Matthew: Some Canadian  kids are worried that

maybe a little bit more serious than that,

but most of them do just fine and get better quickly.

There's a small portion of people who get more

severe illness and get a pneumonia or an infection

in the lungs and they may end up in hospital.

And here in Canada we have good systems to support people

Matthew: Lots of people think  this comes from a Chinese lab,

and one of the test tubes  spilt and some people think

Some people think that this just  randomly started somehow.

No, it does not come from a Chinese food restaurant.

It does not come from a lab with an accident.

What we know is that it's much more mundane than that.

It probably came from animals that were in this market

Um, and it created, it developed a genetic mutation

that allowed it to start infecting humans.

Matthew: I've heard about people avoiding Chinatown

People are afraid and, you know, when they don't know

and there's sometimes scary headlines about things,

people take reactions that are sometimes not,

There's no reason, if you healthy, there's no reason

not to go out and go to a Chinese food restaurant,

if you're not feeling well, even if you're a little bit

then don't go out, stay at home, take care of yourself

Matthew: There's a clip going  around on TikTok,

of a girl wearing a mask while opening a packet from China.

Do we have to be worried about toys and electronics

There's no evidence at all that this virus

can be transmitted through things like that.

And the virus doesn't live for a long period of time

and your body's systems to reproduce itself

and it can stay in droplets for, on a surface,

depending on temperatures and things like that

for maybe a couple of hours, but in a package

Matthew: Well, I've seen  people wearing masks

all over the place. Is this really helpful?

the virus can get in our saliva, and when we cough or sneeze

So, if I'm wearing a mask, that keeps my secretions in,

If you think that wearing a mask is going to keep you

now I understand, it's not that dangerous.
