The Impact of SARS-CoV-2 on Students
At the beginning of the pandemic there was mass confusion and scares about what was to come of this new, unknown virus called SARS-CoV-2 or COVID-19. Once widespread outbreaks were prevalent, everyone was sent home from work and schools. A lot of smaller businesses could no longer make rent and went out of business, and many people did not know how they were going to make ends meet. However, one of the most vital impacts, was on our students in upper elementary and above. Many public and private schools, from elementary to high school, did not make any school work necessary to be completed in Oklahoma, and as a result, created a gap in the knowledge needed for the continuation of schooling in the years to come. For freshmen college students, as I was at the time, if you were living on campus, in the dorm rooms and apartments, many of us were given notice that we had two weeks to move out unless we had extenuating circumstances. Additionally, all of our classes after spring break were moved online (in the best way possible) but often times were unsuitable to the in person experience. As a Microbiology Major enrolled in several different science classes with labs, it was nearly impossible to get the necessary experience to properly understand the laboratory material. As a result, this made it more difficult in the semesters to come to understand what was required of me, due to the lack of knowledge of materials I would have learned had I been able to attend my labs. Because of the severity of this virus and the rapid spread which sent everyone quarantining in their homes, we may see a lasting impact, not due to the viruses long-term side-effects, but due to our educational generations having a detrimental gap in proper school education. -

What is the cause of the corona virus?
There are many possible things that could have triggered this virus, COVID-19. Some people believe that it came from a person that ate bat soup in China, made in a lab in china, came from a wet market in Wuhan, China, and more. But I believe that it either could have been made in a lab or could have come from the market in Wuhan. To me, these two reasons make the most sense to me because it seems kinda stupid that all of this could come from one person eating a bat. If it did come from a wet market in china, it could have possibly came from the animals that were there, they could have been carrying diseases, and sicknesses. Furthermore, it could be very possible it was made in a lab, they could have made this virus and set it out into the world. And you may ask yourself, why would they want to do that? I think China wanted to depopulate their country a bit, and "attack" the US. I am not sure if that is true but it could be a possibility. In conclusion, these both seem to be potential reasons as to why the corona outbreak began. -

My theory on the Covid-19
My theory on how the Coronavirus started was that it was just a normal disease that we had a vaccine for then some animal carried it and mutated it and made it far worse from what it was. My guess was that it started off as the flu or something like that but changed over time because of the mutation. I dought that it was caused by anything else but if I were to have to say something else I would think that maybe it was a man-made lab virus that accidentally got out to the public. -

What do you think about who or what is the cause of this current virus?
I think this virus came from China. I think someone made this virus in a lab and it somehow spreaded. This virus spreaded very fast and it escaped the lab. Too many people came in contract with this virus and thats how it spreaded so quickly. Big gathering of people also doesn't help to slow the virus done. -

Who is the cause of COVID
I think it either started in a lab or from a bat. I think some guy might have eaten a bat, and then gotten the virus and spread it. Or, it was made in a lab for some reason which i do not know. I think that the most logical answer is that it was the bat. -

The Beginning of Covid-19
At first, I heard that the virus came from a snake that had been infected by a lab in China. When I heard this I thought that it sounded like something out of a movie. I did not think that the snake story is how it actually started because the virus had just begun and we knew very little about it so how would we have already known how it started. A few weeks later I found out that the virus came from a bat that someone ate in China. As I was discovering new things about the virus it seemed more and more like something out of a movie or a storybook. -

The Origin Of Covid
The origin of coronavirus came from Wuhan, China. It started in a laboratory in China. Many people believe that coronavirus came from a bat but that's not true, I mean there are a couple of types of coronavirus that come from bats but the one we are dealing with was traced back to a lab in Wuhan, China. We were first told that it came from a bat, so we all followed it because we had no idea what we were dealing with. We believed anything major news would tell us, just blindly. It wasn't until I found out the truth that I truly know where this little cold came from. We should not blindly trust people until we can find the truth. Also, it came from China, we can't trust China so why would we listen to what they tell us about a virus that came from their land. Covid-19 came from a lab in Wuhan, China. -

Covid-19 Beginning
I was browsing the internet one time when quarantine just started, I didn't have much to do since we were supposed to be cooped up in the house all day. I came across a document that stated what was assumed to be the start of the virus. It said that It started in China which was already confirmed, and it started going on about how the virus started when someone ate a bat. I personally thought this was absurd, and didn't put too much thought into it. More people I knew actually believed this assumption was true, I didn't. Flash forward a couple of months and it's August and a new article comes up about how the virus was man-made. This one was actually believe-able. If this was true (I still don't know if it is) I would be pretty upset. 2020 kind of ruined everything it could. Let's hope that they're wrong and that the virus wasn't man-made. -

What I thought (or now think) about who or what is the cause of this current virus.
I think that COVID-19 was made in a lab. Not only do I think it was made in a lab but I think it was tied into an Election. Which caused certain things to happen which caused the result of the election. Therefore COVID-19 was made and used to corrupt America and I think it is tied into bioterrorism and biochemical warfare. That is what I think and still think COVID-19 is and was. -

The beginning of COVID
What I first learned about COVID-19 was that it was a flu created by people eating Bats in China. I heard that from social media. But then I heard those rumors were false. Now I think COVID was made by china in a lab to destroy America. -

Hoping Llamas will become Coronavirus heroes
A NYT article discusses "Winter," the llama and how she might contribute to a COVID-19 treatment/cure. Absolutely no mention made of the fact that llamas come from Peru. Nor is there any discussion of how this animal is treated or lives day-to-day. I hope it's not a horrible existence for her.
