Most people think that coronavirus is only bad, but coronavirus can also be a good thing. Coronavirus has brought masks up globally and some people are already sick of them, scientists predict that we'll be wearing masks for at least another year before we can take down our masks and face shields so you should try to get used to masks. I have been brought both the positive and negative sides of the whole pandemic I was brought closer in bond with my friends, you only hear about the bad stuff from the news because it's interesting. Worldwide problems have popped up since the big pandemic began which is bad but some people are seeing the good side. With everything that has happened in the past few months, I understand why the news has only focused on the bad side, The Black lives matter movement, the death of George Floyd the Californian wildfire expanded and got taller. A lot of people started bonding better because they had a topic to talk about even if it was nothing personal, if all we did was focus on the negative side then there'd be less hope which would more people to give up and take their life which means that the population would go way down. Some people look down on the positive though so they don't gain the courage to be themselve and be positive.
What do you think?
What's something good that pandemic has brought you?

I really like the topic Tony. There are always positive tings that can come out of bad situations. Overall, I think your summary could have been better organized and written. Stay more focused on one topic for awhile, such as the postives of the situation. You jump around a lot. Also, be sure to comment back more frequently next time as well.
I think that everyone is getting sick of this virus, but like you said, scientist say that we will have to continue doing what we are doing right now. I personally don't really mind the masks, but they are getting old real quick and I know that there are quite a few people that would agree with me. I also think that what we are doing is helping, not as much as it could be but still helping.
I do believe that some people are being a little over dramatic with the pandamic. Yes, I understand it is a big deal and should be taken seriously, but just looking at the deaths from it, they are not all just from the Corona Virus, many of the people had extra health issues. I do think masks and social distancing help the situation, even though many people don't like doing it.
I think the pandemic has effected many people mostly in bad ways. Like when it comes to money or education. But trying to think positive about the virus I feel we have gain a lot of knowledge from what to expect if something like this happens again.
I think a lot of the issues we see on the news either don't show how extreme the actual situation is or make it seem way larger than it actually is. It's got to be hard for the news channels and social medias to actually share all of the facts, versus only the interesting facts. This breeds fear, which leads me to the point that I do agree that we cannot lose hope. Things will get better, which could have a different defintion than what we expect. As for something good that has come out of this for me, I'm high risk for the virus and was terrified when it was starting to be spoken of. I thought I would contract it easily and from there it'd all be downhill. This has really helped me with my fear factors. My faith has grown so much throughout this, as weird as it seems.
I think that people are being over dramatic about this pandemic just a little bit. Yes masks help and so does social distancing. But not everyone that has had corona died from it. Most people had other health issues and just had to have corona on top of that. I think people are taking this whole thing too far and we should focus on slowly going back to normal schedules.
I think that these problems are way too blown out poprtion. The mask that people are wearing are making people have health issues in the long run. If your breathing in your own air constantly then your just going to cause lung issues with your body. Mask arent really helping prevent the carona. Because if the carona is so air born then how are mask closing all holes in your air way to prevent the virus.
I agree that you can not only look at the down side, the corona virus has brought us all a lot closer to our family and friends. It also makes you appreciate what you have because it could all be taken away in a second. Obviously the corona virus is a really bad disease and people need to take it seriously but looking at the bright side never hurts!
I think if we only looked for the positives we would be lying to ourselves. You cannot hide the fact that the virus is dangerous. You can't make positivity out of millions of cases and hundreds of thousands of deaths. The pandemic has helped me reflect on life and all the things I've done. It also was like one big vacation from school and the normal everyday life and routine.
I agree, the pandemic has brought a lot of negative stuff and has made many businesses close down and go bankrupt. But it has also helped people in some way, it has also helped me have a better bond with friends and family. The only thing I don't like are the masks.
