We are not new to the COVID 19 virus, it is an infectious disease caused by a new virus. The disease causes respiratory illness (like the flu) with symptoms such as a cough, fever, and in more severe cases, difficulty breathing.
Coronavirus spreads primarily through person-to-person contact. It is a respiratory virus, and, according to the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, it can be found in water droplets that form from respiration – the act of breathing. This is known as droplet spread.
To avoid the spread of the virus, many counties around the world have been forced to shut down from the daily activities as many people are asked to stay home to prevent the continuous spread of the Virus.
With effect to the lock-down, many people are forced to work from home while others are out of work. Millions of Europeans languish in isolation; people are seeking increasingly imaginative ways to keep themselves entertained for their mental health as explained by Jon Henley.
