Where did it come from?
It is my understanding that the COVID19/Coronavirus originated from Wuhan, China. Since the Chinese government delayed communicating to other countries about the Virus it was able to spread throughout the states at a rapid pace. The Virus can only spread if it has a host, when people would travel internationally at the time, they didn't know how bad the virus really was. People have a lot of theories as to where the virus came from but this is my point of view. -

Covid affects peoples lives
When there were more covid cases reported across the world my mom started taking all the precautions necessary to stay healthy. We do not have many family relatives so when we found out that my Aunt got Covid19 and she was in the hospital we were worried. I had only seen my aunt when I was little, but my mom had known my aunt her whole life. My Aunt is still in the hospital right now but we are hoping and praying she will become healthy and safe again. -

Rules to follow
Covid has affected the way we can see people. Whenever you go out to a store or school you have to wear a mask. Honestly, I am glad that they are enforcing the wearing masks rule because it is proven to have the germs spread less easily. If we can limit the number of cases by wearing a mask I am all for it. Also, we need to stay 6 feet away from people if we aren't wearing a mask. I understand that but at the same time, the germs can still spread throughout the air. All you need is to breathe it in through your lungs and you’ve got Covid. I still think that these procedures are making an impact. -

Virtual Learning
Virtual learning hasn't been too hard but one of the major things that are a problem for me is speaking up in class. Since we are not in actual school I have not felt the need to participate as much. That is a bad thing because some of my teachers may feel like I am not paying attention even when I am. Another thing about virtual learning is that I haven’t talked to any of my classmates. The only time I talk to my classmates is when we are put in a breakout room on zoom together. One of the good things about being on virtual learning is that my grades have gone up because I have been less distracted by my classmates. -

When COVID19 came
When I heard that the disease COVID19 had entered California I never thought that it would be as bad as this. Wherever we go we have to wear a mask, and we can rarely see other people because we are frightened that we might catch this horrible disease. The first time I heard of it was when my friends called me and they said that their school was being shut down. This disease was spreading like wildfire. My school had not shut down yet but my parents started getting very worried. They started having me bring disinfectant wipes to wipe down my desk each time I entered a new classroom. Then came the day that we had to go on lockdown. I told myself that it was going to get better and I would be able to see my friends again, but soon after zoom started, the school year was over, and here I am nearing Christmas in 2020. At home still in quarantine. I hope it gets better soon.
