Many students know someone who had COVID-19
November 4, 2020
A lot of students say they have known someone personally who has been infected by the virus.
According to “10 Surprising Facts about Coronavirus, by Jennifer L.W Fink,” Interestingly, the CDC thinks even people who don’t have any symptoms can still get it but as well as that some people a year before corona spread at an alarming number might have had COVID but did not know. As well as the confirmation of the knowledge that COVID could stay on whatever surface it was touched by for several. Usually, some people thought that it did not get passed on through physical touch. It was thought commonly that older people were the only ones were really at risk until it was found that babies weak immune system makes them bigger target. People who had contact or was infected by the virus can still be infected by it as many times over so the best bet is keeping safe and clean. The vaccine is still up in the air for an actual date and time but doctors and scientist presume it will be ready for the world by next year.
“I haven’t heard of any of my family member caught Corona not even any of my friends so its not really affecting me,” senior Michael Rodriguez said.
Meanwhile, others oppose this opinion.
“Some of my family caught Corona; two of my cousins and my uncle had the virus for a bit but they are good now and they tested negative so I’m not worried about it anymore,” senior Diego M. said.
In addition, the coronavirus can spread quickly; social distancing with family is the best option.
“Even family members in different states have caught the virus. One of my friends who I work with caught it, and I quarantined myself from my kids for a week until I was sure I was negative,” parent Genesis Rivera said.

(Judge) I liked the article, I don’t know many people who have had covid or have , but the article bought up good points, the writer did a very good job , People should really look out for covid and make sure to stay safe :).

(Judge) Overall, I enjoyed reading this article and looking at both viewpoints. I know some people who caught COVID, so we all had to keep our distance. From the outside, COVID doesn’t seem to affect others much (they could be asymptomatic, not as severe or no one they know has it), but overall it does matter. People are getting sick because of other people’s choices and there has been thousands of deaths. This was a good article but there was a couple grammatical errors to be fixed. Sanitize and social distance!

(Judge) The person that made this article did a good job. I think everyone need to be careful about covid. This gives us good information about it
Itzel Camargo • Nov 5, 2020 at 1:37 pm
(Judge) I think that the writer did a good job, I liked that he used other students statements and even an adults statement. I also think that people should still be worried about COVID even if you haven’t been affected personally.

(judge) I think they did a very good job with this article. I really like this article and think that they made some good points. It was very well informed and has good information involving covid. I think that people should still care about the disease even if it doesn’t affect them or their families.

(Judge). Great article, addressed many great points. There were a few sentences that felt incomplete, but overall a good read.
Liliana Bautista • Nov 5, 2020 at 8:50 am
(Judge) I like how the reporter made sure to get both points of view. No matter if you know someone or don’t that has/had the virus everyone is going through the same thing. When you go out in public all that is on your mind is “6 feet away”, “my mask”, “did you apply hand sanitizer”. You hear someone cough or sneeze and get scared, start backing away from that person. But the truth is a person can be next to you and have COVID-19 and no one would know, because some might not get the symptoms.

(Judge) I do agree with this article, it may be uncommon for some people to have their families or/and friends to be infected by this pandemic, but for some people has happened, and know that they had been infected by someone close that also had the virus, it is really dangerous for people to be near, even if it’s depressing to see someone close infected, we have to stay away from them for your safety and others.
Celeste Venegas • Nov 5, 2020 at 8:07 am
(Judge) I really liked this article. I think this was very well done because the article shows the great impacts or non-impacts that people have been going through because of disease but also the different opinions that people have because of the impacts many of them have had from the disease. As well, I liked all the information that was included because it helps well inform people about what have been impacts of the virus and the thoughts about how it can spread as well as how it is better to stay safe.
Jaime Trevino • Nov 5, 2020 at 8:06 am
(judge) This was a good article. Telling us about the corona and providing us with about of information on vaccine. Interviews were given to see how many people of ones family had been affected. Also gave info about how people at the beginning only thought the older people were at risk but babies are to.
Diana Juarez • Nov 5, 2020 at 8:06 am
(Judge) I think you did a Great Job! I like that you just got to the point and also like the quotes that you put in the ending. You added good information like “even people who don’t have any symptoms” I like how you included this and many other pieces of information but Great Work Love the Article 🙂

(Judge) I like hw you spoke on the important fact that anyone can get covid, not just older people. As well as how covid has affected people differently. Some have personally experienced while others have not. Since, I like how you added that although some haven’t been affected by it personally, it still is spreading readily, which is true. Social distancing, wearing masks and staying at home are the best ways to stop the spread of covid. So I agree with your article. Very well written and a nice reminder to stay safe. (:

