(CNN)Teen activist Greta Thunberg is urging the world to listen to scientists  Hehe as she describes the devastating impact the coronavirus pandemic is having around the world.

"During any crisis it is always the most vulnerable people who are hit the hardest, and that is children,"    she said.
"Especially in the global south, people in the poorest parts of the world, especially people living in conflict zones and refugee camps," she added.

Appearing on a CNN Coronavirus Town Hall  Hehe , hosted by Anderson Cooper and CNN Chief Medical Correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta, Thunberg addressed misinformation around the disease, including how it was originally believed that Covid-19 affected only elderly people.

"Yes, this does affect elderly people a lot, but we also have to remember that this is also a children's rights crisis ," she warned, "because children are the most vulnerable in societies."
"Children do get the virus and they also spread it."

A role model for many young people around the world, 17-year-old Thunberg self-isolated from her family earlier this year after believing she had contracted the virus -- although she has never been tested.
She explained that in her home country of Sweden, "you don't get tested unless you are in need of medical help."
Thunberg self-isolated anyway because, she said, it was "the right thing to do."   Hilarious


Despite having had what she describes as mild symptoms, she posted about her experience on social media to raise awareness about the virus and the appropriate action to take.

"Many people don't even notice that they have symptoms and then they might spread the virus without even knowing it,"   she said.
"So we have to be extra careful, because our actions can be the difference between life and death for many others."

"We're talking about washing our hands and staying home  Hilarious  but for many people in the world, they do not have access to clean water or sanitation, to soap," she said.

"They may not even have a house to stay home in."
"That's why we need to help the people who are most vulnerable to this crisis in ways that we might not think about in the global north," she added.

Despite sounding the alarm over the virus , Thunberg said she does see a silver lining to all this.

"People are starting to realize that we are actually depending on science and that we need to listen to scientists and experts.

"And I really hope that stays," she said, adding that she hopes it will apply to other crises "such as the climate crisis and the environmental crisis."    Bwahahahaha!!!
