COVID-19
by Manuela Molina Cruz
Hello! I am a virus, cousin of with the Flu and Common Cold. My name in Coronavirus. I love to travel… and jump from hand to hand to say hello. ▲ Have you heard about me? How do you feel when you hear my name? I can understand you feel confused, I would feel the same way. Sometimes adults get worried when they read the news or see me on TV, but I am going to explain myself so you can understand. ☐
When I come to visit, I bring difficulty breathing, a fever and a cough. I don’t stay with people for too long, and almost everyone gets better. It’s normal to worry, but the adults that take care of you will keep you safe. You can help by washing your hands with soap and water while singing a song. You can sing your favourite song, the happy birthday song or the alphabet song. ◊ You can also use hand sanitizer and let it dry on your hands without moving them and counting to 10. Once your hands are dry, you can get back to playing!
If you do all of that and stay at home if you can, it stops me visiting so many people while the doctors work to find a vaccine that will allow me to say hi without you getting sick. ∞
