Self-Isolation and Social Distancing is Key During This Time by Keona

It is important that you still stay home and be quarantined during this time. Many people are going out and caring less about this global pandemic. The coronavirus is something that you need to watch out for even to this day. There are many reasons why you should be aware of.

You should stay at home because the virus is currently active. Covid-19 is flying around in the air and can be consumed quickly and easily. This virus is still active because people are going outside and not social distancing. They are spreading their germs around. According to Robert Preidt, he says, "people can stop the spread by washing hands and social distancing." This is the first reason why it is important to stay at home.

It is also very key to stay home because of the death toll. The number of deaths and cases are not decreasing. The more people go out, the more the numbers increase. Cases and deaths are growing because people are not practicing social distancing once again. Many reports and articles have stated that "In Washington, there have been about 20,000 cases

confirmed from the past few weeks, as well as, about 1,000 deaths." This proves that numbers are increasing every day not only being the virus is every but, because people are not social distancing.

Staying safe and at home is necessary because there is still no cure to the current sickness. Vaccines take up to years to be finally completed. So, it is very hard to deal with the coronavirus now without a cure. Mayo Clinic Workers say, "Currently, there is no vaccine to prevent COVID-19, but researchers are racing to create one." Researchers are in the process of developing the vaccine so, for now, you should be conscious.

Continuing to stay home and inside is very helpful during this time. You might be bored and or wanting to go somewhere. But, think about how you staying home is saving people's lives. It is also preventing everything from becoming worse. You can prevent getting Covid-19, as well as, decreasing the number of cases and deaths by staying home and social distancing.
