Hi guys !

My name is Steve, I am thirteen and I live in the suburbs of London in a


small terraced house with my parents, Garett and Kate and my two sisters Ann,
seven and my other little sister Sue who is two. Mum stopped sending us to school
a few days ago and the government decided to close all schools in the UK last
Friday. But why ?Well, like millions of people in the world we are stuck at home
to help slow down the transmission of that deadly virus : the Covid -19 which
attacks people’s lungs, also called Corona virus because it looks like a crown
,bloody crown I would say. It all started in a city in China, Wuhan in December
2019 from some bats and pangolins on a market. Then,they decided total confinement
there, but because of all the means of transport and people travelling it has slowly
spread all through the entire world with countries more or less concerned.At first we
were asked to wash our hands regularly, to cough in our elbows and respect distances
between people, but people didn’t really realize the threat, so in Europe the situation
got terrible in Italy first where total confinement was decided followed by Spain,
France etc.So now we must all stay at home as much as possible, teachers send us work
thanks to the internet, when it works !!!! Then we play games (video games or board
games) we read, we watch TV or listen to music. Mum is working from home as well, but
Dad, has to go to work as he is a doctor in the Royal Brompton Hospital in London !He is
getting very worried because he sees more and more ill people, and this illness is very
dangerous for elderly and fragile ones. Thank God, we have a little back garden, because
staying all confined can be scary sometimes, especially when my little sister Sue starts
crying. I can’t imagine how people manage in small flats in big buildings. But as Dad says,
I am afraid this is what we all have to do if we want to slow down the propagation of
that virus and save as many lives as possible. So take care of yourselves and your dear
ones !!And don’t forget to thank doctors and nurses for all their work!!!!!
