Dear Corona Virus
I'm not going to lie this is going to seem very harsh but here
we go because i have to be very honest with you, i don't like
things are changing right now, how my education status has
changed. Like no school until April 20th is just crazy, dont get
me wrong i love it but its starting to become a little tiny
annoying, but now all we do is do classes online where it can be
easy, but you know the teachers are making it hard for us, even
when they say " if you have questions email me, and I'll answer
it " when in reality they take years to even answer, and yes i
do understand they are going through the difficulties as we are,
but like its type annoying. One question i have is how were you
created? because right now we are all in quarantine ever since
you arrival. Don't get me wrong i feel that we can all learn
from you arrival, but why now? did we damage this environment so
bad that it has caused us to have to wear face masked
everywhere, and gloves to make sure we don't put these germs on
our face so we don't have to put so much bacteria on ourselves.
The way this is making our community is now having to deal with
no more hanging out whenever we want, we have to rush and grab
what we need from the supermarkets before it runs out, or wake
up early so you make sure you get something that you need before
it becomes packed. The way it changed how learning is by now
having classes online and now teachers have to plan a different
way of teacher, like for the kids that's visual learners, some
teachers have to make a video so the student can understand what
they are tying to do. Don't get me wrong i kinda like it because
you can wake up at whatever time you want to do your work,
unless it has a due date with a time, but it comes with the
stress on having so much work to do when you have some work
that's due at a time period. This changes many things now such
as now understanding to be very thoughtful of your health and
other peoples, if your sick to always remember to cover your
mouth if you cough, sneeze, even though people should already
know to do these things. But if you think about it, most people
would never be this much of a "germaphobic" if you never
arrived and teach them to care about someone else other than
just there health. But i do hope there is a way to fix all this
confusion that you have caused.

> Dear CoronaVirus,
> As much as I wanted school to get cancelled , it's been a
rough couple of days. At first I just wanted it to be cancelled
for like a week , but until April 20th that's too long. It's one
thing that school is closed for that long but because of you
there's nothing else for me to do except to stay home. Sometimes
I enjoy staying home, don't get me wrong, however sometimes I
want to go with my friends to the movies , a restaurant or
something . I hate how everything is closed just for you and
it's crazy how just to get inside a supermarket , sometimes you
have to go in as 2 at a time or even 1 at a time. You have
people taking essentials that a lot of people need when they are
already stocked up on it. Also, it’s sad that when you take one
little cough or sneeze because you have allergies or something,
everybody looks at you like you have the corona virus and you
are contagious .You even caused some deaths and that's really
painful to see and especially when it hurts some of the people
close to you.
>
> Even though you caused a lot of hurtful things, some positive
things came out of you too. For example, you kind of helped the
environment out because since things are shutting down the water
has become more cleaner in certain places. Also, since no one is
working in factories right now because of the shutdowns ,
there's no more pollution in the world. Now, we won’t
overpopulate which is great for our environment. You also made
people realize that they should always keep clean, wash their
hands which is great because germs would be spread much less. As
much I want to say these positives do sound good, you still hurt
me and the people around me.

I love how you explained how you felt about the causes that we
have gone through because of Corona and how you involved what
the environment is now facing which is a big change to us
because we're learning slowly how things may have to be for a
while now because how dangerous corona is towards us

Dear Mrs Coronavirus,
Im writing this letter to you from person to person, i've seen
what you've done, and the whole world is involved in putting a
stop to you. Somehow you find yourself being everywhere at once,
harming others without even making direct contact with them.
There is a lot of rumors surrounding your name, some that I
believe, and some that I don't. One claims that you will be gone
by the summer, something about you disliking the heat. However,
no one wants to wait for summer to come, people are so nervous
of your presence that they stay indoors all day, and when they
do leave, they stay six feet away from every other human because
no one knows what you look like. I don't think that you fully
understand what you are putting countless lives through
everyday. And this is why i'm writing this for you to read, not
only as someone who has seen the effects but someone who want's
to put a stop to them.
The main thing you have taken away from people is a sense of
security. You have put everyone on edge, and nervous of their
peers. No one wants to come in contact with you, and no one
wants to know someone that has. Even the government has said to
stay in doors, and to be aware of you. Numerous amounts of
deaths have been caused by you, so many that hospital supplies
are running low and the spaces where patients are being held is
even almost filling up completely. I'm not trying to argue but
convince you to stop. Think about the lack of income coming in
to families who have just been temporarily laid off from their
job, or even the kids who can't go to school and have to deal
with online learning. I won't beg but I can only write to you in
a way that may convince you of the evil you have done to this
world. Everyone wants to go back to normal, and that starts with
you.

