Once upon a time there were two girls called Kaitlyn and Lexi..
... .And two boys, Jake and Allister
YESS MOOOM!
Jake, Allister, Lex and Katy!!! Come down this instant! Breakfast is ready and it's already 10 in the morning!
CAN YOU GUYS BE QUIET? THE TV IS SHOWING SOMETHING IMPORTANT AND ALL YOU ARE DOING IS ARGUING ABOUT IT! THE CORONA VIRUS IS A VERY DEADLY ONE AND SINCE IT HAS COME LET US SEE WHAT PRECAUTIONS WE CAN TAKE! Now, let us all see what we can buy in the local market so that we can get ready for the virus coming here!
What could that warning sign possibly mean?
!
Soon finishing their food, Jake goes to their TV and notices something!!
DANGEROUS VIRUS FINALLY REACHES BANGALORE!!! GET TO SAFETY BY WEARING MASKS AND GLOVES WHEN OUTSIDE!!
Bzz bzz! Don't worry! We shall give you a letter so that you can see what are the safety protocols! The letter also has the list of things you need to buy to go through this lockdown! Bye bye till then!
When Jake turns on the volume-
Wait what, Allister?!?! It is just because of your carelessness that no one likes you!
Oh no! The Corona virus has come to Bangalore!!
Stop arguing guys! If there will be a lockdown, I can't go for skating anymore!
Ugh! Stop freaking out for this weak virus! No one cares. Anyway, Nerdy Jake said it so it's useless to us!
Jake calls all his siblings to tell the news.
Y-y-yes m-mom!
After the family heard the bell ring, they went to see who it was and it was man wearing a mask, giving them a letter Now, they are seeing what the letter means!
Hmm.. This virus looks serious so next time I'll go out, I'll wear a mask-just like the post man!
There! I washed the letter's package thoroughly as the virus can also reach people from surfaces!
Wow! This letter looks long! Let's read it!
From the Government,Hello! If you have opened this letter, we hope you have washed it. Anyway, there is a deadly virus roaming around the world and today has reached Bangalore. These are the things you need to buy-Masks ,Gloves ,food, essential things etc.Kindly buy these as we shall be having a lockdown and getting this will be difficult then. (read next page)
Oh, but Allister, I can't bear the thought of my skating sir getting the virus, forget it, I want him to be okay so I'll cancel the class..
The next part says that we need to maintain a 6 feet distance from people when outside!
Come for lunch now, kids! Do all this later!
Well, don't worry! We can always take online sessions instead of meeting!
Jake, what about our band? If there is a lockdown, how do we do it?
Oh wonderful! The kids are finally discussing about this! It's nice to know that daily activities can also be done in another way without contact! Well, I better tell the kids' dad to come before the lockdown back to the house or else he'll be stuck in the US! Oh, I'll do one thing! I'll ask the children to see what all we can buy and then that way they'll also see what all are essential at these times... Even in these hard times something can be learnt and even the skill of something improved!
Meanwhile,
The children searched the internet for some time and decided to get these-
I'll help too! I'd love doing anything related to research!
I'll go research about this virus on the web!
Hey Jake, why don't we make a song on Covid for our band?
Wow, that's an excellent idea!