(Judge) I enjoyed reading your article because you added important information as how the virus affects everyone despite their age, I also like how you added different views for this situation.
Noe Cintora • Nov 4, 2020 at 8:13 pm
(Judge) I like your article because you showed different views of the same situation and how it affects everyone differently.
Diana Flores • Nov 4, 2020 at 5:54 pm
(Judge) Great work!! I really like how you added information about the virus not just affecting older people but babies too. I also liked that you added the opinion of people who knew a family member or someone close to them get the virus and how they felt towards it.
Diana Flores • Nov 4, 2020 at 5:46 pm
(Judge) Great work! I really like how you added information about the virus not just affecting older people but babies too. I also liked that you added the opinion of people who knew a family member or someone close to them get the virus and how they felt towards it.
Soledad Chavez • Nov 4, 2020 at 2:14 pm
(Judge) I really like that you addressed points of how people are staying safe. I also liked that you included the third view of how people who have had a family member or someone close to them, but i would have liked to see how it affected the teachers.
Roberto Garcia • Nov 4, 2020 at 2:13 pm
(Judge) Great job on the article, good points added and good information about the virus now also affecting little babies. But I Think we should all be careful still if they were already cured from the virus. Yes it is a relief for someone especially a family member to be cured, but we should still be careful even after since recently it was proven that many can regain the virus even if they got cured before. Everyone should be careful. But great Job on the Article.

(Judge) Great work! I like this article because it was relatable, factual, and it gave a good understanding of what is going on with Covid-19.
Jesse Rodriguez • Nov 4, 2020 at 1:14 pm
I like that I can relate to this story because I know some that did have Covid. Some thing you can improve on is getting information of how it affected other people
damien miramontes • Nov 4, 2020 at 1:03 pm
I personally think you did a great job on this article and i could agree how some people who feel great and have no symptom’s could also get the corona, and i believe that a vaccine wont be ready to release till 202or even late 2021. one thing you can improve is little more info because this type of topic has an endless information.
Jobani Delgado • Nov 4, 2020 at 1:03 pm
I liked that you did your research on how many people got covid, although one thing I think you should have done is get more quotes from different people.
Isaac Carlos Sarabia • Nov 4, 2020 at 10:34 am
I think you did a good job researching your topic. I like how you put what students had to say, but I would like to hear how Covid-19 affected teachers.
Miguel A Sanchez • Nov 4, 2020 at 10:28 am
Judge) I agree and i like the two perspectives from different people and who showed that they were cautions of the virus and keeping each other safe
Ashley Jade Ramirez • Nov 4, 2020 at 10:24 am
I like your article you brought up some really good information and really talked about your topic in depth. And this is a real serious topic and some people don’t really take it serious, I also know a couple of people who have gotten sick.
Lorena Cabrales • Nov 4, 2020 at 10:19 am
Something you can add in your article is the way COVID is affecting the people and since the person had family members that got COVID add the symptoms they had and how they got all better. Just a bit more information about it.
Emmanuel Velasco • Nov 4, 2020 at 10:17 am
Judge. I believe this was a good article as it addressed various point of views with no bias. However, the title to a head line should be capitalized.
Areli Jacobo • Nov 4, 2020 at 10:16 am
(judge)I think you did a great job because you included both views. I also like how you added that third view of people who have had family member catch the virus, but were later on not worried about it.
Evelyn Alvarez • Nov 4, 2020 at 10:15 am
Judge) I agree, my neighbors had the virus in April, then later on someone from my dads side of the family passed away. Just to be clear, these are only a few of the people who I know had the virus. I definitely know more people who have gotten sick, but had different experiences. Some say it’s just like a cold, others say it’s the worst thing they’ve ever experienced.
Lorena Cabrales • Nov 4, 2020 at 10:12 am
I like your article you did great on it you put the in information that is provided and you did great in how you put it in both different views of the people who had sick family members and others who didn’t it. Is good to know that there family members who caught it are good now since it’s something serious and I’ve heard that many people are dying from it.
denise garcia • Nov 4, 2020 at 9:27 am
I liked your article and i liked how you included 2 different points of views or like how you included people who don’t know and people who do!
Irene Carrera • Nov 4, 2020 at 9:20 am
I think you did a great job on your article, you put both views of people who have had sick family members & others who have not had any sick family members
Irene Carrera • Nov 4, 2020 at 9:18 am
I think you did a great job on researching about your topic. It’s good to hear when students say they don’t have any friends or family members who have caught it because there are students who have family members or know someone that passed away.
Angel Gutierrez • Nov 4, 2020 at 8:32 am
I like your article I think you brought up some good points and good information and it’s good to be well informed about this because this is something we shouldn’t be taken lightly.
