it is strange because humans in all of our technology and intelligence take this much damage from one virus. issues like this are incredibly dangerous as it led to many millions of deaths. However, most germs can be killed with hand sanitizer but the bad germs are the internal germs.

What did i learn through this research

Through this research i learned that not all people have access to healthcare and cant afford medicine. This issue with the world caused by greed allows new illnesses to quickly spread through the world through the poor people who cant afford healthcare. Finally, the distrust in the governments and departments leads to people breaking the safety rules that protect the rest of the population and the people create unintelligent theories about the cause to give blame to a people for being where the virus mutated.

What do i hope happens next?

I hope people would place more trust in the government that is trying to protect them and to develop more technology for fighting illnesses. Overall I want sickness to be a thing of the past, I want people to work together to make sure illnesses do not spread because in general, diseases and viruses and bacteria are truly terrifying things.

This picture shows a modern example of what a virus can do, it really shows how many people can suffer from a new virus even in modern times. In all the continents there are deaths to the millions. After a four year lockdown and many countries seeming to go "overboard", 59% of Americans believe Covid 19 to be gone, but it is only blocked via vaccines our government developed for its people.

This image is a prime example of germs back before modern medicine. Plagues back then wiped out millions, in fact, in the 1300's only in England, they reached 5 million deaths to the plague in fact the plague wiped out 75% of all humans. Which could have ended with extinction of all of Europe, Asia, and Africa

Although the black plague is over 700 years old, it still affects us today. Leaving a few unlucky people sick or dead each year, the governments of the world have not yet eradicated the disease. Even though not as prevalent and dangerous as it was all those years ago, the fact that it still kills some people is scary to think about.
