The main focus of my topic was to inform everyone on what type of virus we are going against. The more cases we get the more research will show us what makes the virus tic because there is still a lot we don’t know about it so far and to me Covid-19 was a pretty interesting topic to write about because I like the study of other living things even though I’m not really a scientist but aye you don’t need to be to do research. The audience I was projecting to is for the people that doesn’t really know the depth of the virus.

“emerging pandemic data are typically reported at the country or regional level. This allows for

interesting comparisons between countries [4–6] and for information from an earlier affected

country to be used to slow the outbreak in other places. For instance, South Korea was able to

“flatten their outbreak curve” through early and widespread testing as well as strict quarantine

policies [7]. However, country-level analyses still hide more local dynamics that are important

to the overall epidemic progression [8, 9]. For example Lin et al. (2020) found that, in China,

traffic control and social distancing measures did not work effectively everywhere. Instead,

these measures depended on income and population size [9].” I chose this quote because i find it very interesting how well other countries are dealing with the virus so far.
