The number of lives claimed by the coronavirus epidemic has reached over 2,600 globally, as of today. With more than 77,000 confirmed cases of 2019-nCoV infection, the spread of the disease is far from coming to an end. We have seen how the coronavirus has caused a mass hysteria where people are using unusual and bizarre items to protect themselves from getting infected.
Similarly, a mother living in China’s Hubei Province has built a makeshift protection tent for her 7-year-old daughter to prevent her from getting coronavirus while she studies outdoors, reports Daily Mail.
The reason why her daughter needs to go outdoors to study is because the internet connectivity indoors isn’t strong enough. The little girl is currently attending online classes every day because schools have been indefinitely closed in the Hubei province, according to The Indian Express.
The mother used bamboo strips and a large plastic sheet to set up the protection tent for her girl.
Internet connectivity in the Hubei province has been allegedly weak ever since the coronavirus outbreak. Hence, one day, the mother took her phone and took a trip around the village to test the internet strength in different areas. Eventually, she found a spot for her daughter to study in near the entrance of the village.
