Utah is prepared in some ways but there are some things we can do better because the coronavirus can spread through people and you can spread it when you don’t even feel sick so Utah should have made shops or restaurants earlier than they did now.

I think that Utahns were prepared for this pandemic because many schools and jobs are now online or sending you homework. Also many people are social distancing and washing their hands too. Doing this can slow down Covid-19. I think that people should try to do social distancing more because if we don’t, it will increase the pandemic. We were better prepared because it happened in China first so we knew what to do before it reached the USA. Even though we were better prepared, we could still improve our health care as stated in “Are We Ready for the Next Pandemic Article.” In the future, Covid-19 could help the world be more prepared for another pandemic that will happen, but as Utahns we were fortunate to be as prepared as we were for with Covid-19.

I think Utahns did a good job too! They did do a good job closing things and learning from others.
