My Pandemic Experience

By Jaxon, Age 11

It was a casual day at home, until my parents found out there was a new virus! I had never experienced a virus or a pandemic before. I thought it wasn’t going to be that bad, but it was horrible! 

Everything from wearing masks to school, to learning online, and staying 6 feet apart, has been the WORST THING EVER. School was something that I normally looked forward to. I missed my friends a lot! I missed playing with them, talking to them, and hanging out with them

 Finally, a vaccine arrived and my family got vaccinated! Things were on their way to going back to normal. That is until one of my sisters got covid! Although this was bad news it got worse. My whole family got covid! Luckily, my dad and I were the ones who didn’t get covid. So, off I went to stay with my dad for two whole weeks! I felt sad that I had to go away.

I knew as long as we had hope we would survive. I can now say I have experienced a virus and a pandemic.
