Answer:

1) The text is about coronavirus

2) It is called coronavirus because viruses are named based on their genetic structure to facilitate the development of diagnostic tests, vaccines and medicines. Virologists and the wider scientific community do this work, so viruses are named by the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses.

3) The symptoms of flu are:

fever* or feeling feverish/chills.

cough.

sore throat.

runny or stuffy nose.

muscle or body aches.

headaches.

fatigue (tiredness)

some people may have vomiting and diarrhoea, though this is more common in children than adults.

4) Although all age groups are at risk of contracting coronavirus, older people face significant risk of developing severe illness if they contract the disease due to physiological changes that come with ageing and potential underlying health conditions.

5) You can visit the nhs website to find out more about coronavirus

6) So that the germs do not spread and you can catch them into your elbow.

7) So that if you have any germs on your hands, they won't go onto your face, mouth,nose or eyes.

8) You can wash your hands frequently, stay 2 m apart in public and wear a face mask/face covering to prevent germs. Isolate for 2 weeks if you have symptoms
