I wanted to know why some people who get COVID-19 get it so bad.

to do work and I could never do the work. Yeah, but we're not in school anymore. That's not an issue.

That's not what he's talking about. Okay, so that's what I want to figure out what is the issue?

When he says you don't finish anything, what is he pointing at that you're not finishing? What is he

with dyslexia. What else? Okay, so that's the only thing I could kind of equate to that. So I need

help to figure that one out. Figure out what? Most people are lazy about staying healthy, especially at
