Page 4 - THE TALE OF TWO VIRUSES

Joshua laid all day in bed. He was so sick that he could not
even lift his arm to feed himself. He got flu and fever since

yesterday. He had some cough, too. Though his mother was taking

care of him, his feeling became worse.
“Son, you really need to eat more and drink plenty of water,”

Joshua’s mother pleaded.

“No, Mom, I don’t want to eat. I don’t like the food you
cooked, either.” he insisted.

Joshua’s Mom was so worried. Joshua had chills and

continuous cough. His fever went up, down, then up. Later in the
afternoon, Joshua complained more pains on his head and chest,

he could hardly breathe.
