What's this?

It`s not the Bubonic Plague! It is

an upper respiratory virus. For healthy people,there should be no significant risk...just those with other health conditions or weak immune systems. The best way to prevent spreading a virus is to wash your hands after touching items or people. Viruses are actually fragile outside the body and can be washed away. The problem occurs once they enter the body and begin to reproduce in the cells.
