The Danger of Coronavirus

by M. Habibi Husni

COVID-19 or often called coronavirus has been a serious problem in these few months. This virus has caused 43,569 death cases, which is not a small number. But most people still don’t know how dangerous this virus is. This ignorance is also a big factor in how fast this virus spread. Because of this, it’s important to know what is the danger of coronavirus.

First, this virus attacks our respiratory system. This virus first infects a few of our lung cells. When the immune cells start to come, this virus starts to infect our immune cells and make them attack everything including healthy lung cells. This makes our lungs damaged very fast. The respiratory system is very crucial to us, and when it gets damaged, it can cause serious disease and even death.

Second, it’s victims are mainly elderly people and people who are in serious underlying health conditions. This is because their immune system is not strong enough to fight viruses. We must keep them safe because it’s really hard to save them when they get infected. But keep in mind that people of all ages can be infected.

Lastly, it spreads easily. This virus is spread by droplets from cough and sneeze. This virus is also strong enough to stay on a solid surface, up to a few days. Because of unhealthy life and too much social interaction, it’s no doubt that this virus can spread easily.

This virus is new, but it’s very dangerous. Because of this, we should reduce social interaction, so that the spread can be diminished. And also wash your hand frequently, and keep yourself healthy.
