It was about mid February when I first hear about Covid. I didn't think much of it because all it was to me was a disease in another country. I remember seeing classmates Instagram stories making jokes about it. I wasn't worried even if it did effect America it would be like the flu. I could never had imaged what state the whole world would be like. There was this time in science class when my friend coughed I laughed and said "wow you probably have covid". It was a joke and nothing more. A few of my Friends where on the schools Italy trip at that time. I was still talking with them so I figured the county was okay. But when they got back everybody was nervous and Italy shut down. None of them had Covid so I took it as a false alarm. A lot of the middle school became more worried and I didn't understand why the adults didn't care as much. I still don't know exactly why but my best guess is because it was on social media before the news.
