Hotel was shut down due to Coronavirus

Summary 

“Coronavirus: Tenerif hotel with hundreds of guests locked down” tells us that the hotel in Span’s Canary Island has been locked down due to Italian doctor who test positive for coronavirus. This situation make more than one hundred people were command to stay in their rooms to notice symptoms and test for coronavirus. However, there are some concerns about five or six hundred people who stay in this hotel during the time that Italian doctor stay and they left the hotel before it was locked down. Therefore, there are possibility that some people who left the hotel will be infected with coronavirus and spread the virus in their home town or wherever they go.

First time when I heard about coronavirus, I think it wouldn’t be very dangerous and this virus would be eliminated in a shot time because it just spread in small market in Hubei, China. However, in this current situation, coronavirus is very dangerous and it’s spread to other country so quickly. More than 84,000 people are known to be infected and more than 2,900 death as this disease is airborne and it would infect easily by spread between close contacts such as talking with patients or touch their droplets when the patients cough or sneeze. Moreover, nowadays there is no specific treatment, doctors just use existing drugs for virus such as Ebola and HIV to curing so it means you would be dead if you are infected this virus. 

Hence, I am very alert in all new news about coronavirus because it’s very close to Thailand and it would affect on all people in the world. From the news that I interested I think it very scary news because more than five or six hundred people who stayed in the hotel during the time that the man who has tested positive had been staying would be infected coronavirus and it would make situation worse than the present time. To illustrate, coronavirus would make people more ill or die; in addition, it would make economic crisis because many towns were commanded to shut down so that it probably make global economies would be bad. 

To conclude, I think coronavirus does not effect on human health only but also effect on other parts of their life such as economic, social and etc.

  1. When WHO suggested that you should not wear a mask if you are not sick, I disagree with them. People may not be sick because of Covid-19, but they can be carriers. The carriers can spread the virus as much as the patient of Covid-19. If I worked with them, I would suggest everyone wear a mask.

    However, there are few problems to be fixed. First, most people don't know how to wear a mask properly. Every government should help WTO educate their citizens every way they can, such as news, commercials, and announcements in villages. Second, people who work in public health are facing risks of mask shortage. Every government should help factories increase production of face masks. Also, they can change some factories into face mask factories as Japan did. Then, the government should distribute face masks to people in public health before citizens. Citizens who are not sick may wear different kinds of face masks other than surgical masks. Last, every government should encourage people to stay at home unless there is a necessary reason. If people stay at home, they don’t need to use a face mask.

    Personally, I currently don’t have any surgical masks at home. I have a PM2.5 mask because I have allergies and asthma. Now, I’m running out of face masks. I’m going to make my own mask from my handkerchief. I hope things will be better soon.

    1. In paragraph 2, line 2, it is supposed to be WHO instead of WTO. They are different organizations.
