COVID-19

COVID-19  NOVEL CORONA VIRUS

A virus is not alive.

It has no heart, no lungs, and no brain.

It is just one strand of RNA, wrapped in a ball of fat with spikes on it.

It has no legs - it can’t walk or run.

It has no wings - it can’t fly.

It cannot reproduce itself without help from a live human cell.

If it doesn’t find one in 14 days, it ceases to be potent.

So far, there is no effective treatment to stop it.

There are no known medications to cure it.

An effective and safe vaccine hasn’t been found yet.

Humans have to carry it from place to place.

If humans could stop moving for two weeks, there would be no pandemic.

Since that is impossible, rules are put in place to try to reduce the movement of people from one place to another, to slow down the spread. 

That is a lot harder now that we have towns with no walls around them, or city gates to close and drawbridges to raise.

Automobiles, airplanes, ships and trains have taken this virus all the way around the world in about five months.

There is now no nation in the world that is safe, and they won’t let you in anyway. Borders and ports are closed everywhere.

Best bet is to stay close to home, don’t breath on other people, and pray for a vaccine.
