eating, after eating. We should avoid touching our eyes, mouth, nose, and face. Cover your mouth or nose with a tissue or this mask when coughing and sneezing. If you have a runny nose, cough, sneezing, sore throat, headache, etc that's a sign that you have coronavirus. Please, I want you all to stay healthy and keep your family nearby to check if they have coronavirus and get your flu shot if it will help get plenty of rest. Also, dear students of schools and colleges, whatever might be the disease, it usually spreads easily from students. Please keep yourself and surroundings clean and hygienic. If 1 student gets home with this virus, it will easily spread to their siblings and family members. Let’s all stay healthy and live a long life. Currently, there is no cure for coronavirus. But, we can prevent it by washing our hands often, and avoiding contact with sick people. Kind advice, keep yourself hydrated. Drink plenty of water, guys. If you feel like you have symptoms of getting sick, please check with a doctor as soon as possible. Don’t go to school and colleges until you are all cleared. Please once again take care and stay aware.
