My Experiences on the Covid-19 Pandemic
For me, March is the most awaited month of the year for it is
during this time that the grade six learners like me will be
graduating in elementary grade level. Unfortunately, the
excitement turned into fear when the corona virus disease
threatened our country in March, 2020, three days after our
fourth quarter test.
President Rodrigo Roa Duterte announced that the Enhanced
Community Quarantine will be implemented throughout Luzon
and other neighboring islands from March 17, 2020 to April 30,
2020. During this lockdown, it made me sad because I couldn't go
to school, I couldn't play with my friends, and I couldn't do things
I used to do. In buying our commodities, only one member of the
family was allowed to go out. Health protocols were followed like
observing social distancing and wearing of face masks and face
shields in public places. The need of washing the hands with soap
and water or using hand sanitizers and alcohol should also be
done as often as possible to prevent the transmission of virus.
These are just a few of the many changes this pandemic has
brought to my life and to the lives of many people.
I hope and pray that this pandemic will end soon so we can go
back to the normal life that we used to have.
