Said the Pandemic Aren'T You Afraid Yet

SAID THE PANDEMIC   aren't you afraid yet

I've been around a long time.
They call me SARS, MERS and now COVID-19. 
Take precautions, 
be clean and careful
for I descend like an Omen. 
Sneezing, 
coughing, 
bone chilling hot temperatures
that destroy your lungs 
and even your heart. 
I can be Deadly!
I am the result of human misjudgment and interjection, 
from consuming the forbidden, 
overuse of antibiotics, 
and chemical experiments to name a few. 
You know they created me.
So do yourself a favor, 
eat lots of veggies, 
fish, black seed oil,
take your vitamins, 
anything to boost your wimpy immune systems, 
because I refuse to be treated lightly. 
I do show up without knowledge, 
travel in thin air, 
spreading by the slightest of  touches, 
even lingering for a while, 
wherever you may leave me, 
on cart handles, 
door knobs, 
counter tops, 
wash rooms, 
just about any and everywhere. 
So be Cautious and Aware, 
for yes I AM DEADLY 
and will take you
before your time.
