Virus Under the Microscope: Act Three

Title

Virus Under the Microscope: Act Three

Description

A play-with-a-play for teachers, parents and students about the COVID -19 virus with the introduction and naming of more viruses. This educational story (play) concludes with hope.

Lab Tech #1 and Lab Tech #2 had been assigned to different labs. Over 6 weeks have passed since they have worked together.

According to the Worldometer.info website, as at August 05, 2020, 23:34 Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) worldwide there has been 18,954,433 cases of Coronavirus (COVID-19) and 710,022 deaths and 12,139,005 recovered. In the US there has been 4,971,644 cases and 161,571 deaths and 2,527,220 recovered. In Canada, there has been 118,140 cases and 8,962 deaths and102,773 recovered.

Fear of a second wave of infections as bad as or worse than the first wave is making everyone appropriately cautious. Canadians are increasingly wearing protective face masks as they emerge from months of isolating at home to curb the spread of COVID-19.

The pandemic's continuation is highlighting the need for people everywhere to take action to crush the
curve of cases. Regrettably, many are not taking the required action. People are failing to understand
that inaction anywhere threatens people everywhere.
