Year 2020

Title (Dublin Core)

Year 2020

Description (Dublin Core)

February 2020. Football season is over. The Kanas City Chiefs just won the super bowl. People are still gathering for parties and get-togethers. I turn on the news - The first thing I saw on the screen was "Corona Virus". I had no idea what that meant. I disregarded it as something irrelevant to the world, but I was dead wrong. I went to school the next day (I'm in 7th grade at the time), and I keep hearing students whispering, "corona virus". At this point I knew something wasn't right. About a month later, I'm sitting in the car, in the driveway with my dad. At this point, I know that the corona virus came from China. I know that it's death rate is very very low, yet people are very very worried. I also know that for me, things are completely normal. I did not know however, that things were about to change. On the radio, I heard the voice of the LA county mayor, "I am issuing a mandatory stay-at-home order. Do not leave your house until further notice." I will never forget the events that took place in year 2020.
this is a story about the year 2020.
