blog post#3 pt two:

In March 2020, I remembered being in school in my first-period health science class doing an assignment on preventing the spread of covid. I was working at Zaxby’s, a fast-food restaurant in Florida, things started changing radically; restaurants were closed for inside dining for a while, but the drive-through was open a lot of places were to go only. Playing sports was difficult, especially for student-athletes. We couldn’t play and get highlights. We couldn’t do what we love. We could work out by going to the gym either the pandemic was that bad. Academically, we weren’t getting that classroom time we needed to our teacher in person, like hands-on things.
Even some people found it difficult to pass their classes. Even some people had trouble focusing on school when so much was happening around them. Many families lost loved ones due to covid 19. many people still had to be quarantined for 14 days after traveling. Some people had to stay away from their elderly family members so they wouldn’t bring them into contact with the virus, and some people couldn’t even see their families because they had the virus. Some people were getting sick and couldn’t come in for work. So, the business was short of staff we could be outside. I feel like something or someone is trying to control the world dangerously, and it’s unnecessary. Going out in public is not the same. We have to wear masks because every store has face-covering required for entry policy it working so far. Still, it’s scary because wearing a mask does really stop you from catching it, but it does help you prevent the spread when visiting someone in the hospital. Even doctors always wear masks for protection. Everyone was shopping for the same things, which caused a shortage of toilet paper, hand sanitizer, disinfection spray, even masks. If your mom is anything like mine, you know, scared of everything and believing everything the news says. My mom was afraid of us leaving the house and returning to bring germs to my baby brother; she got a face-covering required sign on the front door. She even has the hand sanitizer dispensers around the house on the walls. So imagine just going to school one day talking about how to prevent the spread of the virus to doing school online from home in the middle of the year because of the virus. The cases were getting outrageous. Everybody was quarantining everybody has to be cautious going out in public and practice. Continue to practice social distancing staying 6 feet apart, listening to music, and doing school work. I watched Netflix series like Jane the virgin money heist, just things trending on social media. I even started looking at college because, at first, I was thinking about joining the military. Still, this pandemic made me want to become a doctor or nurse in the medical field to help prevent future viruses.
