Write a dialogue between two friends about Coronavirus

Mina: Hello Rina. What are you doing?


Rina:  I am reading an article about Coronavirus. 
Mina:  I do not have any idea about it. Will you share with me some information? 
Rina: Of course. Why not?  Coronaviruses are a type of virus. There are many
different kinds, and some cause disease. A newly identified coronavirus,
SARS-CoV-2, has caused a worldwide pandemic of respiratory illness,
called COVID-19. The name "coronavirus" is derived from Latin ‘corona’,
meaning "crown" or "wreath".
Mina: Is there anything?
Rina:  Certainly. COVID-19 was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan,
China, and from there it spread globally.
Mina:  What are the common symptoms of Coronavirus? 
Rina: Common symptoms include fever, cough, fatigue, shortness of breath, and
loss of smell and taste. The time from exposure to onset of symptoms is
typically around five days but may range from two to fourteen days.
Mina: How can someone be affected by Coronavirus? 
Rina: COVID-19 spreads mainly through droplets released into the air when an
infected person coughs or sneezes. The droplets generally do not travel
more than a few feet, and they fall to the ground (or onto surfaces) in a few
seconds — this is why physical distancing (two meters or six feet) is
effective in preventing the spread.
Mina: How can we keep us safe from coronavirus?
Rina: Preventive measures to reduce the chances of infection include staying at
home, avoiding crowded places, keeping distance from others, washing
hands with soap and water often and for at least 20 seconds, and avoiding
touching the eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed hands.
Mina: Is there any vaccine for immunity against the virus?
Rina: Prior to the pandemic, work to develop a vaccine against similar diseases
like SARS and MERS established knowledge about the structure and
function of coronaviruses; this knowledge enabled scientists to develop
COVID – 19 vaccines during 2020.
Mina: Thanks for sharing information about the virus. I am really grateful to you.
Rina: It's my pleasure.
Mina: Thank you. I have to go now. Good bye.
Rina: You are welcome. Good bye.
