Why is it important to make wise choices?

Are you aware of what's been happening recently? Covid-19 is taking a really big impact on our lives and has changed 2020. Coronavirus is a deadly virus that has spread around a majority of the world and a vaccine is yet to be found.

If you have any symptoms of Covid-19 then please stay home or get tested. It doesn’t hurt anybody to take time out of your day to get swabbed. It takes an average of 5 - 6 days for symptoms to show up after being infected. If you get tested positive for Covid-19 you are sent to a managed isolation home to stay in for an average of 2 weeks. You get tested twice, one at the start of your 2 weeks, and one before you leave.

People have been escaping managed isolation. Due to their actions they have been fined and sent right back. If you escape isolation, you're putting other people's lives in danger and you're putting them at risk. As a result places the escapers have visited were closed off and cleaned thoroughly to keep others safe. This is the perfect example of where people have made stupid decisions that have resulted in them dealing with the consequence.

Please stay safe and follow the restrictions when you're out in public. Get tested if you are showing signs of covid-19 symptoms. Remember covid-19 is an easily spread virus and you need to take it seriously.

This week for writing we have been going over explanations. We have been revising it so that we are reminded of how to write an explanation. We did this so that we are reminded for the term 4 writing test. I created this explanation about corona virus and how making wise choices relates to it. We also went over DRAFT, so that we made sure our writing made sense. I enjoyed doing this as I was able to revise on writing explanations.
