Understanding COVID-19
COVID-19 is a disease caused by the coronavirus, which was first discovered in Wuhan, China, in
December 2019. It quickly spread across the globe. Common symptoms include fever, cough, and trouble
breathing. Some people may also feel very tired or lose their sense of taste and smell.
The virus spreads through tiny drops from coughing, sneezing, or talking, and by touching
surfaces that have the virus on them. To protect yourself and others, wash your hands often with soap and
water, use hand sanitizer when soap isn't available, wear a mask in crowded places, and keep a safe
distance from others.
Vaccines have been created to help prevent serious illness from COVID-19. Getting vaccinated is
an important step to protect yourself and those around you. Following health guidelines and staying
informed can help stop the spread of the virus and keep everyone safe and healthy. 【題組】32. According to the article, how can we prevent getting COVID-19?
