Cancel USF classes due to coronavirus outbreak in Tampa Bay
Why this petition matters
The Florida Department of Health has now declared a health emergency in the area as numerous new accounts of (COVID-19) have spread.While TWO individuals have been diagnosed positive with the corona virus in the Hillsborough county (report date 03/04). It's important to understand the size and scope of the issue in more detail. We know already that this virus could've very well got out and infected many others in communities but have yet to show any symptoms due to the nature of its structure. This introduces a frightening risk if a student has the virus, is not show any symptoms yet, and is spreading it before being diagnosed. There is no vaccine or cure for COVID-19 virus at this point. The most effective measures available currently are non-pharmaceutical preventative measures such as frequent hand-washing, avoiding contact with sick people, and avoiding public gathering.
