COVID-19
The adventure of a lifetime! No doubt
that’s what Quebecers Diane and
Bernard Menard hoped for when they
boarded the Diamond Princess cruise
ship on January 20. The 3700
passengers and crew were departing
from Yokohama, Japan. They were
embarking on a 14-day ocean voyage
to China, Vietnam, and Taiwan.
The Menards’ dream trip would soon
turn into a nightmare. On January 25,
an 80-year-old passenger was
whisked off the boat when it arrived
in Hong Kong. At a hospital she was
diagnosed with COVID-19. It’s a
potentially dangerous – and highly
contagious – strain of a family of
diseases called coronaviruses.
A Bad Cold – Or Much Worse?
Coronaviruses cause diseases in birds
and mammals. They can also cause
common colds in humans. The viruses
primarily spread when infected
people cough or sneeze. Germs can
live on surfaces for up to nine days.
Some exposed people never show
symptoms. Others develop fever,
cough, and shortness of breath in two
to 14 days. Often, COVID-19 is no
worse than a bad cold. But for those
with heart and lung issues or weak
immune systems, it can turn into
pneumonia or bronchitis and prove
fatal. Elderly people are especially
vulnerable.
Quarantined!
Fearing the spread of COVID-19
throughout the ship, the crew sailed
the Diamond Princess back to Japan.
Health officials then quarantined all
passengers. They were confined to
their cabins for 14 days.
Still, by mid-February, 454 passengers
developed the bug, including 15
Canadians. The Menards, both 75
years old, were among them. The sick
received medical treatment. The 131
Canadians on the ship who tested
negative returned to Canada on
February 21. Once home, they were
quarantined on military bases for 14
more days.
A Fast-Moving Virus
The world first learned of
COVID-19 in December, after some
pneumonia cases appeared in the
Chinese city of Wuhan, home to 11
million people.
Ground zero was likely a seafood
market. On that site, some merchants
illegally sell marmots, birds, rabbits,
bats, snakes, and other creatures.
Experts believe that the virus jumped
from infected wildlife to humans,
then began spreading from person to
person.
The Chinese Response
China took massive measures to try to
contain the outbreak. It suspended all
travel in many regions. Outdoor
activities were banned. Tens of
millions of citizens were quarantined
in their homes. In late January, a
1000-bed hospital was built in just six
days to treat cases.
News of the outbreak coincided with
China’s huge Lunar New Year travel
season. The holiday was extended to
Learning Plan for This Week: April 13 - 17

discourage people from passing on
the bug through travel.
A “Public Health Emergency”
Yet the disease still spread. On
January 30, the World Health
Organization (WHO) declared COVID-
19 a “public health emergency of
international concern.” It called for
global action to contain the outbreak.
WHO’s director, Dr. Tedros
Gebreyesus, said countries with weak
health systems were most at risk. The
reason? They don’t have the
resources to treat large numbers of
sick people.
Uncertain Outcome
By late February, over 79,000 people
worldwide had developed COVID-19.
More than 2600 had died. The vast
majority were in China. However,
there were 500 cases elsewhere.
Canada had 11 cases but no fatalities.
There was some good news: the
number of new cases in China
appeared to be dropping. But new
instances were reported in Italy, Iran,
and South Korea. Disturbingly, the
victims couldn’t be linked to China or
other confirmed cases.
Dr. Gebreyesus urged countries to
keep working to contain the virus. But
he said they must also prepare for the
possibility that it will become
widespread.
“It’s in our hands now,” he said. “If we
do well within the narrowing window
of opportunity... we can avert any
serious crisis.”
A Class of Killer Diseases
Science has identified hundreds of coronaviruses, but only seven so far have mutated to infect humans – and just two
have resulted in outbreaks. The first was Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), which began in China in 2002. It
infected nearly 8100 people worldwide and caused 774 deaths. Canada was the hardest-hit country outside of China,
with 44 people dying of the illness before it was contained in July 2003.
The second serious outbreak was Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, or MERS. It started in Saudi Arabia in 2012 but
didn’t escalate until 2014. It was a virulent version of the strain. By the time it was controlled in 2015, it had infected
1329 people, killing nearly half of them.
Should You Worry?
There is no vaccine yet to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Still, your chances of catching the virus are very low.
Why? Because Canada has been acting to prevent COVID-19 from taking hold here. Hospitals were alerted to look out
for possible cases. And officials brought in airport screening procedures in Vancouver, Montreal, and Toronto. As well,
people suspected of having the disease have been quarantined.
There are measures you can take, too. Wash your hands thoroughly, avoid touching your eyes, nose, or mouth, and
avoid people with flu symptoms.
avert: to prevent something bad or harmful from happening
quarantine: to keep a person or animal away from others to stop a disease from spreading
virulent: extremely dangerous and deadly
