Arkansan living in Italy warns the U.S. as COVID-19 spreads
LITTLE ROCK, Ark — It's eerily quiet as the busiest parts of Italy are empty. For the second week, the country is under lockdown to prevent further spread of COVID-19.
"At first, I was reluctant to wear gloves and reluctant to cover my face. You don't want to do that, because then it's scary. It's real," said Christian Jacquez.
Jacquez grew up in Arkansas and he is living in Italy to finish his engineering degree. He said that although life in Italy is much different than in the United States, he fears this virus will treat us much the same as it has overseas.
"Immediate action is required and that's things you can do. You know, stay indoors and don't go out if necessary," said Jacquez.
