When the Covid-19 outbreak started in China, it was not taken as something so serious. It was thought to infect few people and end just like Ebola did a while ago.
People continued to lead their normal lives while the Chinese continued to suffer in silence with the disease even being branded as ‘Chinese virus’.
Now the disease has taken a different course, the tables have turned and the epicenter of the ‘Chinese virus’ had shifted from China to Europe then to the US in a matter of months.
The virus has caused uncertainty, confusion, anxiety, and fear among the human race but it is nowhere near its end.
It is a sad time for the world, a time that we are all encouraged to come together and fight this ferocious infection with everything that we have.
