Corona-virus Continues to Spread

With the Corona-virus slowly spreading, the stocks are going down just as fast. Not only is the stock market dropping, but the Trump administration is being blamed. 

This is a health crisis that needs to be addressed by the President to ease people’s nerves. In times like this, the people need to know that they are going to be protected and not get sick too.

The virus has spread to Washington, Oregon, California, Utah, Arizona, Nebraska, Texas, Wisconsin, Illinois, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, New York, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and North Carolina. 

Regardless of how many states the virus has hit, there have only been 163 confirmed cases in the USA. This means we have little to nothing to worry about.

According to the New York Times, “The number of patients treated in the United States remains a small fraction of those diagnosed overseas, where thousands of people have died and tens of thousands have been infected. Most states have not had any confirmed cases.”

Even though California just declared a state of emergency after the first Corona-virus death, it is very unlikely you will contract the virus if you practice healthy habits such as washing your hands and making sure to cover your coughs and sneezes.
