COVID 19

-Reshma Ramesh. J

The virus that spread from Wuhan city in China in 2019, Corona
virus, caused Covid-19 (Corona virus disease 19).This virus spreads

through contact from an infected person. We've to abide social
distancing to contain it. When an infected person sneezes or coughs,

we've to protect our nose and mouth with hand towels and face

masks to avoid further infection. We can prevent the spread of virus
by frequent cleaning of our hands with soap or sanitizer.

In India, prevention of spreading of the virus is named as 'BREAK

THE CHAIN'. The virus enters our body by contact with a virus
infected person which may destroy our entire immune system and

make us infected too.
To prevent spreading of corona virus, our state government is

implementing effective measures. Our state government is a role
model for our whole nation because of our strict Lockdown rules.

The government has provided free rationing and community

kitchens to ensure food availability for all and avoid panic. They
have also figured out solutions for the salary cut down of the

labourers in government and private sectors. To identify the positive
cases quickly, the government had implemented rapid tests.

Thus we've to maintain social distancing and frequently wash our

hands using soap or sanitizer. We students have to utilize this free

time for creative works, reading books and engaging ourselves in
household works with our parents. To help the government and our

people during this pandemic we've to 'stay home’.

Let’s break the chain
