CORONAVIRUS, YOU CHOSE THE WRONG SPECIES
Hello Coronavirus, It seems you got lost while looking for a planet to inhabit so you came to the wrong place. You see in my planet people will unite and become one at times of crisis. Although you can only survive in some of our bodies, we will not allow you to be passed on to others, and this will kill you. Most of us are strong and have strong immune systems which will destroy you and prevent you from infecting the vulnerable! We will stop you from ravaging the bodies of our fellow humans. So you messed with the wrong species. Soon you will become another one of those viruses that humanity succeeded in beating and you will be no more than just a memory; simply because the strong and healthy will consume you and will not pass you on. You messed with the wrong species because we are humans and united we stand. Yes, I know you thought you could easily attack us because for long you have seen us discriminate, you saw our greed, and you watched us victimize each other... What you did not predict is that we are also filled with love. Consequently, during a crisis, we show our true colors, we shed all these ugly layers and we give love control over our lives. Our love glues us together… We will not allow you to thrive, you might be strong enough to beat one of us but you’re utterly weak when we all stand united by love! Goodbye Coronavirus, you messed with the wrong species!
