Why kids and seniors should not go outside during this COVID-19 pandemic?
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a newly discovered
coronavirus. The virus that causes COVID-19 is in a family of viruses called Coronaviridae.
Antibiotics do not work against viruses. Some people who become ill with COVID-19 can also
develop a bacterial infection as a complication. In this case, antibiotics may be recommended by
a healthcare provider. Most people infected with the COVID-19 virus will experience mild to
moderate respiratory illness and recover without requiring special treatment.
The COVID-19 pandemic is impacting the global population in drastic ways. In many countries,
older people are facing the most threats and challenges currently. Although all age groups are at
risk of contracting COVID-19, older people face a significant risk of developing severe illness if
they contract the disease due to physiological changes that come with aging and potential
underlying health conditions.
Why kids and seniors should not go outside during this covid-19 pandemic? Kids,
especially old people should not go outside. After all, their immune systems and bodies are weak,
especially the seniors, because they are vulnerable and those with underlying medical conditions.
There are several reasons why the elderly are somewhat more vulnerable - they have more chronic
conditions than younger people their aging immune system makes it harder to fight off diseases,
infections, and viruses. Recoveries are usually slower and more complicated. While some mayors
or government officials are letting the kids and seniors go outside. If I were the mayor of my city,
I would not let the kids and seniors go outside. As high school students, we should not let our
family members that are young and old. If kids and seniors keep getting exposed outside, they will
likely get infected. Support for older people, their families, and their caregivers is an essential part
of the country’s comprehensive response to the pandemic. During times of isolation and
quarantine, older people need safe access to nutritious food, basic supplies, money, and medicine
to support their physical health, and social care.
The COVID-19 cases keep increasing, and the vaccines are still not enough for all people
living in this world. The most cases are in the United States with 15,591,709 and with 293,368. In
the Philippines, 442,785 with a total of 8,670 deaths. The Risk of dying older people is over 95%
