Coronavirus Pandemic

The Coronavirus is a family of RNA viruses that are located in animals such as camels, cats, bats, and more. The Coronavirus gets their name from the electron microscopic image, which in reality looks like a crown. The Virus had began to expand throughout the Wuhan Province of China, which would later to expand to countries such as Mongolia, Vietnam, South Korea, and India. 

The Pandemic doesn't have a clear start date but people believe that it came from the fish or food markets that took place in the region. These stations usually do not have well cared animals and  have had people getting food poisoned. As of October of 2020, a Vaccine has yet to be found. According to American scientist findings, the Virus' numbers would start to decrease sometime between March 2021 and June 2022, which is still unclear.

Until the international community can agree that a verified vaccine has been found, we will continue to wear masks, use hand sanitizer everywhere, and to practice social distancing.