Dear, Corona virus
You have affected our world in a very negative way and have
taken everybody by surprise. You have harmed many people around
the world and are spreading very fast. People that are older are
more at risk of dying from this virus because they may have
preexisting health conditions which make it harder to fight this
virus or may have a compromised immune system. This is scary for
people because a young person may have it and be able to fight
it off with no problem but can pass to someone older then them
that has a compromised immune system and could possibly die from
it. what makes this virus also so scary is that the symptoms
can take up to 14 days to show themselves, meaning that people
can have it without knowing it and can pass it on to lots of
people without knowing. The symptoms are similar to those of the
flu which makes it so that if someone feels they have the flu,
they may have it without knowing.
Some ways to slow the spread of this new is to quarantine
yourself. This makes it so that you don't come into contact with
many people so that you don't spread it or get it. If you feel
sick it is best to stay inside. You shouldn't touch your face
because it gets in through places like your mouth, nose and
eyes. Washing your hands as well because it makes it so you get
the virus off your hands and cant get it if it made contact with
your hands. It is also smart to keep distance from people so
that it cant spread like that. People are saying six feet is
preferred. Even though this virus is a serious epidemic people
are finding ways to try and slow the spread of it and keep
loved ones from getting it.

I like how Saniya expressed her feeling towards the event and
showed the negative side of the virus as well as the positives
that it brings.
I like how Michael worded his writing, he did it in a way that
shows his tone.

Dear Corona-virus,
You have taken the world by storm. People are panicking
and i know that you are a serious thing to be taken care of but
it is not entirely your fault. We as people are busy in our
lives, worrying about what to wear and not the things that
affect us both mentally and physically. Our president didn't
even think you would become the star of the spotlight. Entering
2020 we all thought this was going to be 'our year', however we
didn't even notice you during January nor February and because
of this you had time to infect over 700,000 people worldwide.
You are what we call 'a pandemic'.
Look imma give this to you straight, YOU GOTTA GO!! Its
boring being inside the house all day. I cant even get simple
supplies because these people are running all over the place
trying to stack up on things. And you know why they do this? Its
because of you, corona-virus. These online classes ain't it
either. Because of you, schools were closed down and now we do
things through the internet. I want you to leave because these
teachers is wildin' with the work they posting out. Please leave
our world, for the sake of humanity.
Sincerely, Victor
Reynoso

Dear Corona Virus
may you please stay inside your house and not come into contact
with other people. Since you have talked to others they have
taken your disease and spread it to others causing a pandemic.
Thousands of people are dying globally because of your actions
and it seems like you do not care, as you continue to go out. I
know that you was born in china, and due to your selfish act of
travelling millions of people are suffering. When would you stop
his cruel act of yours? Love ones are force to distance
themselves, people are getting fired with no money to take of
their families and the global economics is going down.
I am currently unable to go to school and forced to take online
classes to stop your disease from spreading. Some children can
not take online classes because they do not have internet or
computers in there houses. I am taking the NY State Regents exam
at the end of the year that I need to pass in order to get into
a good college. Once again your actions are affecting my
learning since I do not have a teacher to guide me while I do my
work in school, this might affect my regents score and many
other high school students living in New York. I really want to
tell you to disappear and go to a place no one ever heard of or
seen. This might sound hurtful, but it is the only way to save
society from chaos and return things back to normal. Many lives
would be saved if you take my advice.
Sincerely,
Fatima

> Hello Mr. Corona Virus,

> You have become the talk of this whole word during March after
being almost ignored by everyone in January and February because
the world had more important news to discuss during those times.
But now everyone talks about you and how your disease will
change the world in the future finally making us realize that it
isn't a nuclear boom that will exterminate mankind, but germs
and viruses such as yourself. In this global pandemic, you have
created, I feel at ease because of the low death rate, of about
2 %, and as I can finally enjoy the shows that I wanted to watch
but couldn't because of the amount of school work I receive.
Thanks to you I am now enjoying myself at home, eating food
whenever I want to, and not having to sit in a classroom full of
annoying kids, this makes the experience of living through a
pandemic much better. Also, I do hate how gyms and movie
theaters are close because now I can't make us of my memberships
to Blink fitness and AMC theatres.
>
> Mr. Corona Virus, you have made Mankind realize who is the
biggest menace to our way of life, that washing our hands is
essential, and that using hand sanitizer every day throughout
our day is a necessity. So due to your spreading worldwide in
almost every country on this planet causing chaos on
Supermarkets because some people are being stupid enough to buy
3 months' worth of toilet paper, you Mr. Corona have become a
pandemic, so congratulations. But this fame you have gotten
won't last a long time as the world is coming together to
contain you and put an end to your pandemic. For example, the
State of New York is working tirelessly to stop your spread
public areas are closed, so are gyms, schools, movie theaters,
bars and much more just to stop your spread in one of the most
important places in the world. Thus, Mr. Corona Virus I can
assure you that this pandemic won't last long and that you will
be old news in just a few months.

I like the fact you mention people ignoring the issue. The
corona Virus could have been stopped from spreading if people
payed attention to it more and had taken action faster. -

Dear Mr Coronavirus,
You have infected my city enough. Don't you feel that it is
about time that you leave everyone alone. People are dying day
by day even my loved ones are affected by it. You cause stress
in not only people that you posses but the ones that worry about
it take on more stress wondering if their loved ones will make
it through. Personally you make me stress, my step father is
possessed by you and so is my grandmother. You make things much
harder for me and family and i believe other people can relate
as well. Some people couldn't even watch their loved ones pass
away and others barely got a chance.
Now I ask you why do you have to be like this everyone else is
already dealing with their daily problems in life and then you
show up and add even more on top of that. So i write you this
letter not because it's an assignment but because you put enough
worries on me and everyone else can you please just leave.
Sincerely, Aaron Sukhu
