Сегодня мы прочитаем кусочек статьи о правдах и мифах о короневируса. И информарованными будете, и английский потренируете👍

🔺Children cannot catch COVID-19
All age groups can become infected. In fact, children are just as likely to become infected, but their symptoms tend to be less severe.

🔺COVID-19 is just like the flu
It causes illness that does, indeed, have flu-like symptoms. However, the overall profile of COVID-19 is more serious. The exact mortality rate is likely to be many times higher than that of seasonal flu.

🔺You have to be with someone for 10 minutes to catch the virus
The longer someone is with an infected person, the more likely they are to catch the virus, but it is still possible to catch it in less than 10 minutes.

🔺Home remedies can cure and protect against COVID-19
No home remedies can protect against COVID-19, including vitamin C, garlic, and sipping water every 15 minutes. The best approach is to wash your hands regularly and to avoid crowded places.

NEW WORDS:
🔺to infect: заразить
🔺severe: серьезный
🔺mortality rate: уровень смертности
🔺home remedy: домашние средства
🔺to avoid: избегать
