A video made in Belfast which explains the Coronavirus to children has taken the internet by storm.
The animated video was developed by Willis Events & Marketing and features a voiceover by six-year old Bangor boy, Sonny Willis and his two friends Harriott Stephens, 13, and Oliver Stephens, 8.
Aimed at pre-school and primary school children, the video received tens of thousands of hits within hours of its publication, with views growing daily as far as away as Australia and the USA.
According to the video's producers, their aim is to help young children understand what Coronavirus means to them and offer comfort and reassurance during these extraordinary times.
In the video the children explain that Coronavirus is 'an illness that can make people have a high temperature and a cough'.
Asked what they can do to help the video explains: "You can wash your hands with soap and warm water" adding that you need to catch your cough or sneeze 'in your arm or in a tissue'.
Assuring children it will be OK, the video adds: "It's OK to feel worried, things will feel different for a while but the grownups in our lives are there to look after us, their job is to help us feel safe.
"We must remember that we can talk to them about any worries we have."
The video has been endorsed by the Belfast Trust to help explain the current situation to young children.
